  - Between Glee, Fringe, and V taking long breaks. Major womp. -- nm - MDH Nov 25, 06:29 6
    - I think the V break will hurt it, even if it comes back paired with Lost. Lost ain't what it used to be. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Nov 25, 06:33 5
      - Dude...this is the final season of L O S T. It will have an audience if for no other reason than to see how it ends. - Jim Nov 25, 06:35

so the host of the thanksgiving dinner I'm attending accidentally ordered *two* turkeys from FreshDirect by mistake. - znufrii Nov 25, 05:55 10
- If way too much then donate it to a Food Bank or Helping Hands mission etc. -- nm - HdnAgnda Nov 25, 06:00 7
  - I don't think you can donate already cooked food to most food banks, shelters and such. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Nov 25, 06:16 5
    - Oh. I don't know how Fresh Direct sends them. -- nm - HdnAgnda Nov 25, 06:21 1
      - *turkey gobble noises* -- nm - shipping box Nov 25, 06:22
    - Wow...hungry people are PICKY!!! nm - Jim Nov 25, 06:17 1
      - if that was really the case, i'd be tempted to take a cooked turkey out something practical and hand it to the first homeless person i saw.' - Elf Andie Nov 25, 06:33
    - nor a thawed turkey. -- nm - loosilu Nov 25, 06:17

some people dont ... drink ... coffee? -- nm - loosilu Nov 25, 05:40 50
- I used to drink multiple iced coffees daily. Now I can't stand the thought of having even one. Gross. - kelly Nov 25, 06:26 2
  - That's becaused iced coffee is an aberration. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Nov 25, 06:37
  - I generally can't stand cold coffee of any sort. -- nm - znufrii Nov 25, 06:33
- Nope...soda for me. Coffee is gross. -- nm - Jim Nov 25, 06:04
- i, who used to be a hard hardcore addict, don't. -- nm - Elf Andie Nov 25, 06:03
- I never used to drink coffee...until my first born...now I have 2 a day with 3 sugars and half and half -- nm - SyrDragon Nov 25, 05:58
- Earl Grey tea first thing in the morning. I drink decaf coffee once or twice a week after dinner. -- nm - LMS Nov 25, 05:57
- Then, there are those who won't drink coffee, unless... - OAE Nov 25, 05:56

  - ~ You poor unfortunate soul! It's sad, but true... ~ - TFox Nov 25, 05:49
- I drink coffee with half and half no sugar from the time I wake up til the time I go to bed (which is quite soon). -- nm - Stacy Nov 25, 05:45
- I have started drinking more in the morning but usually I have it with dessert. I try to limit though to avoid issues with heartburn. -- nm - HdnAgnda Nov 25, 05:44
- Riiiiight... and some people don't breathe oxygen. Whatever. Crazy talk. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Nov 25, 05:43
- I hate the taste; would rather drink a soda. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 25, 05:43 30
  - Word. -- nm - JaxSean Nov 25, 05:44
  - soda has sugar, sugar causes cavities. -- nm - Stacy Nov 25, 05:44 28
    - Unless of course you drinnk...say...Pibb Zero. The "Zero" stands for "zero sugar." Boo yah! nm - Jim Nov 25, 06:04 10
      - what does it have in it as a sweetener? My teeth are bright white and I smoke, but I also professionally bleach my teeth :) -- nm - Stacy Nov 25, 06:07 9
        
        I'm pretty sure it's Splenda. So, 10 years from now, I may be sporting a 3rd eye or something due to too much Splenda... - Jim Nov 25, 06:10 8
        
        I cant stand diet srinks. I ocassionally will cheat with a RedBull or other energy drink, but only like 2 a month. -- nm - Stacy Nov 25, 06:12 7
        
        Red Bull will kill you. It's a fact. -- nm - JaxSean Nov 25, 06:15 5
        
        I've had it with vodka or plain, and even while on drugs and it never killed me -- nm - Stacy Nov 25, 06:21 2
        
        ...yet. -- nm - JaxSean Nov 25, 06:21 1
        
        well nowadays I dont do illegal drugs, and it is fine on my meds and I have like a beer a year. -- nm - Stacy Nov 25, 06:24
        
        And it tastes like cough syrup...I love me a good energy drink...but Red Bull is the suck. -- nm - Jim Nov 25, 06:16 1
        
        (honestly, all of those energy drinks hurt my teeth and are rather disgusting.) - JaxSean Nov 25, 06:21
        
        I used to be the same way until Pibb Zero came out. Now it's all I drink. - Jim Nov 25, 06:13
    - This isn't nearly enough reason for me to drink something that I can't stand the taste of. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 25, 05:50 9
      - Plus, when I drink coffee, I put 3 - 4 sugars and creme, or at Starbucks, shots of caramel. -- nm - JaxSean Nov 25, 05:52 8
        
        how many cavities have you had in the past year? -- nm - Stacy Nov 25, 05:54 7
        
        None. -- nm - JaxSean Nov 25, 06:00
        
        None in 4 years for me. I drink anywhere between 3-5 sodas a day on average. - Will Hunting Nov 25, 05:55 5
        
        you're weird. -- nm - znufrii Nov 25, 05:56 4
        
        The point of food products is to enjoy the taste of them or else we'd all eat the most healthy stuff alone; coffee tastes like ass to me. - Will Hunting Nov 25, 05:57 3
        
        plus there is the added weight gain from consuming soda, thats been shown in previous studies. -- nm - Stacy Nov 25, 06:02 2
        
        And I am cool with that. - Will Hunting Nov 25, 06:12 1
        
        I'm just giving you the talk my dentist gave me, no biggie. I smoke, you drink soda, live and be happy :) -- nm - Stacy Nov 25, 06:14
    - No it doesn't. -- nm - JaxSean Nov 25, 05:45 6
      - nobody brushes after every soda, the sugar stays on your teeth til the next time you brush. -- nm - Stacy Nov 25, 05:47 5
        
        No it doesn't. -- nm - JaxSean Nov 25, 05:49 4
        
        my dentist made me quit soda after 11 cavities in one year. Now I get about one cavity every 2 years. -- nm - Stacy Nov 25, 05:51 3
        
        No it doesn't. -- nm - JaxSean Nov 25, 05:52 2
        
        *fascinated* -- nm - loosilu Nov 25, 05:55 1
