I don't know how people can drink brisk Iced Tea, or any tea with lemon. The brisk is even worse. When I drink iced tea it's black unsweetened. Sometimes I add Splenda or something.
Lemon in tea sucks, I've never liked it, I don't like it on fish either but I love lemonade lol and those bottled or canned teas with that really fake lemon taste are even worse. I hate when you order tea without lemon and they put it in anyway, if you take it out the juice is already in the drink.

I remember once years ago I ordered a sweet tea at McDonald's without lemon, back then they put it in automatically. The girl gave me the cup and I saw the lemon wedge up against the lid and I said to her "I'm sorry I asked for this without lemon" she took the cup back, took the lid off and used a spoon to take the lemon out and then gave me the cup back lol. I told her the tea was already going to taste like lemon now and could I please have a new one, she poured it out as aggressively as she could and then tried to use the same cup for the new tea, the bitch didn't even put ice in the second cup lol. So I asked her for a new cup with ice and she looked like she'd have shot me if she could have lol. That was one of the few times I called and complained to a manager about service, I don't want people to get into trouble or lose a job over something like that but I figured she wasn't someone who was going to be good for their business, I never did see her again.

I don't drink any caffeine with the intention of drinking it. I'll have Coke Zero, or Diet Pepsi, when I want some fizziness, but it's not for the caffeine. It I drink either after like 6pm it's a big disruption to my sleep pattern. I get Jimmy legs and can't fall asleep.
Coke zero has more caffeine than diet coke but it does taste better, diet coke is disgusting IMO, it tastes nothing like coke. Diet Pepsi and Diet Dr Pepper are the only sodas I really drink anymore. Diet cream soda is good too but I can never find it anymore.

It's fun being in a restaurant in Alabama and asking if they have Unsweet Tea.

I've even been in stores where they only have Sweet Tea and a Diet Sweet Tea that has an awful artificial sweetener.
Ordering unsweet tea in the south makes peoples brain explode. I live in Richmond and that's about as "northern southern" as it gets and it still blows their minds. Don't want a god damn sugar rush from my tea

I've also seen people at gas stations or truck stop putting a staggering amount of sugar in their coffee.

Like do you want to make your pancreas explode?

I somtimes use a creamer, but usually just straight black coffee. I never use sugar. 😬

I've had under 15 cups of coffee in my life. Half of them were two years ago during the winter lol.
I've driven a car once in my life without caffeine in my system...I went to a gas station and filled it up... With diesel... It was an 95 octane car.... And I never had a diesel car in my life up to that point.
 
So... You ordered cold water?
God damnit

You literately can't do that here in the states. The spouts are a different size. You'd have to pour it in.
 
God damnit

So.... lukewarm?

I'm not much of a coffee drinker either, up until a couple of years ago if I had coffee I'd have to put so much creamer in it that I had to microwave it after I put the creamer in if I wanted it hot lol. Now I can drink coffee here and there without cream but I still need a couple of drops of liquid sucralose or something, the taste of plain coffee just doesn't sit well with me, I like the smell but not the taste.

Same. I grew up and saw it as a beverage for the elderly, because only old people drank it around here when I was growing up. I drank 4-5 cups one week a few years ago when I was extremely ill and was drinking hot liquid to try and break up congestion. I like the smell a lot more than the taste.
 
Do you ever get those little cuts on your hands or fingers that are right on a crease? Feels like a paper cut but it’s not.
What the heck do you do to heal that?

All the time. The ones that occur on the edges of my index fingers usually turn into gaping cracks over time.

I have company but I have to poop.

Help
Is it the fear of making poop sounds? If so, I usually just put on the water in the toilet sink, it drowns the sound fairly well. Otherwise... It's the smell? Can't help much with that except flush immediately after it goes out the rectum to avoid it spreading.

I wasn't sure how long it would take.
