I beg to differ I know for fact my dad drinks 12 cans or more a day. Hell I did at one time but with regular Dr Pepper. It not hard to go through a 12oz can of soda.
Bro drink some water.
Oh I do a ton. I was referring when I was younger.
I have a coworker who has a 1.5L bottle of coke zero beside him everyday.
How big is said coworker? And I remember working in call center when I was younger and always having a 20oz bottle of soda. Looking back I know how dumb that was, but shit I smoked cigarettes back then too so wasn't all they bright.
Regular Coke, sure not hard. Diet, though?
The few people I've known that would drink that much daily drink diet only. It has been pretty obvious throughout my life that people who have no self-control are more likely to go for things like diet sodas and "lite" whatever. I hate sweeteners, I can't stand diet anything both because it tastes bad to me and it makes me feel ill, but to me it still seems like it would be easier to drink 12 cans of diet soda than the same amount of "normal" soda. It's a disgusting amount either way.
