There's a shitton of fancy canned soft drinks (most of them low or no sugar) that only sell direct via websites. I looked into one once and now instagram floods me with their ads. I've been meaning to try some more. Sanzo, Teakoe, Olipop, New Wave Soda, Ugly Drinks, etc.

I love Jone's Berry Lemonade soda. I complain that my taste buds are broken and those helped kill them. Sour and carbonated, very offensive to your tongue, very good.

lmao Sanzo is 35$ for a 12 pack, no thanks guys. Thats part of the appeal of the arnold palmers, I get two of the very large cans that have sugar in them for 2$ but I only drink one on the weekends and it takes me all day it's about the same amount of sugar as a single can of soda, then I get one of the gallon pitchers of sugar-free for 2$, so more than a weeks worth of tea plus lemonade for 4$.

Ill be honest I got very worried for a second after seeing another person say Arnold Palmers are bad after my favorite podcast said that Arizona Iced Tea seems like the kind of drink Steven Paddock would enjoy

IMO it still has too much sugar. I had one of the "Lite" cans today and it's still 150 calories for the 24 oz can, which is more sugar than I like

Try the diet ones, they're pretty similar tasting but they do have that distinct sugar replacement aftertaste. That's the kind I buy in the full pitchers

Coffee is weird. Ill have it every once in a while and Im always like "eh this is fine" and then two weeks ago I went to Starbucks with my coworker and got a white chocolate latte and it was really really good and Ive been to two coffee places since and ordered drinks that sounded equally good but they werent and I dont know enough about coffee to identify why

I usually have one cup of coffee a day. I make mine in a french press, and add soy milk to it. Sometimes whip cream, and then I put caramel syrup on it.

Also, to talk about video game stuff I've noticed:

1. lmao Resident Evil Re:Verse has a Mostly Negative review on steam, which for a free game it must be SO bad

2. Days Gone coming to Steam next month?

3. If I start Persona 5 I will not touch any other video game until I finish it and I want to play other video games like MonHun, but at the same time...........

My favorite Ginger Beer is by the Great Jamaican Brewing Company. It's $10 a 6 pack at the Commissary and even more online otherwise it'd be at the top of the list.

Would definitely recommend using a filter if you're drinking any kind of tap water, it really does make a big difference.

i have been playing some rally racing games for the game boy advance. here are my thoughts on them from worst to best

first is gt advance 2: rally racing, developed by the japanese company "motorsports software technical office" and released in december 2001. gt advance 1 and 3 are really cool mode 7 racing games that kind of feel like 16-bit demakes of gran turismo. unfortunately the engine is not very well suited to the tight corners and undulating terrain of rally racing and the tracks suffer for it. it also has kind of a weird competition structure that's sort of a hybrid of rally and rally cross, where it's stage-based but you're actively competing for position with the other drivers. it's not a bad game but it's outdone both by the other two rally games here and the other two games in the gt advance series

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXHBuSrI6Q0

second is top gear rally, developed by the australian company "tantalus interactive" and released in july 2003. this is a far more technically impressive game; the racetracks are modeled in full 3d and it looks more like a playstation game than a snes game. the cars are also modeled in 3d but seem to be rendered in-game as sprites with fixed rotation frames, which raises the question of why they didn't just use regular 2d sprites, which would have looked better. it's also the most sluggish-feeling game here, but on the other hand it also has way better collision physics than the other two, which is important because the campaign is all rally cross events

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qI0GC-3sGyM

finally, the king of gba rally games is v-rally 3, developed by the french company "vd-dev" and released in july 2002. this one is the real deal and seems to be an attempt at mirroring the colin mcrae rally experience as closely as possible. it has separate rally and rally cross modes, and the rally events have persistent vehicle wear and damage that you have limited time between events to fix. like top gear rally, it also has full 3d environments, but they look even better, and the car sprites are also a huge step up from that game. it even has a cockpit view with the dashboard and steering wheel and driver's hands, and the windshield cracks if you hit something. really an incredible achievement given the hardware they had to work with. the vd-dev guys were real wizards when it came to gba 3d. they even did a port of driver 3 that recreated the open world in full 3d third-person perspective with traffic and combat and everything
