apart from the cost, which can feel, I keep forgetting why it is not a good idea?

pants are not entirely flameproof so please don't go mad with judgemental joy

Well I was so pleased my local Londis is now stocking 2ltrs for £1.39 instead of the usual £1.99 tonight (seriously) so I'm quite happy.

It is very bad, because it goes so well with brandy and I have had lots tonight and I will feel bad tomorrow, so therefore coke is bad?

Coke is nice with vodka in moderation but the drink is bad because it removes organic detritus from a sink with alarming efficiency.

Put a tooth in a glass of coke. ( I used a wisdom tooth not one of my DCs fragile little milk teeth) and the results were enough to put anyone off.

Go onto Tackroom and find the video of the rodeo where the "wranglers" are from a high security prison. See what happens to the horses. Have a strong stomach.

Oh. Well yes, that is terribly bad for you. If you have any about you should hand it in to your nearest MNer for safekeeping immediately.

Seriously though do you need to ask? I get enough surrealism, lack of sleep, time and space perception, loss of libido and generally feeling shite just from raising my children.

no no not coca cola

I don't fancy the heart attack but you never think that sort of thing will happen to you, do you?

spiderslegs, do you use it regularly?

Hi Oily....are you a regular user? Probably nothing to do with your OP but just wondered. Cocaine is illegal...not great as a start. The health problems associated with it I'm sure you're familar with if you have any knowlege of it, its so bad for your heart. I've had a lot of friends who used coke and they all became assholes while they were using. Its so addictive. It can cause you to break peoples hearts :( No judgement still, just telling you the facts. Hope you are alright.

maybe I could survive and benefit from a bit of well intentioned judgeypants though? I don't need a coke habit, worried I might develop one. Cannot seem to get through a week without doing some, it used to be v v occasional

Yeah don't even start on how it enters the country...thats if you live in the UK (which I don't I live in RoI)....criminal gangs, murder, human trafficking...then on a very basic level...what its mixed with....you have no idea, a lot of 'coke' isn't just cocaine. Believe me still no judgement, just the facts

As someone who used to use and used to hang around people who use, sometimes whilst sober....

It turns you into a twat of the highest order. Honestly, you might think your funny, confident, witty etc. but your not, you just sound and look like a twat.

It gives you spots. It makes you grind your teeth and can cause cavaties from the consant grinding. You look sweaty and sniffy and really just not very attractive.

facts are good, thanks

bit of judging won't actually kill me, but you know how scary it can be in AIBU

I forget those facts, my thoughts are 'want some more but it's expensive, am sure there are other good reasons to abstain but I want some more'
