What is the difference between cream, creamy and creaming soda?

 

[FaTz]

Cream is an Substance
Creamy is a Texture
Creaming Soda is a Carbonated Drink

Does the flavour 'Tropical' (for drinks) need any specific fruit to make it tropical? Or is it just a term for 'a flavour we couldn't think of a name for, so we went with Tropical'?

 

[FaTz]

Interesting question there Xcidium...

The "Juice" as we know it in general was originally created by a group of tribes people on a tropical island.

Whilst the women of this tribe would stay at home all day washing and caring for the children the men would go off searching for fresh fruits. The men would come back to the tribe and give the women all the fruit they managed to find. The women would the stand over buckets, and put each piece of fruit between there huge tribe like thighs and squeeze untill all the liquid from the fruit came out.

So the juice you know as "Tropical Juice" is made up of different tropics' style fruit, just like it was when it was first created.

Hey Fatz I think he was refering to the three varieties of soda; cream soda, creaming soda and creamy soda.

You are dim

Yeah, you see, I was going to go with Pineapple.

And Fatz, I'm sure that's not fruit juices.

i wonder how long it will be before humans come with bios' that you can flash.
overclock our hearts and brains.
mod your arm to have a stat readout.

would be handy.

 

[astrosmurf]

i believe the revolution has started

 

[Pop Popavich]

You can already do that. That's what amphetamines are for.

Seriously though, bring on the day when the options of Syndicate become a reality. Apart from the personal advantages, think of how bloody good spectator sports will become!

how come when you sleep with too many blankets and get hot that you start having crazy dreams?

 

[xcidium]

Because it's your body's way of saying "WAKE THE FUCK UP! YOU ARE OVERHEATING!"

I made a post in the 'Night Terrors' thread in Aus DD about it. I think it's the sole reason for nightmares.

 

[astrosmurf]

i've not read the night terrors thread but night terrors and having freaky/scary dreams at night are two very different things.

my ex went through a stage of getting night terrors and i'd never wish them upon my worst enemy; it was the most awful and scary thing i've ever experienced.

 

[xcidium]

^^ I know all about night terrors. Don't you worry about that.

I had them when I was a kid. For about 5 years, my mum swore I was possesed. Waking up in the middle of the night pointing at the shadows on the wall, screaming, trembling, near jumping out of my skin.

Btw, I'm not saying they're the same thing, I'm saying (I beleive) they're caused by the same thing. Heat.

Night terrors - This might be interesting

This is also interesting

This is a home-made night terror resource site

This is a silly website about a panda



p.s. how come there are two of these threads running now??

 

[Duckboy]

I would like to know if recreational drugs affect doctors.......? :D

Sheesh.
EVERYONE knows that doctors are untouchable. This quite clearly includes the effects of drugs, illicit or otherwise.
Many do, however, have large holes in their brains. These doctors appear to be concentrated in or around a NSW university research lab.
Nobody knows why this is so. It remains a mystery for the ages.

 

[katmeow]

Well, I can't say it's something I've always wanted to know... but if someone from melbourne could kindly help me out with the name of the shopping centre with the awesomely cool ceiling, so I can label my photograph accordingly, it would be much appreciated

 

[leecie]

^^Melbourne Central I believe?

 

[Pop Popavich]

Yep, Melbourne Central it is.

The tower in the middle is the old shot tower, where they would drop small amount of liquid lead that would turn to spheres on the way down (as liquid does) and set by the time it hit the bottom, so they had nice round balls of lead to shoot at people.
