[quote=Powdered Water]It's legal to own sugar. Sugar is almost as undefeated as the internet.[/quote]

[quote=John McClane]Sugar is just as bad as heroin.[/quote]

Yup. Here's a link to the 4C lemonade with Splenda:

[quote=John McClane]If I ever became diabetic I will just walk off into the woods and wait to die because my life will effectively be over if I can't drink soda. ;)[/quote]

[quote=Austruck][quote=John-Connor]Yes, aspartame is bad and stevia tastes bad, so i'm back to regular sugar ;)[/quote]
Diabetic. Can't do that. Fortunately, I usually like stevia (except in the aforementioned lemonade).  :) So I'll opt for Splenda in those instances when I can.[/quote]

I wish I liked stevia, I hear it's better, but I hate it. Even a little. Oh well.[/quote]

[quote=Yoda]For me the really big red flag is when someone apologizes for their behavior...and then later argues that it should be okay. That shows that either the apology was disingenuous, or that their promises go out the window when they're angry/upset/whatever. And from a moderation perspective, there's no meaningful difference between someone who's actively manipulative and someone with no self-control.[/quote]

Seems rather ironic that this all happened over an argument over the semantics of the word "hate".[/quote]

Plus years worth of other incidents.[/quote]

Oh yeah. This too.[/quote]
