Question by serenitynow: Brown coloring hurting your stomach in sodas?
Everytime I drink “brown” pop I get a burning in my stomach. I have stopped drinking it a few years ago b/c of this. Mostly drink water now and an occasional 7-Up or Sprite which doesn’t seem to bother me. Just wondering if anyone else out there has had the same symptoms?
Addendum: I do drink coffee 1/2 caffeinated and that doesn’t seem to bother me.

Best answer:

Question by Apathy: how can i get my friend to go back the way she was?
one of my good friends has been pushing all her friends away, she’s one of those girls that loves attention. before i knew how to choose my words carefully to talk around it. but now it’s ridiculous.

i’ve known her for a few years now, we could tell each other anything and she has never hinted towards what she is pulling now.
she used to pull little things for attention. at first she would say stuff like “oh i drank 2 bottles of wine last night. yeah i’m such an alcoholic”. we live in Eugene, OR.. everyone here binge drinks. even when she does drink she usually gets smashed off a few glasses. i think she would die if she tried to drink 2 bottles. i don’t know if some of my real alcoholic friends could finish 2 bottles.
then it was “i haven’t slept in 3 days and i’m hallucinating” even though you don’t hallucinate until 5+ days of sleep deprivation.
when that didn’t work she claimed to get high off pills.. i tried one when she was out of the room and it was just over the counter vitamin C pills. she would fill them in a old oxycotton bottle.
