I Bet Henry Kissinger Does Too
You know, I don't drink soda much these days, but when I do, I almost always ask for "Dr Pepper, no ice".
Dr Pepper, because it's great. (Though sometimes you'll get lucky and they'll have Mr Pibb.)
(Or Pibb Xtra, same thing.)
And no ice, because then you get more soda
And it doesn't get watered down when the ice melts.
Because
Who wants watered-down soda?
Not me.



You know who I bet drank watered-down soda?
Hitler.
He was the worst.

You know, some of my friends tell me that “88” gets used as a neo-Nazi symbol. I'm not actually a neo-Nazi. Far from it.
But I actually like watered-down soda a lot
And the coincidence feels weird.

That's not really the point though.
It's not that I couldn't take a joke about that.
But you know who I bet wrote edgy comparisons out of nowhere?
Hitler.
… wait a minute.

Whatever.
Eighth out of eight.

I also don't like ice in my soda, for both of the same reasons, plus one: I have sensitive teeth, and having the ice all up top is painful, unless I have a straw to get below the ice. But then I still have the problems you cite. If the soda is warm, I might put a little ice in it.

I should have just put that in as an entry.

This doesn't have the feeling of giving a bigger picture on the speaker than the shaved ice one, and then it degenerates into a typical internet Hitler accusation, so. Eh, it was okay.

Dilution is troublesome,
But soda is bubblesome.

>>Light_Striker yeah, as an anti-fascist, I know all about the whole 1488 thing. I'm really glad this poem didn't have seven more words because that would have been unintentionally awkward. Anyway yeah this one isn't meant to be taken too seriously.

But still, fuck Henry Kissinger.

>>Pascoite
Yeah, not my best entry, but it was fun to write.

>>GroaningGreyAgony
exactly.
