Diet Coke is a godsend, but that's really the only soda I like. Never understood regular Coke's appeal, not because of the caloric content, just because it's too sweet for my taste.

A show I like, Infinity Train, was definitly going to be cancelled. Then apparently today HBO decided to renew it for a forth season out of the blue. Sweet.

Love when that happens. Netflix pulled the plug on a favorite of mine, Tuca and Bertie some time ago, but just decided to renew it.

Soft drink or pop for me.

Soft drink. Unless it's Coca-Cola; which I just call "coke".

Yep, the Mexican one.

I can't drink Diet Coke. Aspartame gives me migraine (and I know that sounds like BS, but this has been found to happen every time, even with things that never contained it before and which I had not knowing they now contained any; some studies have found it can be a trigger).

Truth be told, I don't like consuming sweeteners on the whole. I prefer having the real coke (I actually prefer the taste, too), and just less of it.

Ahh but Diet Coke is the choice of drink for our dear Batman. Oh, he would go far and beyond to get his fix!

There was someone here or maybe more than one who said that they want to renounce US citizenship. If they manage to obtain another citizenship, it can't just be any country. Hopefully whatever places they pick is determined via good research. It turns out there are about 5 nations that currently don't allow someone to renounce that citizenship or in practice make the process for doing so nearly impossible.

The governments which don't allow any renounciation of their citizenship are: Argentina, Costa Rica, Morocco, Vatican, and Iran.
Greece doesn't allow it for Greeks until after any mandatory military service has been completed if they're subject to that, but otherwise allows it.

Last night I thought I woke up at 4am to go to the bathroom, then looked out the window and saw about 3 inches of new snow down. Apparently that was a dream, the snow just started.

Note to self - never talk about your fitness progress anywhere. Because there's always going to be someone openly laughing at you for not being able to push right to the same limit they can right out of the gate.

Also really wishing that Ring Fit had an intensity setting between Casual and Hardcore for its Sets. Casual felt too easy and like I wasn't really getting any benefit from it, and Hardcore kicked my ass so hard I'm currently wearing it as a hat.

There is no advanced/intermediate option? Looks like I've found something new for my "things I can't believe anyone seriously thought are a good idea" list.
