3 mountain dews and a lucozade please

I would have punched myself in the face until the gushing blood made it difficult to see and I would do this as punishment for being a nosey asshat who should mind his own damn business.
 
Maybe after a long week of drinking water, milk and sugar-free squash the gentleman decided to treat his kids.

Was at sainsubrys yesterday at the kiosk for stamps.

Guy in front of me had his 3 kids. He got himself a packet of cigarettes and let his kids pick the drinks they wanted.

Two older twins (no more than year 1-2 at school) picked out mountain dews. The younger kid picked up lucozade.

I'm dead certain that the kids picked the drinks for themselves and have bought them in the past two.

Knowing parents they're highly. HIGHLY defensive. if you critique them they don't take it easy and will lash out at you. So I just let it slide.

What would you have done?

I'd have recommended Monster Energy, about the same price as Mountain Dew but has more kick to it. I particularly like the part where you 'let it slide', as if you accost everyone you see that buys soft drinks? :rolleyes:

I see more of an issue with the guy buying cigarettes when he has a young family but still, his choice to make.

Besides, your little 'story' makes no sense as you only mention two Mountain Dews and yet in the title you quite clearly state three. So which is it, two, three or just a figment of your imagination that you thought would stir up some vitriol?

Perhaps the issue is that the guy stole an extra Mountain Dew? :eek:

Precisely, the OP is making a lot of assumptions here, mainly that the man in question wasn't offering his kids a 'treat' as part of a balanced diet.

Energy drinks aren't inherently bad, they are bad when drank all the time. OP needs some perspective.
 
I never drank Lucozade as a kid, even once. Or Vimto. Or Coke. Or Appletiser. Or Dr Pepper. Or Bass Shandy. Or Cream Soda. Or Fanta. Or Panda Pop. Or Cari Sun. Or Oasis. Or...

No, I was being facetious. As you well know.

Without knowing the entire diet and lifestyle of these children, it's impossible to know whether this parent is a Jeremy Kyle candidate or simply treating his well deserving children.

I was going to say.. if you were Amish, how would you be posting on here :p
 
Your the kind of person that would look at me and judge me when i do my monthly shop and have about 15 litres of Lucozade in my trolly, aren't you? :(
 
I have fond childhood memories og my Nan always bringing me a bottle of Lucozade when I was ill. The proper stuff too, a glass bottle with that orange film wrapping.
 
A friend of mine who is diabetic always has a big bottle of Lucozade in the fridge in case his blood-sugar levels drop dangerously. Would the OP judge him too?

I would have offered the father an Njoy King E-Cigarette and told him about a thriving vaping community online :rolleyes:


Because friends don't let friends smoke........no but they put on peer pressure to get them started. What a **** advert!

Errrm.....wut?

If you notice in the scene before the wedding he takes a fag off him and throws it away :confused:
 
I would have sent him to parent camp

Possibly the worst thing you can do to a kid is give them a fizzy drink
