That sucks, I hadn’t had the chance to see them before, but I got tickets for a show they’re having near me in a few months. I guess I need to see what getting a refund looks like.
They say its about unhealthy food and drink, but why are drink refills considers a health issue to the point of requiring law? Plenty offer more than just unhealthy soda and trash like that.
Health Secretary Eluned Morgan has launched a consultation to restrict “promotions of food products high in fat, sugar and salt”.
Article specifically calls out some names:
It includes a proposal to prohibit retailers from offering free drink refills, which many high street restaurants including Nando’s and Five Guys offer.
Taking Five Guys for example they offer coca cola freestyle:
Which offers options such as minute maid lemonaid, vitamin water, etc. with non-sugar options. This law would punish those same drinks in the name of health.
That's not really a solution at all. You don't order a soda with your lunch because you think "I'm so dehydrated", you order a soda because you think "This will taste nice". People are allowed to want flavor.
Flavor comes from my steak and my bacon Brussels sprouts, not my beverage.
And actually sodas don’t “taste nice”. Go keto for a few months and break that sugar addiction. The next time you try a soda you’ll realize they’re all sickeningly sweet and not fit for human consumption.
Uh-huh, but that’s ignoring the sugar-free options the other user said. I like flavored drinks with my food, i drink enough water throughout the rest of the day.
I can always cure and smoke my own pork belly, should the govt decide I can’t get it at a store…. Just like someone can take sugar and other garbage and put it into their water should they so desire.
I guess we’re all God’s pets children and He wants us to keep reproducing. Evolution is compatible with believing in God. Now why He put my g spot inaide my ass can only be proof of His immense sense of humour.
Unfortunately it’s the nature of dictators. When they start to feel under pressure because of the economy etc they point over there and say “that country is the reason we are struggling, we should take their stuff, everything will be better if we do.”
Unfortunately this the sort of thing the UN should be dealing with, but they can’t because of bureaucracy / corruption / incompetence, take your pick.
I’d call this humiliating, but we’re talking about a man who has no shame whatsoever. For Santos, it’s just a decent way to get money from idiots in his free time.
I believe you, I’m just having a hard time wrapping my head around individuals who collect such things. A museum maybe, but were I a curator, I’d go for somebody of actual interest and cultural value.
I can even see how fascists would give cultural value to things owned by fascists. But this guy is just a con artist.
Some people would rather earn no money than some money. It’s weird and what happens commonly in Buenos Aires. I think it might be the sunk cost fallacy.
