Mayor of NYC Bans 2 liter soda with pizza delivery

[QUOTE="ShadowMoses900"]

[QUOTE="dave123321"]Shadow do you still hold the ideal that you would force your beliefs about gay marriage on others? Or have you altered/evolved that position?dave123321

My position on same sex marriage has not changed. It has nothing to do with forcing my beliefs, simply standing by the values that I hold firm. Why would internet trolls on GS change my mind?

And yes I'm aware that my preferred politician John Huntsman endorses it now. That's his business to do what he feels is important and I still endorse him, I do however disagree with his position on it.

I'm not a homophob in the slightest, I wish left-wingers would stop demonizing people because they have a different opinion than they do. I don't call pro-choice people baby killers.

So dismissing OT as Internet trolls is not for the best.dave123321

Hmm...

He voted against it last November, so he's pushing his view on others. But to be fair, if gay marriage was an issue in my country (hasn't been since we legalised it in 2001), I would've voted for so that would also be pushing views on others.MrPraline

I think the mayor just doesnt like the metric system.  I dont see him banning any gallons.

I'm telling you... if I was in charge of a store within an hour's drive of NYC, I'd be tripling my soda inventory and marking it up by a nickel an ounce. Watch the profits roll in.

Eh buying soda with pizza is generally an awful deal, so I doubt many people care. Still really weird thing to do though.

Guys, what size soda do you normally get at a fast food joint?dave123321

usually a medium soda, i dont even drink it all.  but when i order a pizza i have a family of 4, so we all share a 2 liter.

This is idiotic and completely arbitrary, which is what I expect from New York.Laihendi

[QUOTE="cain006"]

[QUOTE="venomousssss"] it goes together though. no ones going to order a pizza and drink milk with it, people like flavor with their mealvenomousssss

[QUOTE="venomousssss"][QUOTE="cain006"]Just buy soda from the store. Way cheaper.

[QUOTE="cain006"]

[QUOTE="venomousssss"] is it way cheaper? lets see, going to the store requires driving (for some people like myself) and that wastes gas, gas is expensive in NYC. whats more expensive that gas prices? my time, why walk to the store when i can have someone getting paid, to deliver me some. thats the key here. so not only am i wasting time going to the store, ill waste energy, fuel, etc.Protoford

Bloomberg needs to get assassinated already.

The piece of sh!t is just useless, he focuses on the wrong issues.

What is thou mayors reason for banning 2 liter's in the first place?Judge-Correct

It's not just 2 litres. It's every container above 16 oz.

Somehow, he believes that limiting the serving size of the containers will magically make people thin... sort of like how he believed that jacking the tax rate up on cigarettes would make smokers magically quit (as an ex-smoker himself, he should damned well know better).

We need Bloomberg as president. We need a visionary who will fight the evil cola fascist corporatist GOP.

Bloomberg/Feinstein 2016 baby!

The fact that this is a big deal for some is more firghtening than the actual ban.

Get a grip, y'all.  It's f*ckin' soda.

He has just about banned smoking in NYC. It's not illegal to smoke in NYC... but it's practically impossible to find a place to smoke.

The ink was barely dry on the trans-fat studies when he banned them from the city.

There are very good reasons why I don't live in NYC. Most of them are Mayor Bloomberg.

NYC is getting more and more crazy. What is it about the coasts! AutoPilotOn

[QUOTE="Toph_Girl250"]sounds like NYC has become the new China. Ban everything fun. InEMplease

We're still far ahead of those dumbasses that won't allow same-sex marriage.  Pot is pretty f*ckin cool here too, so eat it.

Oh, it's just the latest in Bloomberg's chain of insanity.

Your loss.  How dare that motherf*cker ban sh!t that's bad for us!

Ever drank coffee?  Taken an aspirin?  I guarantee you do drugs.InEMplease

No, to an extent.  Things obviously harmful to me I:

a) Do not willfully partake in

b) Would not care if they are banned.

Good thing marijuana isn't one...seriously cYusuke420
