This is most likely related to the fact that the rich and famous go to the "hospital" because they are suffering from "exhaustion" while anyone else is just nuts and having a breakdown. The rich don't own pistols and the rest of us do thus the higher homicide rate.

That always got me when I used to work at a movie theater. Jumbo popcorn combo, tons and tons of fattening butter and of course a Diet Coke (in about a 40 oz. cup). It reminded me of when I "got my vegetables" each week in college from the lettuce and tomatoes on the 4-5 cheeseburgers I ate per week.

I'm that way, but b/c I like diet coke, not b/c it's a DIET drink. I can't stand the heavy syrupy taste of regular coke.

So I'm sure I've gotten those looks before.

Guilty!!! I am a Diet Coke with my Big Mac orderer, and it is NOT because I like the taste Diet Coke. I figure every calorie counts.

Generally speaking, I avoid refined sugar wherever I can. Plus, getting a diet soda as opposed to a regular one saves you about 200 calories. Switch from regular coke to diet coke once a day, and in a year's time, you'll lose 20 pounds. (I'm talking the typical fast food size of 16 oz)
