Yeah. Well, I'm trying to cut back drastically on my soda intake to basically 2-3 cans a week on the weekend used as mixer/chaser for drinks.

But my addiction with soda isn't the sugar as it is with so many people, it's the carbonation. So unsweetened lemon sparkling water is actually a really good stand-in.

That said, it really pisses me off the stuff is *** NEVER on sale with the rest of the pop. So even if Coke products are on sale, I'm paying full price for 12-packs of Dasani, or having to buy bulky, awkward litre bottles of Deer Springs.

Basically, what I'm trying to say is it's Tuesday and I'm angry about everything right now. WIN.

Why do people keep referring to the Japanese as pacifists? What in their history has shown them to be pacifists?

it's post-WW2 Japan we're talking about.

Article 9 of the Japanese Constitution

Edit: that is to say, post-modern Japan has generally been pacifist, or at least non-aggressive, since the end of the second World War.

Obviously taken in context of their entire history, there's a bit more of a, shall we say, bloodthirsty streak.

They only adopted that stance because it was forced upon them. They weren't allowed to keep anything beyond what was considered a self-dense force. They were nuetered.

Oy.
That being said, their "self-defense" force is a far cry from being impotent.

Be that as it may, it's the stance they took and it's actually served them quite well in many respects.

But it doesn't make them pacifists.

Oh, I see. You're just trying to go full semantics.

Can that particular argument be held elsewhere?

It's not semantics at all. You're just wrong in calling them pacifistic in the first place.

It's also not a stance they took by themselves... Its a stance they were forced to take.

Mos is passed out from use of the chloroform bottle... Nik is off making sure more people get hammered by the weather machine on the east coast... Z is contemplating whether or not she should comment on how she shouldn't have looked at that new P&R thread and Misa was crushed by a table he was flipping over.

I'm here for ya though buddy :)

I have a whole bottle, unfortunately I need to swing by work (which I may skip) and have a test tonight, so none of that.

But man would it make today go better.

One day, someone will look through my folder of MSPC pictures and try to make sense of it. I will have no words to help them.
