Mountian Dew
 
I came across a site the other day that freaked me out. What it does is determine how many Mountian Dew's it would take to kill you. Sad that too many can kill you. I love Mountian Dew:(
I found out it would take about 175 cans in one setting to kill me. I dont think thats too bad.

Here's the link just in case you like Mountian Dew as much as me and need to know

You can actually die from drinking too much water, too. I forget how much, though.

insoluble 12-05-2003 01:15 AM

so you weigh 141?

wolf 12-05-2003 01:23 AM

The actual amount varies with age, body weight and chemistry. (this is my excuse for not posting an amount. I'll ask a doctor tomorrow, assuming I remember to do so).

The condition known as "water intoxication" or "hyponatremia" results from drinking so much fluid that the amount sodium in the blood is too diluted to keep body function going. You see the condition in runners who don't replace enough electrolytes (through the ever-popular sports beverages) and in some mental patients who have a condition called "psychogenic polydipsia" which means "drinks too much damn water." Occasionally we have someone on the unit that has to be monitored for drinking water, which is a pain in the ass ... because they need to be restricted from areas with water coolers and faucets.

How long is a "sitting"?

I don't think it would take quite that many, actually. The spike in your blood sugar would get you long before the hyponatremia would shut down your kidney function.

Found it ... >2 gallons of water/day, with less output than input.

Just had to figure that out huh?

insoluble 12-05-2003 03:04 AM

Yeah - I'm a nerd.
I'm with Wolf - hyperglycemia would get you early on.

lumberjim 12-05-2003 09:37 AM

don't feel bad amoeba, it would take me 323 cans. and I'm only 5'2"......

FileNotFound 12-05-2003 09:43 AM

290 at 6'6"

At lan parties I used to drink about 23 cans of that stuff in a day.

russotto 12-05-2003 11:03 AM

Hyponatremia won't kill you if you Do The Dew -- it's got 75mg of sodium per 12-oz can.

Griff 12-05-2003 11:09 AM

208? I'd be clawing the walls like a cat after about five though. That much sugar and caffeine would flip me out.

hot_pastrami 12-05-2003 11:29 AM

I used to drink Mountain Dew Code Red until I found out that it (as well as regular Mountain Dew) contain Brominated Vegetable Oil (BVO). That's basically Bromine and vegetable Oil. Bromine is very bad stuff, it is used for things like sanitizing swimming pools. They say that once it enters your body, some of it finds a home in your fat cells and stays there forever. Lemme see if I can find a link...

Ah, here's one.

Happy Monkey 12-05-2003 11:45 AM

MMMmmmm... Bromine....
 
Nothin' better to clear the sinuses.

This gives you a Body Mass index of 33.

If your BMI is over 30: This indicates an unhealthy condition, your excess “Prosperity” is putting you at risk for heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, gall bladder disease and some cancers. You should lose weight by changing your diet and exercising more.

Simply defined, you are obese.

A wetback is nasty racial slur.

Actualy I thought it was really tastless so I blasted it a few minutes after I posted it. I was going to make a better response...but you posted instead and thus I was unable to do so.

What did this girl do that everyone hates her? It must be pretty bad since so many people feel that way.

I make a very bad moderator because I'm so judgmental.

UT is a good mod because while he probably secretly hates your guts he doesn't let his feelings influence his decisions.

If I were a mod you'd have been banned in early November.

By the way...just to point something out. You're the one that's bitching.

Actually, I don't _hate_ her. Never said I did. However, she seems to think we all do. (Well, some of us may)

Doesn't "we all hate her" qualify as saying you hate her? Just pointing it out... not trying to be an ass.

perth 12-05-2003 04:29 PM

She was paraphrasing this.

April has a victim's mentality. I don't hate her either. I got upset with her, yes, but I never decided or implied that I hate her. And I don't really recall Dagney behaving in any manner that that implied hate. Some people did, and they know who they are, and April decided that the few spoke for the whole.

Ah, gotcha. I wasn't implying that I'd seen any hate directed at april from Dagney, only that there was an apparent conflict in the two statements... but I hadn't seen the other thread yet to get the joke.

And while I don't condone a lot of the nastiness that has been directed at april, I wish she'd really go away. She's become a pollutant, and many of her posts dilute the Cellar's quality. She seems ok for awhile, but then we get another rash of "Fuck you bitches I'm leaving." When she inevitably returns (later that day), it's to update us on the convoluted, messy drama that is her personal life. Bah.
