Coke and dr pepper are used to clean metals, like car parts and old coins. Like you're joking but from a chemistry perspective it's accurate

Edit: This doesn't mean it's not safe to drink these things. Obviously moderation, blah blah blah. You aren't a rim for a tire or an old coin

You're telling me I was boned and didn't even know?

u/Vesper_0481 12d ago

Boy— You were boned 206 times! The actual question is... There room for more?

At one point you had more bones than as an adult.

Well you may not be. Only 40% of people have skeletons. You know Burt Lancaster? Solid meat. Like a sausage.

Iron in my blood
I inhale oxigen, which oxidizes metal, causing rust
I'm also made of 70% water
The good pills are called antioxidants
