Council pop is such a term, but is very UK.
Haha aye, we call it Corporation Pop round my end.
I’d only heard of council juice
I could sure go for a ice cold cup or H2O.
I’d try putting the H2O inside that ice cold cup. You’ll thank me later.
“Now that’s good quality H2O”

“Wah-wah”: Am I a joke to you?
Gemeentepils in the Netherlands. Municipality beer.
I dunno, man. I’ve heard it being referred to as “aqua-cola”. I’ve also heard it’s incredibly addictive, which makes sense because not a lot of time has to pass at all before I start to crave more of it. It’s practically impossible to resist.
Should’ve never been started on that shit. I dunno why it’s so normalised in society…
The ultimate gateway drug. EVERY addict of any kind started by drinking water. They should ban that shit.
100% of water addicts have died

Too many syllables

Dihydrogen monoxide
I prefer oxidane
Just like bears
I fucking love the etymology of animal and food words. My favorite is deer, which is related to the German Tier, and originally meant “animal,” because I imagine early Germanic speakers looking at a deer and thinking “this is it, the quintessential animal.” I get it, honestly.
Not really early Germanic though, because every other Germanic language kept the meaning of “animal”. It’s only modern English (since the 1500s) that narrowed it all the way to one specific species (or family of Cervidae).
My guess would be that the language gained the word “animal” from French and “deer” was pushed from its niche and forced to specialize?
Go on…?
The modern English word “bear” originally came from a proto-Germanic word meaning one of “brown one” or possibly “wild animal”. There was an actual name for bears, but speaking it was taboo in case it caused a bear to appear, so the euphemism eventually replaced the real name.
When I learned this originally, I was taught that the true name was lost to time, but Wikipedia just says it was “arkto” so whatever.
Shhhh! Do you want bears? That’s how you get bears. The name was lost, never type it again.
H2- oh
That’s how French pronounces it. Eau.
H20, Agua
Dihydrogen Monoxide
