Dr. Grumpy - why don't you get Diet Coke to sponsor your blog so that we don't all have to keep seeing nasty pictures in "I was a fat slob" ads? Just a thought....
Me, I like flavored seltzer water. If I drink diet soda I like diet Cherry Pepsi. 'Course, I can't do without my coffee though.
I couldn't handle the thought of consuming such vast quantities of artificial sweeteners as you do, I don't know how you do it. I keep thinking of all those alternative medicine quacks who say the stuff gives you cancer- I know they are quacks but it still scares me-
ER's Mom- yeah, I agree, but I try not to come to the office drunk (or even tipsy, as tempting as it sounds.
Back when I taught MCAT classes in college I did that on occasion. And most of my students still did well. I'm not convinced the 2 factors were related, but you never know.
yyyyuuummmmmmmmm all that carbonated water, high fructose corn syrup, caramel color, phosphoric acid, caffeine, aspartame, potassium benzoate and citric acid! are you a doctor or a test tube, grumpy?

How 'bout a healthier choice - like zip fizz or something?
'Course I love Monster :( not much better.
I saw your Diet Coke and was like...mmmm...rum and Diet Coke...then I noticed the ad immediately under this post was for "Sober College Rehab".
These Google ads are SMART!
YES
THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT
That picture warms my soul :D
diet cokeheads of the world <3
Is that it? I need more than that!
By now you should have your own fountain soda machine!
mmmm... refreshing! *drool*
hey, that looks like my fridge! are you the one that's been nabbing my DC in the middle of the night? ;-)
You can keep those. I'll stick with the orange juice and milk. :)
Hmmm...I just put on a pot or three of coffee...
So where's the Tuesday drawer?
Hmmmm.... looks like my fridge. I'm down to a 24 pack and started to get worried. Store... stat.
Diet Vanilla coke for me. Or just plain ole Vanilla coke. Occasionally with rum.
A much better source of caffeine than nosocomial coffee.
You're my kinda guy, Grumpy.
Of course, rum added to it helps when you're dealing with patients. ;)
LOVE it! My boss used to say he was going to try and figure out how to give it to me I.V., just so I wouldn't have to stop and take a sip..

did you get all those from a rep touting the antistroke/cancer/ageing effects of diet coke?

Clearly you are not a connoisseur.
It is common knowldge that fountain Diet Coke is vile and repugnant in comparison to the canned or bottled variety.
Dragonfly - "nosocomial coffee" *priceless* :-)

You know, that's a lot of Diet Coke... what would your doctor say?
I'd say it's never enough!

Notice that more than one person suggested the addition of rum?

Rum is for after hours. Not at hospital :-) As I am not being taught by Captain Jack Sparrow.

Just as long as the other drawer in the fridge isn't filled with Sweet and Low packets.
