Steph, can you make other things fizzy besides water?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I have a migraine with attendant nausea and a stomach that was upset from before anyway. I hate you and all your lunch-eating ways.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I'm contemplating making cookies to bring to the strikerinos over at FOX on Monday. Kristen said all the goodies are going to the valley.

Kristen said all the goodies are going to the valley.

What does this mean to those of us non-LAers?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

All the New York picket lines seem to be within twenty feet of food, I suppose bringing them goodies would be pointless.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

Steph, can you make other things fizzy besides water?

It tells you not to, that any liquid other than water can (1) make a carbonated explosion, and/or (2) gunk up the machine and possibly break it.

But you can make your water fizzy and then afterwards add stuff to it (in the bottle, or in your cup when you drink it), like fruit, or other flavorings, etc. You can buy flavorings that are like Coke and other soda flavors.

I'm just a straight-up fizzy water addict, so while I might toss in a lemon wedge or something once in a while, I'll mostly just be guzzling the fizzy H2O.

The few times I've tried carbonated water, I got nauseous.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

So carbonated water is just water that is... carbonated? Huh. I don't believe I've ever had it by itself.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What's the difference between seltzer and club soda?

Perrier is the brand I'm thinking of. Bleah.
