Diet soda is bad. Bad, bad, bad.
I've managed to fool my taste buds into thinking it tastes just as good as regular soda. In fact, I can't even drink regular soda now because it tastes too sweet to me. Considering how much soda I drink in an average day it's a good thing I drink diet...

I'll try coke zero but if it just tastes like coke I probably won't be that impressed.

Try pepsi one.

Pepsi one tastes more like real pepsi. It's the pepsi equivalent of coke zero.

but is one greater than zero, or is zero greater than one?

I prefer Coke Zero. The little 12oz. bottles are the best.

I tried to buy some bottled water out of a vending machine the other day and it just swallowed my money ($2). So I put another $2 in the machine. Still swallowed it, no water. So I figured fine, I will get some "powerade" or whatever that stuff is and it stole my money too.

Finally I gave up and moved over to the soda machine hoping for some type of juice. None.

So I got some clear looking pepsi and I could only drink 1/3 of it before getting disgusted. Then I saw a water fountain and emptied the soda into that and filled it with water. So it cost me like $8 for a bottle to fill with water from a water fountain.
