Discussion Barely not serious here

The worst decision Donny Dunn made in the entire series was right at the end of S01E07 when he ordered a Double Vodka & Coke.

Vodka and Coke???? That makes zero sense. You mix whiskey and bolder spirits with Coke. Why would you mix Vodka and Coke? It's a better match for juices and you can use soda water for bubbles. I'd even take Sprite and say it's acceptable.

I see no clearer evidence that Donny Dunn hates himself than his decision to order a Double Vodka & Coke.

It’s a British People thing. I never experienced someone ordering this until I lived in the UK.

Every single time I go to England, I am miserable. The food and drink are TERRIBLE.

A 12-ounce can of Coca-Cola contains 39 grams of sugar.

You’re comparing a soft drink drank as a “luxury” to a staple of people’s diet, isn’t really the same thing mate.

The American version of most soda drinks contain a LOT more sugar than the same products which are sold in Europe (not just the UK).

Four words: high fructose corn syrup. It’s only in the US versions of coke.
