The first sip of Coke is weird even if it’s just been a while. Dude must’ve felt crazy. I wonder if old formulas were more relaxed(besides the cocaine).

Because of the cocaine actually.

Honestly I was disappointed that it wasn't very spicy

Nice tie. I hope he succeeds.

Somebody please explain this comment like I’m mentally 5

I like the man's tie. I misread the title as, "Man trying to sample Coca-Cola".

I too would enjoy a low dose of cocaine.

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

This won't end well.

Photography is beautiful

If not for the hands, I would have labeled this as generative art.
