Title: I hate that Dasani Advert!!!!

It is horrible.  People drinking water copiously, with megasized mugs, singing the drinking song that Mario Lanza used to sing (we had the record when I was a child).  Drink, Drink, Drink!
Listen to how the advert ends -
To make your body happy,
Drink more water.

How's that for a good feeling! >:(

How about the old adage

"Drink eight to ten glasses of water alone everyday."    I wish.... Oh for a huge glass of cold, running water....mmmmmm.

And the huge cups at Circle K.  My sister has one.  I hate it!

How about every ad that equates food to wonderful feelings. Enjoy, feel good, whatever...

When you throw up potato chips, it sucks.

I hate those sort of ads too!! Don't they realise what they are doing to us??!?! lol
I was in the fruit shop recently, around the time I had a high K+, and one of the staff was trying to get me to buy their seconds apples, bananas etc. And I said I'm sorry I'm not aloud to eat them. And he said, nooo its alright they are good for you. I again said I'm sorry I cant, I'm just looking thanks. He got the shits and walked away  >:(
I always get people telling me "oh a little bit wont hurt" and it shits me because it doesn't matter how many times you say you cant, they don't listen. I was out recently with my granny in law and her friends and we had these really luscious chocolate brownies. I had a small piece of one, and I knew I was very due for dialysis as I felt a bit off, and the old lady friend said go on just eat it it wont hurt. arrhghh!!
