Why the hell would you put ice in your pop?

The ice melts and dilutes the flavor! Instead of getting Coke, you get a half-Coke, half-water monster. You may as well fill half the cup with tap water. Not only this, but if wherever you're going to doesn't offer refills, then you're [i]paying[/i] to get less pop. Now, I know what you're probably thinking: "Who's this dumbass? I need the pop to be [i]cold![/i] Does he expect me to drink warm pop?! What a loser. He must eat babies." Well, there's this thing, you might have heard of it, pretty new invention, it's called a [b]refrigerator.[/b] Stick a two liter in there for 20 minutes, and it's as cold as iced pop. Plus, pop from the fountain at restaurants is already cold. Come at me.

  • It makes it colder, and if you drink it quickly enough the water does not change the flavor.

I don't ever really put ice in my cup unless it's summer time and I need something cold to drink.

  • I have no clue. In movies theaters I always say no ice. The soda is cold already and stays cold.

  • Actually I agree, I always get as little ice as possible. Also I HATE at restaurants they fill 3/4 of the damn glass with ice, it lasts like 5 minutes before I need a refill.

  • Because when it's 100 degrees out, I don't want to consume 100 degree fluids... Water dilution is much more preferable than warm flat soda. As far as the fridge argument, some people don't have a lot of room to store cans of soda and sometimes I don't want to wait for my soda to cool down. Ice is a good alternative...Here's something mindblowing...Get ice and poor the amount you know you can drink in the next few minutes...Repeat these steps and you won't have heavily diluted soda.

  • How long does it take you to drink a drink? Usually by the end of my drinks I still have ice cubes in there.. Plus depends on how many cubes you put in, 4-5 is a good amount for me, keeps my drinks cold and still have 4-5 cubes at the end of it. If you let it sit there for a long while of course it's going to melt.

  • I agree; I've always wondered this as well. I just chill it in a fridge for a while and it's fine.

  • Because I like my pop chilled, and in a hot environment the ice certainly chills it.

  • Ok, I don't know what kind of fridge the OP has, but 20 minutes has never made even a can of soda cold enough, let alone a 2 liter. If I want it cold fast, into the freezer it goes. As for in restaurants, if I get the drink myself, I get very little ice only because I don't want it to get warm before I finish it. Sit down restaurants usually give refills wherever I go so I don't care. Anyway, at home, I keep a minimum of 2 cans in the fridge, so when I want one, it's cold. [Edited on 10.13.2012 6:06 PM PDT]

  • I know right? I ask for a coke with no ice and people look at me like I just murdered a small child in front of them.
