@BatElite Apparently, it's based on the age of mountains that the rivers have carved through.
-F

i think bip is very cute
-F

okay apparently it might be the third oldest, there's a pretty wide uncertainty on the age estimate of rivers, for obvious reasons
-F

apparently, there's a river in west virginia, virginia, and north carolina called the New River

it's the second-oldest river in the world

whoever named this thing needs to learn what "new" means

@nautilee we actually saw this on FA a few minutes before seeing it on here and my first thought was "oh i should show this to the systers!" before realizing who posted it
-F

@hi_cial speaking as someones who *do* that... it actually reduces oversleeping a *lot*

we've been not using an alarm clock for i think seven years now, and in that time we've overslept exactly twice
-F

@hi_cial i mostly thought the "cures timidness" and "luck-infused" claims were rather amusing and wanted to comment on those
-F

@sharkNserg sleep well connie and metro 💚

i'm glad you get to rest
-F

@hi_cial Well, I can't really say it's very reminiscent of dr pepper! maybe it's a really bad imitation?

it does actually have "pepper extract" in its ingredients, as the very last one, even after the preservatives (which basically means "we put one drop of this in the bottle so we can legally say it's in here")
-F

ah, it has "pepper extract" in its ingredients list.... *after* sodium benzoate, which if you know much about food preservatives you know that *VERY* little sodium benzoate goes into stuff, you barely need any of it for the preservative effect
-F

i don't know if this is actually an old brand of soda or if it's just trying to look like an old brand, but we got a bottle of this fancy soda that calls itself "macfuddy's, the distinctively strong pepper elixir" and claims to "cure timidness and satisfy the daring"... and claims to be "luck-infused" whatever that means

tastes alright, nowhere near as strong as you'd expect from what it claims though. can't taste the pepper at all, though, mostly get a cherryish flavor with a hint of cola. Weirdly, slightly reminiscent of cough medicine while drinking it, but doesn't have anything close to the horrible aftertaste cough medicine is infamous for, which makes it actually not unpleasant?

@Kaffe@chitter.xyz oh a little skunklet
-F

@JulieSqveakaroo no it's a screenshot of a i think tumblr post that... let me find it

ah here it is, in ridiculously low resolution but at least stiill legible
-F

@JulieSqveakaroo this is reminding me of that "guys i found the bard!" thing
-F

you've heard of macaroni and cheese

but have you ever thought to try macaroons and cheese?

(don't)
-F

@hi_cial yeah i know but i feel a little bad for repeatedly giving people notifications
