Lol no? The Coca Cola was made, rinsed and filled by a machine. A rinsing and filing machine if you will. And I'm sure its not named Daniel.
It's name is whatever you call it. Just like how Dickless Steve once called it Suck-o-Matic 5000
Itโs a DAN-137 washing and filling machine
They actually name their bottles like humans, "Share a coke". I recently bought an "Ivan", because I didn't want to buy a Coke and had never heard of "Share a coke" to this point, only to see the Cola-logo while paying for the bottle.
E: Lol, Daniel is listed two times on Cola's Share a coke website.
are you telling me you genuinely missed the "share a coke with" on the label and mistook the name for a different brand name?
Well I'm not an experienced coke-buyer and had never heard of it, just wanted to stop being dehydrated and tired.
Nothing like an ice cold can of Ivan to quench that thirst ๐
60+ grams of sugar is a rough side effect to trade for hydration, friend. I'm sure there are at least some options for caffeinated beverages with low to no sugar in your country. I can relate to choosing something familiar as a default when I'm tired though.
I think it actually hadn't any sugar. And if I have a choice between some softdrink with coffein and a Nestle water bottle, I'll choose the softdrink. Never will I ever buy a plastic bottle of tap water. Normally I don't buy softdrinks either, but the next place with free water was kilometers away.
Then please ignore my previous post, you made a good choice
Are you fucking with us?

I'm well aware of it. The bottle isn't named that. It's an instruction to share it with someone named that.
Never heard of it, just saw an Iwan in the fridge of the store.
It is name like that. Just saw some this morning so instead of like Coca-Cola name you will have โAdrianโ โEmmaโ โFerretyโ etc. And it is fucking confusing
Still fucking obvious it's Coca-Cola
Yup, but I was dehydrated and tired. Still not one of my proudest moments.
No they do that during summer
