Seriously though.

Okay maybe not so terribly seriously.

But at least half-seriously: You’ll admit, won’t you?, that she’s not actually looking at the Coke being handed to her.

Guys with that ad image in their mind were probably trolling the Jersey Shore, Coney Island and Jones Beach all summer that year liberally handing cold bottles of Coke to sunbathing young ladies in the desperate hope that even one of them would smile and lock eyes with them like that.

Stop being so emotional and insulting just because you were asked to stop spreading more of that Q internet scam crap.

Because that’s fooking stupid!
**************************************************************************
Right back at you. You are the one that started with the emotional, whiny, rude comments. And there is nothing more stupid than the crap you post day after day on thread after thread.

You act on like a total unmitigated jerk day after day after day. You act so fooking stupid that every thing you post has to be questioned as unbelievable and-insulting as you can make it but still so stupid it makes people roll on the floor laughing. 👎🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Technically the advertisement was from the Edwardian period, not Victorian, and with Coke Cola having begun production in the mid 1880's it's perfectly feasible that someone would be handing her a Coke (albeit one with actual cocaine in it). But fast forward in time to the late 40's....

*Shrugs* Well, yeah, that's our nature. It has always been thus. Doing whatever it takes to be noticed by the prettiest girl in the room - or beach. Flowers and sweets have a history as a winning combination. And post-war, the nation - society even - demanded that we transition to peacetime, put the horrors of war behind us, beat our swords into plow shares, and get 'a plowing so as to grow the population and fuel the economy. And Jersey Boys had Cokes. But there was still a strong expectation of marriage.

The inflection point you referenced as the end of all morality, I do not believe was the post war period per se, but rather the feminist movement of the 60's coinciding with the pill (at least I think the pill came out then - I wasn't alive yet). It is here that the free love culture arose in earnest (although there were previous attempts to champion it in the prior century - Victorian era).

The roaring ‘20s made a go of it too.

It appears we’re only about 90 degrees out of phase with each other RE the location on the timeline of the inflection point in question. Not too bad...

You’re spreading the QAnon internet grift. Your denial at this late juncture means little.

Education! It’s never too late.

Hi Rq, where ya been? You are like a boring ole slinky. Just sitting on the stairway of this thread.

Why are you still dwelling in imaginary land on this thread where you can find NOTHING I have peddled except that I liked the MEME at the beginning of the thread.

Bless your heart. Maybe you could provide something interesting-don’t just sit there ya slinky - show us your one trick - slinking down the stairs.

Stop rationalizing dopiness. That shite is dumb and the Q grift is dead.

Leave it dead. Learn reality. President Trump and others are clear

No reason to push BS and then whine about it being called out.

You are full of lies. Follow your own advice. Get back to reality. All I have on this thread is a post indicating I like the picture.

THAT is reality. You are pushing the BS and it’s about me. I ain’t pushing nothing on this thread, and merely responding to your rude, vile, and redundant comments to me.

All you have to do is shut up and quit posting to me. Everything I have written to you has merely been a response to your accusations and lies.

You follow your own advice, and stop your whining, and stop rationalizing your own dopy incessant posting to me. You are demonstrating an amazingly redundant snarky dopiness yourself. Just stop and leave it dead no reason to continue to beat your lying drum.

Not a picture, it’s a Q grift message and it’s a stupid lie.

You’re welcome.

I remember them...used to drink their products way back in the 50’s

Glad to know they still exist.

Too bad about coke.
I worked on the line for a bit. The 6oz bottles freshly made were fantastic.

****************************************************************************************

YOU just told a stupid lie🤣 You are plainly either a deliberate liar or severely deluded👎 - here is the picture, and my response to the picture. That is all there is on this thread from me, except for my responses to your lies.

Clearly there's a picture of a gal and a coke. My response is a thumbs up and laughing emoji.

Bless your heart. You have a lot of problems or you wouldn't continue to post crap to me-you don't want to see my posts? Then don't keep pinging me. Even an idiot could figure that out.

That’s not what I’m talking about. I don’t know why you would think that’s remotely attributable to anything Q grifter related.

You still here whining about crap?

You are the one that said it was Q related. (rolling eyeballs). I don’t know why you thought it was.

I showed you my post early on, told you I wasn’t talking about Q on this thread, but you just wouldn’t listen. So I had to show you the picture.

So now you admit that what I was replying to was not remotely attributable to Q. And all my other replies have been in response to you.

Well finally, you admit that my response to that picture was not pushing Q.

So, now please stop harassing me.

What I wrote about is exactly Q related. That you feel the need to whine and change the subject is proof enough.

Get over it already. Don’t spread stupid Qult stuff and listen to people and President Trump in the real world.

It’s not too late to get educated.

It's not too late to stop your lying. And I have asked you politely to stop posting this crap to me.

The only thing on this thread is my response to the picture of the girl and coke and responses to your lying posts. That you feel the need to continue to lie shows you are the one needing an education.

Anyone can look at this thread and see that you are lying.
Pathological lying like you are doing is likely a sign of mental illness. It's not too late to see a Dr. to help you see reality.
