    Totally for real. I was reminded of how the other 95% live a couple months ago. I hadn't seen a McDonalds commercial in a long-ass time, nor been into an actual McDonalds in a way longer time. But yeah, I was at my Ma's zoning out in front of the TV when this MickyD's ad came on. I was totally floored by the size of the sodas these two love birds were drinking from on their McDate. Seriously looked like comedic props to me, but its what passes for normal nowadays..

    900ml is nearly a kilo of beverage, people out there must be super fit from constantly hefting them.

    You have to factor in the amount of ice in the cup. The actual amount of immediately consumable liquid is less than max capacity.

    i recall being a young child and playing at the bar while the adults had their afternoon pints. and i distinctly remember thinking "how can these people still be thirsty?" after watching the red-nosed men ordering their fourth or fifth pint of beer.

    if you've ever had a night out where you just get absolutely gunned, just think about actual amount of liquid you're consuming. it's totally absurd.

    Exactly, people seem to be missing this key point. I look forward to having a trenta iced chai latte w/skim when the weather gets warmer.

    yeah i read about this in the paper the other day, i mean every so often i get down on some Grande Chai Latte action, but even with the grande i find by the time i get to the bottom of it, its cold, couldnt imagine drinking anything larger then that, specially a Trenta...

    next year they'll introduce the Starbucks Kegga, a keg sized drink, for those who just cant get enough...lol

    Exactly. It's iced drinks only. Henceforth, I will be ordering my iced coffee in a bucket.
