     @mer how should it enrage em tbh
     it's just that non big brand energy drinks in plastic bottles, 1 liter volume, are commonplace
     although i preferred glass bottle energy drinks, but they stopped stocking them for some fucking reason after i regularly bought them and literally took the last couple bottles from the fridge

     @lina I don't think it actually would, it's just like saying roundabouts confuse and enrage americans, it's just a joke

     @7666 @mer oh you mean that, that's just normal in the normal world, if it's a pack of 6, you can take all 6 or you can take one or two out of it and leave the rest in the pack and nothing will happen to you

     @mer @lina I think the problem here in the US is that we immediately assume that someone stole a drink out of a six pack that is only sold as a six pack. Buying a single unit out of an item sold as a set is not commonplace here at all.

     @7666 @mer the 6 packs here are more for transportation purposes, not for packaging as a product

     @7666 @lina no, the thing was that it's six liters of off brand energy drink in transparent plastic bottles (letting you see the drink looks like dehydrated piss) when americans only see the gouged price tallboy cans

     @mer @7666 my off brand 1 liter energy drink bottle is green and the drink itself is opaque-lime colored kinda like a mojito soda is, but i did see dehydrated piss-esque energy drinks in glass bottles and once the clerk mistook it for beer lmao

     @mer @lina hmm. Guess we see different things. I remember in Germany seeing the bottles like that was a little interesting and I felt weird just popping open a new pack because I just wanted one.

     @LordFireCrotch @mer then you're gonna be buying a gas cylinder kit because we're installing a liquified gas alternate fuel system since you didn't bring petrol to drain the old one and replace it with fresher, higher octane petrol
