Damm I never considered that. I always thought it was a drink

This is actually a very good way of dealing with people in an emotional state: Say something so off the fucking wall and irrelevant that it snaps people out of it.

honestly, this is not a terrible idea

if you see someone at the verge of a panic attack that means they're fully in their head spiraling - you can try to calm them down the normal way, but you can also try to force them out of their own head and ground them by saying something weird, ideally a question so their mind can latch onto it. It won't always work, but it might shock them just the right amount to ground them!

That's why Mr. Pibb emphasized clarity to avoid misgendering. He actually has a Ph. D. in archaeology, but made the humble choice to still go by Mr.

I get that everyone's shit posting here, but the answer is that it's believed Dr. Pepper as a name might be directly referencing an actually Dr. who lived in the area the drink was invented in, but we're honestly not sure about that at all

Its entirely possible that it was called that because it was sold in pharmacies and was "spicy" (thus Dr. Pepper), or another alternative I've heard is basically that idea but it has caffeine so it meant Dr. Speed, basically

All that to say: Dr. Pepper is gender fluid, dipshits, I'll see myself out

WTF?!? I've always thought of Dr Pepper as the looking like the Pringles man cos playing as an old timey doctor. You know: mustache, bowtie, head mirror and lab coat. Dr Pepper is married to another doctor though, Dr Pepper Cherry. All the other men in the neighborhood wants her. The Peppers have one child, who's going through a rough patch, dealing with a negative self image, never being as good as his parents, and anorexia. Child's name is Dr Pepper Light.

Dr. Pepper has a brother too. The brother got into some stupid shit and didn't finish high school. Now he lives in a trailer park, trying to prove to everyone he's just as good as his brother, but everyone thinks of him as a redneck drunk on account of his last name. He goes by the name Root Beer. His wife's name is Ginger, she's a hottie from Jamaica.

So how dare you question my world view? Hey would you look at that my panic attack is gone. Now I just have a hard on, a can of cherry pepper and a wish to mix it with some ginger beer and rum. I call the drink a "drunk ffm".

I've always thought of Dr Pepper as either a can or a company, never a person, let alone specifically enough to have a gender.

Pretty sure Dr. Pepper's pronouns are so/da, no need to assume their gender

When I first saw this I realized I had assumed Dr. Pepper (beyond the drink) was a man, but I think for me it was because as a kid I remember commercials with a deep voiced man and my dumb kid brain thought that was the doctor.

That unironically might work tho Like getting their mind off of the current thought spiral can be pretty helpful sometimes

This Dr. Pepper? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pepper_Schwartz

She isn't?

Dr. Pepper's pronouns are we/us, because 🎵 Dr. Pepper you're a part of me 🎵

How many licks does it take to discover Dr. Pepper's gender?

The world may never know.
