It’s not unholy, it’s just less holy. There is still one hole.
What are you ladies doing tonight

How the fuck do you make a suicide with the cloaca?
phdepressed@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
Instead of levers you have to choose on the screen.
Kolanaki@pawb.social 10 months ago
I’m sure it’s just a software thing, because even with the flavor mix-ins, they didn’t give you every possible combination at any I’ve personally used.
Click Coke, you get Coke, Diet Coke, Coke Zero, and then, like, Vanilla, Cherry, Lemon, Lime, etc flavors. Click Sprite and now the only flavor options are Orange and Cherry. Why the hell can I not have vanilla sprite? Why are all the other soda options not also a mix-in flavor option? Make it make sense!
knightly@pawb.social 10 months ago
I want to hack one of these machines so I can dial in a precise and repeatable mix. =3
Bahnd@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Sigh… Your supposed to let it run for a second when you switch drinks. Noone wants to drink homeopathic Fanta, or I-Cant-Believe-Its-Not Coke with lime.
PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 10 months ago
Wrong.
It’s called swamp water, and as kids we loved it. Mixem all up!i_dont_want_to@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 months ago
That is a lot better than what we called them: a suicide.
Swamp water is the name of a regional beverage where I am.
chaogomu@lemmy.world 10 months ago
I was a bit of an amateur mixologist as a child, and the top machine was my pallet.
But what was more, the corner store gas station that was down the street from my childhood home had multiple machines, each with 4 or 5 different drink options.
Years later, a friend of mine worked there as a summer job and told the friend group to avoid the fountain drinks so we did, and probably all still do.

Hundreds of feet of uncleanable moldy tubes vs. one easily cleanable opening.
PwnTra1n@lemmy.world 10 months ago
There’s just as many moldy tubes just less moldy nozzles, and less doesn’t mean 0 now

I bought an old classic soda dispenser and I can tell you that no matter how much you clean the root beer spout, you will always taste root beer if you switch out the drink to coke.
Same goes for coke to sprite. You can taste the coke, it’s just not as bad as the root beer.
SippyCup@lemmy.ml 10 months ago
So those old soda dispensers are supposed to be broken down and cleaned every couple of days. When I worked at a restaurant we had a service contact with Coca-Cola to do it. I worked at a TGIChillibees so it’s not like the maintenance contract was a big deal. Smaller family owned restaurants probably can’t afford it, and don’t take the time to do it.
jaschen306@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
Ya, I got sick of cleaning it that it just became a soda water dispenser. Lol
ObviouslyNotBanana@piefed.world 10 months ago
Makes sense. Root beer has a really specific, pretty strong taste. So does coke, but not in the same manner.
jaschen306@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
I tried bleach, vinegar, a bunch of different enzymes. Just ended up giving up and buying a whole new dispenser and spout. Essentially was contaminated from the inside out.
JizzmasterD@lemmy.ca 10 months ago
I don’t even care. The lime-flavoured Diet Coke allows me to transcend the vastness of space and time in a trance-like state.
Yummers.
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 10 months ago
The cloaca is the orifice of champions and I will not stand for this cloaca slander. Libel. Whatever.
I’m gonna sit for it because I’m shitting
Sterile_Technique@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Worked at a fast food place ages ago, and I remember cleaning the caps of each fountain of the top image: they were pretty horrific. Another poster mentioned mold… they’re not exaggerating. They were probably the second-nastiest surface in the restaurant, second only to the floor of the bathrooms.
Now, I’m under no illusion that the Cloa-Cola dispenser is actually sanitary, but it’s gotta be better than the other model.
ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 10 months ago
People I met who worked at a dessert factory said “no one cleans the ice cream machine because it smells bad when you open it”
Not to say they shouldn’t be shutdown but I bet mold is more common than people think.
Ardyssian@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
Heh - Cloaca Cola
i_dont_want_to@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 months ago
I can taste when they haven’t cleaned the nozzles for a very long time. I try not to think about how moldy they are even when I can’t taste it.
Sterile_Technique@lemmy.world 10 months ago
What did it for me was the bugs. Those little fruit-fly fuckers… they love sugar, and those taps are a concentrated source. Until someone turns it on, and they get blasted off the tube and stuck onto the sticky inside surface of the cap, where they die and continue to get blasted with concentrate, so there’s this membrane of soda residue, dead fruit flies, and mold.
…infact the taste you’re referencing might legit be rotting bugs if it has a kind of rancid protein flavor.
I wonder how many of those fruit flies get blasted straight into people’s drink vs onto the edge of the cap, where they’re just sucked up through a straw and drank by a customer who’s none the wiser.
Nom nom.

Don’t be scared. Fancy machine won’t hurt you. Let’s get you to bed grandpa.

I don’t want my cola mixing with Sprite in the drink cloaca! I just want my fries and greasy burger with a crisp white sprite you damn kids don’t understand!
Quadhammer@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Vanilla tainted everything
tempest@lemmy.ca 10 months ago
My beef with them are three fold.
- They have been around for a decade and the elderly seem to still have screen terror and freeze up and take forever
- There are often fewer of these machines and children plug the hole trying one sip of every flavor
- I’ve thrown out cellphones with faster interfaces than these things and the damn screens get gross after a while if not cleaned constantly
SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 10 months ago
Women's taints will get shorter as evolution brings them towards their own sexy cloaca and I'm all for it.

Its why I only Drink Dr. Pepper put of those multi-fountains because if you mix all drinks together it tastes like Dr. Pepper.

I enjoy the cloaca for the liquid choices and varities it provides.
My only complaint is the screen is never clean
lemming741@lemmy.world 10 months ago
The screen is the dirty part you’re worried about?
arrow74@lemmy.zip 10 months ago
Pretty much yeah. I know the nozzle is dirty, but that’s just food stuff. Plus it’s a problem even with the regular fountain.
The grime and snot on the screen comes from unknown sources. I don’t like that
Gork@sopuli.xyz 10 months ago
Screen also has pretty poor responsiveness. Have to tap at it a few times to get it to register your input.
Credibly_Human@lemmy.world 10 months ago
I like me a drink cloaca. A human cloaca would have been much more egalitarian. Straight, gay, lesbian, you get the same shit.
richardmtanguay@lemmings.world 10 months ago
This leaves me to wonder why not every restaurant has switched to the Freestyle machine as yet. :-(

Cloaca-Cola

That sounds like a furry-branded cola.
(Furry artists should be more embrasing of the cloaca)
