Is the new bottle identical to the bottle after the sip was taken? That would mean each copy has less juice than the one before it. So although the total amount of juice increases when a copy is made (at least until the sip is larger than the remaining juice), it would still run out eventually.

[–] CaptainBlagbird@lemmy.world 27 points 1 week ago

Good question. The same goes for the label. If I rip it away and burn it before drinking, would I then turn into a bottle that also doesn't have a label, making it even more dangerous to other people.

[–] weird@sub.wetshaving.social 11 points 1 week ago

Now these are the real questions

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

Bottle prime would still have the same amount though, and infinite copies of that (minus 1 drop) could be made of if

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You could also refill the first bottle after each clone, then all cloned bottles would be full -2 sips.

But only if you could resist sipping it yourself before refilling.

[–] pruwybn@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 week ago

Good point, I hadn't thought of that.

[–] pruwybn@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It would have less every time someone drinks from it.

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 week ago

oh... doy. I thought I had this figured out

[–] HowAbt2day@futurology.today 5 points 1 week ago

And even faster if you pour it into a glass like a decent human versus drinking straight from the bottle like my mom would say, “a goddam animal like your father”.

[–] spicytuna62@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Once all of the fuller bottles are depleted, we're gonna see some exponential growth in the bottle population.

[–] Nurse_Robot@lemmy.world 25 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I know I would become one of those juices

“Here, drink this”

[–] CaptainBlagbird@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago (3 children)

But what does it taste like?

[–] HowAbt2day@futurology.today 18 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It tastes like the other bottles. They’re identical.

[–] pruwybn@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

But what do the other bottles taste like?

[–] HowAbt2day@futurology.today 3 points 1 week ago

The first bottle, IIRC.

How is a bottle able to type?

Ha! Kid and Play for someone of my intelligence! All you have to do is drink an Odd just a sip and the rest of the Juice is yours!

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 7 points 1 week ago

"My God... The juice is loose!"

[–] nialv7@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

ok but how does this works? if i pour it on the ground and lick it, do i turn into a puddle? or it stops working because technically it's no longer a "bottle of juice"?

[–] kkj@lemmy.dbzer0.com 23 points 1 week ago (2 children)

It just turns you into the same bottle. The juice is what transforms you; the bottle is just a convenient inbuilt warning.

[–] nialv7@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Makes sense. I feel there should be law mandating the juice be sold in the original bottle so that consumers can be well informed what they are transforming into.

[–] gandalf_der_12te@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 week ago (3 children)

what if you pour it into the ocean? eventually it will become the drinking water for everyone. what if people turn only a little bit into a bottle because of the small dosis? how do you turn into a bottle just a little bit?

[–] OneWomanCreamTeam@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It says "even a sip", so I suppose it's a question of what is the minimal amount of juice that counts as a sip. If it's diluted enough it might only half transform you into a bottle of juice.

how would that look..?

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 3 points 1 week ago

I'm a little bit of a bottle, short and stout,

Here is my handle, here is my AHHHHH OH GOD IT HURTS! KILL ME NOW AND END MY SUFFERING, DEAR MERCIFUL GOD!

[–] kkj@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 week ago

They'd get a hell of a lot less than a sip. I assume that nothing happens until you have a complete sip, since it seems to be instantaneous (the bottle in the foreground has cartoon "pop" lines).

[–] inconel@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Hypothetically asking, can I get one and serve in a glass to someone else?

[–] weird@sub.wetshaving.social 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[–] inconel@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Ok. I'm getting really hypothetical here, but leaving this at party can spread the juice quickly and even wider spread if it gets into water system. Whole life on earth will turn juice soon...

[–] nialv7@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

so like a Cat's Cradle kind of situation? 🤔

A wise man say: If we drink the juice, are we not ourselves changed?

But im so thristy

[–] Master@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

What happens if you pour a bit of 3 different bottles into a cup, mix it up and then drink it. Which bottle do you turn into?

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

When someone takes a sip, does an equal amount of elixir drain from each? Is this a finite resource?

[–] weird@sub.wetshaving.social 7 points 1 week ago

No, each bottle is an independent entity

We're doing juice memes now?

I'm off to bed, but I hope somebody makes a 'juice that turns you into beans' meme before morning so I don't have to

[–] loomy@lemy.lol 1 points 1 week ago

but maybe these were all just originally bottles?

Like a human but mangled and compressed into the shape of of a juice bottle.
