Keep in mind, "Guys" when addressing a large crowd is generally considered gender neutral and should not be offensive. Being a person who has never considered gender a limitation, I simply don't think about my wording sometimes. In the future, I will try to be more empathetic towards easily offended people. Thanks for the comment.

I understand why people don’t like the use of “guys” as gender neutral & I’m trying hard to be sensitive to those feelings, but this one has been a real struggle for me. In many regions of the US, “guys” is just an indication of a plural group. Growing up in NJ, my Girl Scout troop leader or my dance teacher might say, “Alright, guys! Quiet down,” and it would feel completely normal. In other regions, you might use “y’all” - that’s how it’s been traditionally used here. In conclusion, I’m trying, but is old people struggle sometimes. Just know that it’s not always malicious, sometimes, people just make mistakes.

Fun facts about the japanese version: it was brought over with Admiral Perry's black ships, and given to Japanese as a gift, containing carbonated lemonade. The Japanese asked what it was, the Americans said "lemonade" which the Japanese misheard and transliterated as "Ramune". They then tried to make their own, using the same style bottles that the first ones were brought over with.(You can also buy Ramune in conventional plastic bottles, but the novelty style seems to be more popular overall.)

My friend bought me a bottle of ramune soda the other day. I've never tried it and was always intrigued by it. Anyway, I was super excited when she handed a bottle of the soda to me. I found it very novel to open. Love the little glass marble that drops down and I did really like the flavour which reminded me a lot of cream soda but much more watered down. I really liked it! Plus I liked the whole experience of opening it. Much more entertaining than twisting a cap off. Great fun

Something that my friend and I used to do with these was chuck them into the freezer for a bit. Now, there is a risk in this as freezing carbonated drinks in glass might make them explode, like beer can. However, when we would throw them into the freezer, they didn't seem to freeze until we took them out and popped the ball seal. They would then rapidly freeze before our eyes. fun to watch.

These have been around for ages, and I guess it was a way to make the whole bottle from glass sort of easily, avoiding the need for a capping machine. A John Seymour book featured such a bottle with a pointed bottom, a purely mobile device it seems.

The reason why the Japanese named it Ramune is because it was originally a British lemonade soda...As with all English to Japanese translations something got lost , it's said that they choose the word because they either thought that's what lemonade meant or that it was just an easy way to describe the soda to the Japanese people without butchering the name.
