23_ I've had a Red Bull and a Nos before, and they seemed to have no effect on me at all.

MarioRPG I don't know if I wanna even bother with trying the powders / whatever, when I need energy I don't like waiting to measure 1 part to 2 parts water.

Nah it's bollocks.

SLEEPER The most effective energy drink I've tried by far is Guarana powder. It may taste not so great but will help keep energy levels up for for about 4 hours. Too much though will makeyou jittery. Guarana powder can be mixed with anything. I usually mix it with fruit juice or boiling water and sweeten it with honey.

Chojin I agree :o

MarioRPG I just had an overnight shift and hand a tropical Full Throttle, it was damn good and did not mess me up in any way.

Back in August I was hospitalized briefly after having a panic attack that I think was at least partially induced by Red Bull.
It could be a number of things. Most likely, you're allergic to something. But, if you tend to be a really hyper person, or naturally high strung, etc., then the extra boost can wreck your shit up. For me, it used to be bad for me. I had a whole monster at work because i was falling asleep, and falling asleep when you are single handedly keeping a tae kwon do summer kids camp running is a bad idea. I literally spent the next three hours running around playing with the children trying to rid myself of this extra energy, it was terrible. I was pounding on the table and practically yelling.
But I digress. You should probably stay away from energy drinks. If you must drink them, though, I would try working your way up. Like you can sometimes find cans of energy drinks that are maybe a third the regular size, especially at conventions and whatnot when companies and movies will take those mini cans of red bull and slap their own label on them. So you can work your way up, getting more used to the effect as you go. But eventually energy drinks will have no effect on you, if you drink them a lot. They can also be very addictive.

Red Bull gives you wings = Red Bull makes you a "Fairy" = Red Bull made me stick that stranger's dick into my mouth against his will in that McDonald's bathroom, Your Honor.

Stay in school. Red Bull ain't cool.

(He did give me five bucks tho.)

MarioRPG I think there's one called beaver or something that is way to high on the caffiene scale.

Leave it to beaver.

Pub Lover I once drank a can of an energy drink called Red Rooster. I had soon jumped off a roof causing permanent damage to my spine, run halfway across the city, & was arrested for trying to sleep on a very busy roundabout. I don't remember any of it.

I once drank a can of Red Bull. I had soon affectionately squeezed Tropical's knee. I remember it clearly. Red Bull makes you gay.

JediScum I've tried Red Bull once in the form of a Jaeger Bomb. The combo wasn't bad as far as taste. But 4 hours later, when I was actually trying to sleep, I had the feeling that my heart was trying to jump out of my chest. So now I drink my Jaegermeister straight, thanks.

I also drank a Chaser once. I felt like I was on bathtub crank gone wrong for 2-3 hours. I turned beet red also from all the damn niacin. Don't get me wrong... B vitamins are damn good after a bender but not THAT many. Jesus.


The energy drink I swear by is a pot of room temperature BLACK coffee. Then slam it.
