Energy Drinks - Posted By Marc (cr0w) on 2nd Jan 08 at 4:28am
Jolt = Smiley

I know energy drinks are bad for you, but they taste so good. {Tongue Out} My favourite kind is the worst of all. {Tongue Out} [Jolt Ultra (the one with 225 teaspoons of caffeine in it. {Shocked} )]

What's your favourite, and why?

How many of your favourite energy drink would you need to drink to die?

I was going to make this thread. I like Red Bull and Blue Balls. Jolt is too growse for me. I did try Cocaine. That was my favorite, not because of the name, but the taste. But, like no one sells it anymore. Monster, meh, try again guys. Stingy, bad taste.

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By Marc (cr0w) on 2nd Jan 08 at 4:33am
The "Cocaine" energy drink was taken off the market because of, well, its name. {Tongue Out}

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By gray929 (gray929) on 2nd Jan 08 at 4:40am
Yea, no suprises there.'tis a shame. 'twas a good drink. They are so stupid. All you have to do is change the name and YOU WILL MAKE MONEY!

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By Danny (schnooble) on 2nd Jan 08 at 4:51am
My favourite is either Rockstar or Relentless

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By blu (blu) on 2nd Jan 08 at 5:01am
I've never had any of those, but I have had my fair share of Ripit. {Tongue Out}

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By Danny (schnooble) on 2nd Jan 08 at 5:02am
{Tongue Out} ive never had that {Sad} {Tongue Out}

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By blu (blu) on 2nd Jan 08 at 5:04am
It takes a minute to get used to the taste, but it's overall very good. {Smile}

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By Danny (schnooble) on 2nd Jan 08 at 5:07am
are you from the uk ?, because I dont think anywhere sells it.

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By Graham (amusedtodeath) on 2nd Jan 08 at 11:04am
It's an American product {Smile}

Personally, i have a slight addiction to Red Bull...i've got a case of it sitting here {Embarassed}

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By Virtualize (virtualize) on 2nd Jan 08 at 4:17pm
I don't drink energy drinks. {Tongue Out}

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By Anselm (Anselm) on 2nd Jan 08 at 4:22pm

I've tried that, doesn't work...at all. {Unsure}

Also, this thread is screwed up again. {Tongue Out} My post is 5th or so on the page, even though I created the thread? o.O

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By tricky.cb (crazyblue) on 3rd Jan 08 at 12:59am
MONSTER! I love Monster, its the best drink ever made.

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By XeroCint (kai) on 3rd Jan 08 at 1:42am
Sure you need it ever again {Tongue Out} ?

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By tricky.cb (crazyblue) on 3rd Jan 08 at 4:01pm
My mom doesn't actually allow me to buy energy drinks as much as I used to because I was blowing so much money on them ( About $200 ) and they are pretty bad for your health.

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By Michael (wrighty) on 3rd Jan 08 at 4:59pm
$200 a month? week? Day? Hour? Year? Century? {Tongue Out}

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By XeroCint (kai) on 3rd Jan 08 at 5:00pm

I was thinking the same thing

A day... tats like 100 a day...are you dead?

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By tricky.cb (crazyblue) on 3rd Jan 08 at 5:05pm
If someone could drink 100 of really.. anything, they would probably die of overactive bladder. I was talking overall, but I started drinking them exactly a year ago.

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By tricky.cb (crazyblue) on 3rd Jan 08 at 5:08pm
If you drink 3 in a very short amount of time your supposed to pass out, I'll try it this summer.

I did one in a few moments. It had no effect on me. I was so sad Image

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By Michael (wrighty) on 3rd Jan 08 at 5:09pm
^ that's a load of rubbish... Are we talking Monster or just energy Drinks in general?

I have drank about 4 or 5 red Bull in one go and meh I was fine! {Cheesy}

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By tricky.cb (crazyblue) on 3rd Jan 08 at 5:12pm
I read it off a Monster can, let me find one and I'll tell you what it says.

I used to do that a lot, no major problems to note about. The effect all depends on the individual anyway, and their health, metabolism etc.

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By tricky.cb (crazyblue) on 3rd Jan 08 at 5:27pm
"Consume responsibly - Limit 3 cans per day. Not recommended for children, pregenant woman or people sensitive to caffeine."

Wrighty, I believe your all 3 of those. {Shocked}

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By Marc (cr0w) on 3rd Jan 08 at 6:51pm

I agree with Wrighty, that's untrue. {Tongue Out} Me and some friends had an energy drinking competition once, and I had 2 Monsters, 3 Red Bulls, and a Jolt in under 5 minutes, and I was fine. Didn't sleep that night, but I was fine. {Tongue Out}

Every few days. {Tongue Out}

Oh! I found the site I was looking for! {Grin}

http://www.energyfiend.com/death-by-caffeine/

What are your results? {Tongue Out}

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By XeroCint (kai) on 3rd Jan 08 at 6:58pm
You could drink 51.19 cans of Monster before croaking

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By Graham (amusedtodeath) on 3rd Jan 08 at 7:01pm
174 cans of Red Bull.

I'll take that bet {Tongue Out}

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By XeroCint (kai) on 3rd Jan 08 at 7:01pm
looks like Boo-Koo has the most caffeine

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By Marc (cr0w) on 3rd Jan 08 at 7:06pm
Quote:
40.33 cans of Jolt Cola + You = Death.


I know the site's not perfect though; everybody's body has a different tolerance level to certain things, but at least it gives you an idea of how bad it really is. {Tongue Out}

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By tricky.cb (crazyblue) on 3rd Jan 08 at 7:13pm
54.17 cans of Monster + You = Death.

Does that mean in my whole life or one day? Because I've already had about 82 or so Monsters in my whole life XD

It means at one time [or one right after the after]. {Wink}

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By tricky.cb (crazyblue) on 3rd Jan 08 at 7:16pm
Oh. I think I'd pass out before I'd reach it. I'm not going to say 3 is going to make me pass out but you know after awhile it would get really crazy.

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By Cryhavoc_ (Virtuoso) on 3rd Jan 08 at 7:36pm
Though I scarcely find them wholly effective, Red Bull and Jolt usually get me going, haha.

Re: Energy Drinks - Posted By tricky.cb (crazyblue) on 3rd Jan 08 at 7:40pm
I drink Full Throttle a lot more now because my mom knows it isn't as effective. I don't care though, it all tastes good.
