Rockstar/Monster Drinks

[John813]

Yea, I drink that ****. Don't care for the sugar loaded ones, but prefer the even more unnatural low calorie ones lol.

Through college it was my go to perk as coffee never did anything for me.
Worst stage of drinking energy drinks was post college working a full time and a part time for a bit.

And now I'm back on them due to getting around 2 hours of sleep due to mini me.

Had a physical recently and everything was in the proper places. Was nervous due to drinking near a gram a day of caffeine.

I used to do Jaeger bombs back in the day, fill a glass with Redbull then drop a shot glass of Jaeger in it, I'm sure that was healthy

nothing like mixing a stimulant with a barbiturate at the same time.

Probably not much worse you can put into your body.

Lol. I beg to differ, my brother (and I don’t drink these things).

There are plenty of substances, much worse than an energy drink, that you can put in your body

I take a small handful of benzos every night. Not a barbiturate. But a benzodiazepine.

You can’t even find barbiturates any more unless you’re obscenely connected and wealthy.

This ain’t the ‘60’s, hoss

Marilyn Monroe and her ilk were the last of the “barbi” craze

Marilyn Monroe went buh byes, as did her times. There are no more barbiturates, practically speaking.

But way to age yourself.

Coming through school in the 80's alcohol was considered a Barbiturate, I had no idea it got reclassified as a depressant. Either way love em some Vodka and Red Bull.

Absolutely. Alcohol, benzos, and barbi’s all share very similar physiological and psychological qualities and require a taper off so as not to induce seizures.

Only thing is, it’s easier to OD on benzos and barbis than it is alcohol (alcohol poisoning). Due to the pill vs fluid intake

Barbiturates were fire back in the day. Shame they weren’t available when I was on my run jk

The first time I drank a Monster it was like being drunk and high at the same time, very energized and talkative..

Fun 6-8 hrs one time only though...

I used to love double shot Americanos at Four Bucks but coming down from them was murder. I switched to roasting my own coffee beans but couldn't find the ones I liked anymore so I switched to green and white tea from Teatulia. Tea doesn't give you the jolt like coffee but it does wake you up to an alert state and the days seem a little smoother now.

I use to like NOS drinks until I read the label and it had double the sugar than other drinks.

 

[maxdogg]

I love sugar free Red Bull !!
When I have to get up at 3 am and drive for hours the stuff keeps you awake.

 

[YosemiteSam]

I love these stupid things!! People drink coffee, I drink these. It's a terrible habit but I can't seem to shake it. I'm almost convinced they put something in these that gets people addicted.

Anyways, anybody else stuck in the purgatory of energy drink hell with me?

Suicide in a can. I'll pass.

Just had a Monster today. Love it!!!!
