Red Bull Energy drink petition

Okay folks! I have three cans of red bull in my bag. Now, do I drink them now, or do I display large amounts of willpower and save them for later in the week?

(now! now!)

If you drink them now, your body will be overloaded with caffeine.

Is that really wise?

If I cared I wouldn't drink it at all, I'd just stick to my usual intake of water and green tea.

and crystal methedrine!!!!

spark plugs for your mind

Callope, just throw them away. You'll puke them back up later.

Hasn't happened yet, Joel :D

Then find something to do for the next 3 days, because you won't be sleeping for the time.

actually joel it's proven (by me testing it out on myself) that if you take a seriously large overdose of caffiene you go hyper for around two hours (can even get the jitters like on speed) and then you burn out and fall asleep ~ The testing area for this was a night out clubbing after no sleep since the previous night in the pub I was tired but there was a band playing live I wanted to see so forgoing my alchohol I brought 150 Pro plus caffiene tablets (50mg of caffeine each) and two cans of redbull I took all of the caffeine and then went in to the club hyper active stayed awake until 11 then fell asleep 10 minutes before the band played got woke up when it closed by a mate who found it hilariously funny that I'd slept throughout without being molested with a marker pen, I guess that was to do with the girl on my lap also asleep, who was hot and I didn't know her name but apparently we pulled...Meh :moomba:

I didn't like the stuff simply because it tasted like crap. I did get to fly around for a few days though. I still can't figure out why.

well if one of you americans (who are all very safe btw) would like to buy a load of Jolt cola and ship it to me I would easily betray my Red bull drinking comrades.

(we cant get jolt anymore in the uk :cry: )

I wonder why Jolt Cola is banned everywhere...when it has less caffeine in it per serving than your average cup of coffee...and Red Bull has more caffeine per serving than Jolt Cola...

Although I did run across the fact that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration does monitor caffeine content in soft drinks, and has a maximum of 6 mg of caffeine per ounce of liquid (how's that for mixing your systems? :) ) And Jolt is supposedly the last one over the line. However, it doesn't regulate other beverages so tightly, so Red Bull (an "energy drink") can have 80 mgs of caffeine per can; Java Water (under "bottled water") can have 125 mgs per bottle; and normal brewed coffee can have up to 135 mgs per cup.

In other words, soda pop is gettin' a bum rap.

I'm daring myself to stay off the caffiene for a week.

Man, this week is going to suck :hat:

Jolt tastes AWFUL, though. Worse than Red Bull, even.

Jolt is banned because it's got so much caffiene that if you drink enough of it at once you'll die.

"Jolt is banned because it's got so much caffiene that if you drink enough of it at once you'll die."


"enough of it" = 6.5 gallons, in a short period (24.6 L)
