Red Bull is this energy drink that's about 3 dollars a can, really syrupy and tastes like burnt raspberry's and pen ink. I had some of this stuff a long time ago when I was helping ym friends move and I almost puked, and the caffine count kept me awake for about 3 days.
Discuss this poison that has befound the beverage industry.
Mix it with Hawaiin Punch. It gives you the bang without the blah. The taste is horrible when you drink it straight.
Also, according to BJ, if you drink it after a night of drunk-ness you avoid a hangover.
Hooooooly *edit hahaha I can't swear <3* it tastes bad but seems good.....I don't know how to explain it but as much as I cringed as I drank it, I kept going back.
My college gets free cans about once a week when they come by and hand them out.
It does taste good :p I usually mix it with vodka, but it's good without mixing too.
Where's the petition?
V is better.
That's what I was thinkin.Quote:

This probably is the petition.
Never tasted it and I don't want to even if it does give you wings.
Well then I petition that we have a petition!
it doesn't taste bad, but I don't really drink it either.
. . . I haven't tried it myself but it smells awful. I'll just stick to good ol'e sweet tea.
Somewhere in England, people mixed the Red Bull with alchohal, and because the combination of stimulant (Red Bull) and depressant (alchohal) it stopped their heart and killed them! Think before you mix!
It doesn't give you wings (as the logo states), but the taste is pretty good.
I like the taste and I drink it every Friday morning in an attempt to be more awake (I'm dead by Friday...). Usually just one or two cans, but I don't notice that it helps much. I still drink it though.
umm some one say "Red bull"? Give it over now Hmm Caffeine I usually drink around two cans a morning if I have to be awake and alert before 12.00 that or its six cups of coffee or at a push but this is expensive a pack of 96 pro plus. As you can see me being at college is an expensive situation daily
Nothing can keep me awake during classes. NOTHING!
What about sexual activities?Quote:

I haven't tried the stuff, personally, but I've heard it tastes like piss in a can. I really don't plan on tryin' it, 'cause all I need is Sobe's No Fear!
*signs petition to rid world of Red Bull*
*recommends Yam to take a class to teach him how to not sleep in class*
Or take a sleeping class.Quote:

*attempting to stay on topic* Hrmm, they really need to jack down the prices of energy drinks.
I used to like it, but now my stomach rejects anything with caffeine in it making me puke a lot. It sux.
EDIT: OK, that stomach problem was totally unrelated to caffeine, and even to my stomach. I am glad to report it no longer bugs me.

Pfft. Red Bull & Vodka is the single most disappointing concoction in existence. Of course, that stems from the fact that vodka is terrible unless you drink it straight, and Red Bull is so ridiculously awesome it shouldn't be contaminated with anything. I wish I were drinking red bull now. I should write to the company and somehow swindle some of its magic elixiry goodness. V is cheaper for a reason, and although it works, it will never hold the same place in my heart as Red Bull. Mmm, coffee. Yes, coffee is fantastic too. If everyone drank large amounts of coffee, the world would be a better place because we'd all be in such brilliant moods all the time, but Red Bull doesn't burn you, doesn't need sugar, and is generally easier to drink because it doesn't involve you pacing around Aotea Square waiting for the coffee machine to hurry up, and no one has ever said "Sorry we're all out of soy Red Bull!" This is getting depressing. I need to go out and acquire caffiene, so that for a brief moment my life isn't as empty as the discarded carriers of caffiene, guarana and aspartame that fell before me.
All that stuff is nasty.. I don't need anymore energy as it is anyways so I don't drink it. And alcohol is bad for you!
's bad. Don't get addicted to it. You'll get really messed up, I'm serious for once, caffeine has the same symptoms as anxiety and nervousness, which includes lack of blood to digestive system and no blood flow to the skin, which can cause SERIOUS disorders. Cold, pale twitchy people with no craving for food.
But then, and then again, chicks dig pale scrawny guys.
So you get skinny goth chicks with tons of energy. Awesome!
xD
Stop predicting my post edits before I edit my posts...
I'll ANGRY FACE you good I will!
IT'S TRUE!

ANGRY FACEED!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyway, I can't live without caffiene. Never had Reb Bull. I usually just drink Dew or Bawls(its made from guarana berries and has a rather high caffiene content, although I don't know how it compares to regular energy drinks)
I've had red-bull before. It's easily got the consistancy of water when you compare it to my coffee. Now That's some caffine intake.
I've had this stuff mixed with some yagermiester...it was excellent. I did not get anything off of it, but it still was excellent.
Hm. instant coffee - perk coffee - expresso.
Hey, now I want to try Red Bull warm. Hm.
Wow my opinions really get out to people...
That'd actually mean some thing to me if I wasn't such a hypocrite!
Dammit! More people need to post in this thread. If I can't feed my caffiene addiction online, I'm going to have to leave and acquire actual caffiene. I give you thirty seconds. Then I'm gone! 250ml of guarana + B Vitamins, stat! Skittles skittles skittles, wait that isn't even the same. Okay. Okay. Okay. I bet no one else has posted yet. Waiting. Waiting. ARGH I CAN'T WAIT ANY LONGER GOING TO COLLAPSE PANIC POSTING LEAVING ASLKSJDL;KJSL;KJ
Red Bull is crap. You should try Amp instead! <3
Never.
It wasn't supposed to be something you drink for the flavor. It's what you drink when you go raving and dance to the point where you can't stand any longer. Have a swig and you'll be back on your feet in no time. I'm not big on the taste but I will admit that it has grown on me.
I havnt tried red bull, but have tried SOBE: NO FEAR has lotta ginseng in it and what not. Such a pussy when it comes to drinking energy drinks, cuz they taste so damn awful. :mad:
It's not bad. I kind of like invigor8, because it's juice. Caffeinated juice. With vitamins.
if you mange to get this to work and ban all red bull in the world I demand you send it all to me and possibly some to calliope but other than that it becomes mine and we see just how much caffiene the human body can take at once!!!! :D
No.
BAWLS!
Red balls it's cocaine ina can!
That skit was so great. :DQuote:

Hmm Jolt cola *drools at the distant memories* Joel you're evil for mentioning that stuff we used to get it in 7 / 11 over here in the UK however since the company pulled out of the UK we cant buy it anywhere and they wont ship it from think geek to me cause of pressurised containers and air travel dont mix.
Hence I demand more red bull
I never did get to party like a rock star ;_;
my friends have banned me from vodka mixxing with red bull they think it makes me want to have a fight.
I concur!Quote:

I tried it along time ago, and I have no wings, so thanks to this thread I'm going to sue now.
Sales of Jolt Cola are disallowed in Illinois. I can't get the stuff... I need someone to smuggle it in.
Whatever happened to a regular cup of joe?

I'm not sure if its illegal here or not, but I know that it isn't availible here.
It's definitely illegal. I've heard it's a death penalty offense.
No.
No caffeine drinks, I try and consume as little as possible.
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)
