    Energy Drinks

    OK. So, who else is a monster fanatic? Yes, the energy drink. I love my monster, especially khaos, and m-80 which both own... but you cant go wrong with any monster, as they are all pretty good.

    Thread title changed due to the fact that user couldn't figure out how to make a thread title really relate to their topic of discussion for others.

    Yeah. The only times I've drunk energy drinks has been in a mix with a bit more strong liquids in a bar...

    since coffee does not go well, I actually resort to these things in emergencies... mostly long drives where I get tired but don't have time to stop off and take a nap.

    The only one I like is "Bookoo", simply because I used that word as a slang adjective (it's a bastardization of the French word Bohkoo (sp?), meaning 'alot') before the drink came out. My friends gave me shit, since i sorta make up words alot, but then I found the drink in a gas station and it just cracked me up.

    Oh, and Sparks is SHIT! It's like someone simply poured a beer in a generic energy drink... disgusting...

    "Jacks up" meaning good or bad?

    Care to elaborate? I know that kids still developing physically shouldn't have energy drinks, but I've never heard of physical side-effects on adults...

    I don't really buy energy drinks unless I'm really tired (not due to natural causes, if you catch my drift), but the ones I usually buy are Monster and SoBe No Fear, the latter of which is my favorite.

    The rest of 'em are just... meh.

    I drink red bull if I have to stay awake overnight. Much too sweet but add in some ice and it's great. It's not too good to pop 4 in one night though, TS.

    There's always the old classic, the true first energy drink. Jolt Cola. Twice the caffeine as a regular soda, and now it comes in a giant vacuum sealed cylinder that always seems to foam all over my roommate's desk.

    The only other one of any consequence is Cocaine, which just got pulled from all the shelves, but will come back under a new name eventually. It was the strongest energy drink, period.

    For whatever reason, I can't stand the taste of Red Bull and most of the other ones.

    Never done energy drinks proper, the closest I have come is Lucozade.

    Apart from that I do Protein shakes, like Met-Rx.

    Has anyone here tried a Red Line? I hear that it's really strong. A pretty big friend of mine drank the entire thing (your only supposed to have half aparently) and was really twitchy for a while. I've been meaning to try it for a while now but they don't sell it where I live. =(

    I never really drink the things; all I like are Rockstar and Monster. I have tried redbull and yes... it does taste like liquid sweet tarts!

    I feel I do not need energy drinks, I use Sweet Tea!

    it works like this. I can stay up to 2 o clock in the night. After that i need something that can keep me awake. so i pop 1 at 2. and it starts to work after 15 mins giving me 30 mins of pure focussing and after that 45 mins more but now just for 50% focuss. so if i really need that allnighter i have to pop 4 .
