      About a month ago I managed to kick my caffeine dependency.  Today, I had a Red Bull.

      I'm disappointed by the near total lack of effect.

        Really?.. I don't drink coffee… Say one cup a week max... But one can of Red Bull and I'm ready to vacuum the entire universe...

          Yeah, nothing.  Maybe I need one of the "American" sized cans.  The 250 ml can didn't even raise my heart rate.

              When I was on detail in another office I measured my caffeine intake by the pot. When I had a rough day it was a "three pot" day

              Btw, these are 64oz pots

              I can't remember when was the last time I had a caffeine rush. My states are either "caffeinated" or "non functional"

              I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose

                  My delivery system of choice was 16 oz cans of either Full Throttle or NOS.  I stopped because a) I didn't like being dependent on it to function, b) the $700 minimum I spent on energy drinks annually could buy a lot of better stuff and c) it seemed like an easy way to cut my caloric intake.  Sure enough, I lost 5 pounds when I cut them out of my daily routine.

                    I wonder if it was the caffeine or the sugar providing the lift.

                    Have you tried 5 hour energy?

                    When I'm especially desperate I take a scoop of muscle marinade, a pre-workout supplement. Pretty sure the caffeine in that is playing a supporting role to DMAA though.

                          I either drink the Red Bull with a flavour (silver, red or blue), Burn (Coca-Cola's alt for RB; you guys have that in the States?), or a knock-off cheap can… I drink it down in a couple of secs, during work, so it's not like I drink it for the taste...

                          But yeah: the Belgian chavs drink those 50 cl cans of Monster and Red Bull as if it's a regular drink... Fucking morons...  😠

                            Never seen burn. I've choked down RB many times but the whole strawberry urinal cake vibe and the fact that it's so synthetic are really off-putting for me.

                            One of my homies owns a company that makes an effervescent energy additive / vitamin supplement powder that you can add to any liquid. I go that route, just carry a few of these and dump em in water or vodka/soda if I need a boost.
