Seriously, stay away from Foosh mints. Or at least keep the tin away from reaching distance so you don't absent-mindedly consume like 2g of caffeine.

I sat down, launched TF2, had a mint because I was kinda tired from school. Three hours later, "Huh? Where'd... Oh, s***." I stayed up 72 hours straight in the middle of the week, followed by a 3pm-6am crash. Never again.\

Hmm, found some beaver buzz online, probably will order some online later, I'm quite poor atm. :P

Sight Unseen, that just makes me want some more. I'll take the advice about keeping them out of reach though :D

I didn't want to start a new energy drink forum just to ask, but has anyone here every had a 5-hour energy, and are they that bad for you, cause I was thinking about drinking one before work cause I get up at 5:30 and do manual labor and get tired by 1, when I get off, but then when I get home I have to run. Coffee doesn't cut it, and I sleep like 6.5 hours at night and 2 hours during the day, which should be enough, but I was just wondering about 5-hour energy

Tastes pretty bad, but ya know what? It's not too bad caffeine wise and it gives you a good jolt at first and then you feel pretty awake throughout the day (But I find you need to be focused on doing something or else you'll get tired easily).

If you eat with an energy drink, it can help reduce the loss of energy when you come down at the end.

I love energy drinks. ^ ^
Prefer RedBull. :awesome:
That is actually just next to me. :D

do you people prefer the sugar free version of the various energy drinks or with sugar? i've been drinking the sugar free V and it tastes better than the normal ones. same with redbull, the sugar free ones are better.

Hm... I did not know that there are sugar free.
And they taste better? :)


Which I must try. :D

With sugar. Sweeteners just don't taste right.

I'm with HnM.
If you're going to destroy your body with caffeine and chemicals might as well throw some sugar in there.

And sugar-free tastes like ass.

Energy drinks.... thats power right from hell.. I love such stuff :D

Then drink some Beaver Buzz, douche bag.

Five hour energy scares me :shock: I don't like how it's in such a small amount. At least with a regular energy drink, you can decide you don't like the way it makes you feel and stop. 5 hour, after one shot you're just stuck feeling like crap :P

Well how does caffeine effect everyone?

For me I don't get hyper I just get really really tense and my thoughts race so fast and I feel like beating the **** outta someone.

By now I got a pretty good tolerance to large amounts of caffeine :P

But really, the only thing it'll do is help me focus if I'm tired or keep me up for an extra hour or two.

Yeah sugar free energy drinks taste fine to me also. In fact, my favorite is Rockstar zero carb which taste better then the original imo. With energy drinks the taste of sugar vs. artificial sweetener doesn't seem to be as noticeable, for me at least.
