Caffeine
Used to have four cans of cheap supermarket own brand energy drink before breakfast, then as much as I could during the day. This was back in school and so I'd be buzzed in the morning, not-hungry for lunch and I'd sleep in my afternoon lessons sometimes. It made me angry and thin.

Secondary school was quite shit.

I think you'll find most of the "buzz" from these so-called caffeine drinks.
Is actually their sugar content. They've less caffeine in them than a cup of coffee.

However they have a fair amount of taurine
Hence the name Red Bull.

I bought a big can of Relentless last year
but I'm too chickenshit to drink it.

So you just have it sitting about?
It's not tasty but it won't kill you.

Yup, s'just there, on top of the fridge.
I used to like those sort of drinks but I decided to give up caffeine a while ago and hardly have these days.

Wanted to try the Relentless but it's too much for me to drink in one go and Mr Quar won't touch it!

Try the Red Bull from Thailand
its like an even stronger concentrated syrup in a cough medicine bottle. Deadly, i'm sure Thailand's food standards agency is somewhat more lax than ours :-s

Mix that with
some of their Sang Som whiskey and a can of coke and you've got yourself a drink!
