The redbull truck cruises by campus sometimes giving out free drinks. The chicks they hire to drive the thing aren't bad looking, so I can cope with the taste of the stuff for a little while. ------------- ? |

Redbull is the only thing I drink when I'm at work. It really does
help, especially if you have 2 of them. They just make me faster and more accurate, and more sociable with customers. ------------- My name is Geoduck. Password: "dsvbgfnmmngbzvbgnhjkj" Penis was here tom was here |

| meh... any effect is all in people's heads... maybe besides the caffeine just not making you tired. but the thing is... bawls is advertised as a very caffeinated drink when it really isn't... i believe it's the same as a cup of coffee if not less. |

Myeah, i never got into the whole energy drink craze. Ive had one redbull ever, and thats it. Ill stick to coffee too. Dark, no sugar.
The only problem is when i order coffee like that the lady normally will give it to me black. Dark is not the same as black. When will they learn that... ------------- ///AMG What? |

| All you have to do is collect deer urine, add about 400mg of caffeine, and market it as xXHiGhOcTaNeXx, sell it for $3/8oz. can, and the 13-year-olds will come running like a stampede of cattle. |

Energy drinks are all subliminal I think. Most people's bodys can easily burn through the amounts of caffine in them becuase we drink so many colas and coffees. I mean, yeah, if somebody who has never ingested caffine was to chug 5 of them, they may get a buzz. But us, normal people who drink a cup of coffee in the morning and a coke with lunch, its not doing anything for us. Idiots look at the packaging and ads so when they drink one they think ZOMG LOLLERS I GOETS TEH ENEGRY 2 TEH XTREEM! Plus they all suck taste wise. The only one I can tolerate is Monster. -------------

Bawls is decent, only time i ever had one is when i was running with no
sleep for over 24 hours, and I figure i'd give it a shot. It helped me
stay awake, but when that feeling went away, i almost passed out behind
the wheel.

I like Sobe Adrenaline rush, it doesn't really give me a "buzz", but it tastes really good.
I'm trying to find Bawls somewhere... I heard it tastes real good. But I can't find any. -------------

I had a single red bull before most football games. Most the of the rest of the team had 2-6 which is rediculous. Me, being a quiet person, feel i had gotten punched in teh face and i was ready to go.... so in a sense they work for me. ------------- [IMG]http://img299.imageshack.us/img299/6924/willproducsv6.jpg"> |

I noticed that I didn't realy get a ton of energy, more just that it was easier to keep the pace up. (I was riding my bike with some friends at night.) It's not like you drink it and freak out.
And Red Bulls taste like Lollies if you have ever had them.  ------------- It's all a conspiracy. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Edgar+Cayce&btnG=Google+Search - Edgar Cayce >you |

AMP is pretty good. I drink 2 before each tourney. It's not like a "burst" of energy, but the taste wakes me up. Frappicino is also good, but if i drink 3+, i get wired and then in 10 min i have to poop and i fall asleep on the pot. ------------- X |

Sobe no fear tastes great and is the only energy drink to give me any kind of buzz.
I wonder if people know that bawls is not an energy drink... I had a shark before me and some of my female friends went skateing  . I let one have a couple sips and she went crazy, it never did a thing to me. Tasted good tho, had a peppery kick after you drink it but then it goes away.
