My wife gets those little energy shots for free so I drink one or two before going to the gym or while I'm at the gym. I usually mix it with water.

Used to, but then they started to mess me up. I don't bother with them anymore.

I drink far too many of these damned things. I'll probably die when I'm 40, or develop diabetes.

Yeah, I stick to the low or no sugar ones though.

Blue Monsters are good and only 2g of sugar or so, Blue Rockstars are great, zero carbs/calories and they taste like pomegranates

People are amazingly gullible. They don't even know what's in these drinks but drink them anyway.

My buddy had an employee who drank 3 or 4 red bulls daily. She ended up in the hospital with some kind of kidney or bladder stones. Not good.

In high school I drank 3-4 red bulls a day. Now (about 8 years later) I don't really drink them at all.
