Chaotic Coffee Klatch (tea also available)

I live on them, probably shouldn't but been that way for decades....other than when I was pregnant because apparently I consume like 50 times the recommended caffeine. but still alive and doing well lol.
We did a science experiment years ago (yeah, this group of guys again!) where we all went to the deli and bought cans of Jolt Cola (remember it?). We pounded the sodas then ran as fast as we could up five flights of stairs to a pal's top floor apartment. The heart rates in our chests were... interesting.
 
Way way too much sugar, but then he’s a he so it won’t affect him.

Most are sugar free or very little sugar. More sugar free Monster flavors, almost all Bangs I think, most Reigns, half the Rockstars. A lot of the market is for athletes, so yeah, the calories went out the door. all artificial sweetener....yummy lol. Red bull I think is the one that still has more full sugar than sugar free flavors.

The thundering sound of five twenty-something guys pounding up rickety stairs in an old Hoboken building must have been quite amusing for the neighbors LOL
 
I've been procrastinating with the stuff I should have done this evening (papers to take along tomorrow) and instead taken apart my IT-stuff box. A moving box sized one, actually. Even put some of the contents for sale and decided to scrap some.
I understand as I rather DO something rather than shuffle papers or file! I am washing my clothes though. The snow is really coming down. I have to shovel a place for my dog to relieve himself as the snow is up to his belly!

Yuck. The artificial sweeteners make me sick.

An athlete may, however, very well have use for the sugar in some instances.

I've heard others are not a fan, but I dig it. Overall, to energy drinks, their marketing long stopped being towards the people that don't drink them or casually do, and moved to the people who do drink them a lot and try to lure them from their primary brand. When looking at the regular consumer, no calories is a big deal as you can drink more without weight gain, so you drink more, so you buy more, so they profit more, so they make more that draw the most sales. Even a weight lifter wouldn't drink 6 a day at 300 calories each, but will at 5 calories each. It revolves around the thoughts and wants of the people who will buy it a lot, not the people who won't or barely, like most marketing.

if someone made good tasting low calorie chocolate, I bet they could sell that at amazing proportions.
 
No one really drinks energy drinks for the taste, you just find one that you can kind of tolerate and chug the fucker for the effect.. they make chaos more chaosy 🤷
haha, I have grown to like them but yes, that is how it begins. I also like the liquor/energy combos, jagerbombs, bullfrogs, irish trash cans. Yeah when you should have the good sense to go to a corner and pass out, but totally aren't going to is when the chaos really gets kicking lol.
