For the Calorie-Conscious Caffeine Freak

Seen at a gas station/convenience store:


Now you can be twice as amped and still be calorie-conscious! After all, you wouldn't want to put any junk on your system, now would you?

  1. my first radio interview was with the president of Jolt cola, back in 1987 or so....the deal was it was made with REAL cane sugar....I asked him if there was gonna be a sugar free version, and he kinda gave me this blank stare....it was a joke, dude.

  5. I went through a few months where I drank perhaps four of those a day, all before 1pm. I thought I may have done some mental damage, but it seems that since I stopped drinking them, I've returned to normal.I thought I may have done some mental damage, but it seems that since I stopped drinking them, I've returned to normal.I thought I may have done some mental damage, but it seems that since I stopped drinking them, I've returned to normal.I thought I may have done some mental damage, but it seems that since I stopped drinking them, I've returned to normal.I thought I may have done some mental damage, but it seems that since I stopped drinking them, I've returned to normal.

  6. Some friends used to drink that crap with gin in it. They passed me some at a gig and I promptly returned it with the expert review that it tasted like cough syrup with hell in it. They didn't offer again after that.

  7. Gumbo- I took a photo of the original calorie chunked up junk can and have forgotten to write a post, so I am with you...

    I do think of all the things I might have accomplished when I was younger if I had been on this drug of choice...phew! makes me tired just using brain energy on that one, lol

  8. What would be the point of that? It's like diet soda. Why?

  9. Red Bull is evil! Seriously, every time that my son would drink one, he would get red in the face for hours! If you research the ingredients, you'll see what I mean. Hope you're having fun, Irish!

  10. All those cans need is a 1966 silver face Fender Twin Reverb and a black telecaster... then they'd really be amped.

  11. Hi-lar-ious! And yes, I get this completely. (Red Bull is trash)
