I also have a confession. For the first time in my life I spark noted a book for class and I feel scummy about it.

Seriously?

I didn't have to read half the crappy books they shoved on us in high school English because of that site.

Rant: Rage. Pure and simple.

Do not be surprised if Earth becomes the only source for all future GRB's.

That's how pissed off I am.

Stupid EAxis programming.

Also, stupid Google.

First World? What the heck does this have to do with Mercury?

YOU! It's your fault this crap exists!!

Serves a different purpose to Coke/Sprite, tastes better than hot coffee or tea, is cheaper than iced coffee.

I like Red Bull

Mixing energy drinks (including Red Bull) with vodka is fairly popular here - And vodka with Red Bull is many times worse than pure Red Bull.

it's forbidden for clubs etc to serve it mixed for some reason here...so when you order vodka red bull (or Gummibärli -> Gummy Bear how the drink is usually called here) you get a glass with a shot of vodka in it and a can of red bull :crazy:

I guess because the whole stimulant + depressant in the same drink isn't particularly safe, but if they sell them separately they can technically claim it wasn't their fault.

well, they don't do it voluntarily...it's actually forbidden to sell the two mixed, but yeah probably due to the reason you stated.

You are Thai! You should drink the superior Thai energy drink called Shark (which oddly enough can be found here, imported from Austria).

Someone should post this in the Great Quotes thread!

I think it's because your government has some taste.

My PC is crashing more and more. I don't think I can put off buying a new one any longer.

I'm pretty sure it's because 18-21 year old boys with exceptionally poor effective grasps on consequences of actions tend to mix the two, which masks much of the flavor of alcohol if you to it correctly. Then it's easy to pound large quantities of said beverage very quickly, which isn't super wise with either drink. As they both kick on at the same time the fact that somebody that's getting blindingly drunk is likely to pass out is counterbalanced by the stimulation, so they think they can drink more, and do. It's really nothing special. It's basically the same exact thing as drinking Irish coffee, but more popular with the demographic that's likely to die of binge drinking so it makes for flashy tragic stories which are the stories that tend to garner knee-jerk legislation.
