I have to admit, I like the taste of Bawls in my mouth. I'll deal with the taste of Monster and Spike Shooter, though. I can't stand Red Bull, though, it's terrible and over-hyped. I'll deal with Spike Tablets, although I'm wary of the pure caffeine pills. As far as regular coffee goes, I'll drink it, but more for the taste than the meager caffeine content. Also, I'd like to try caffeinated jello =D

Usually when you are tired it's your body saying "Fucko get some rest... jerk" and when you trick your brain into thinking it's not tired bad things can result.

That being said, the effects of caffeine itself are debated. Some even say it does more good than harm, although anyone in caffeine withdrawal will clearly say otherwise.

I've tended to make a habit of this in mornings before school o_O As for energy drinks and coffee, I don't like the taste of either. Pop does me justice every time, although you think your body would get used to the caffeine content in them after drinking them a lot o_O

Also, I've gone a while without a lot of caffeine, so my tolerance is back to being pretty low. A large cup of coffee would probably be enough to set me off. Coffee is my poison of choice either way. Caffeine is good for your body in limited doses. Too much and your body goes a bit crazy, the detriments outweighing the benefits. Not only do I like sleep, and therefore won't take so much that I'm going to be up all night, but if I intake caffeine, it tends to throw my sleep pattern off slightly unless I have it really early on in the day, which is not beneficial to my class schedule. Overall, as with most things, caffeine is good in moderation.

Throw off your sleep schedule, get a couple hours of sleep before your class, stay up, do things, meet people! Sleep is for the weak. >.>

It actually helps me concentrate better; get my mind to concentrate on one thing instead of many. I don't know how, but it works lol My most common application of this practice is drinking a pop to get my mind off the fact of I haven't eaten in 8 hours.

The rawr-er Posts: 33 Group: Members Member #22 Joined: Mar 5, 2009 XBL Gamertag PyrooftheShadow Steam ID Pyrorose	lol, usually if I get to the point of bouncing off the walls, it's self-induced, not a caffeine rush. Like if something exciting is coming up, or stuff like that xD

It's not as strong as Spike Energy Shot (what is?), but it's not as rough; even those less acclimated to caffeine should, at most, get slight jitters, but none of the stomach discomfort that sometimes comes with Spike.
