[QUOTE=Hullu V3;35673510]What the?
I RARELY drink any ED, but when I do, I usually blend them with Jägermeister and when I do that, I can easily take 2 - 4 0,5L energy drinks in a night.
Still kicking and shit.[/QUOTE]
Those premature ventricular contactions you are feeling aren't good.
[QUOTE=Sanius;35673565]you should probably stop[/QUOTE]
Nah, it's not like I do it every night. Just once in a month or so.
And it's not like I've never had caffeine before. Every morning drink a hefty cup of coffee.
[QUOTE=lavacano;35673468]That amount is probably even less because of what's in it.
I limit myself to one per day under normal circumstances. If abnormal circumstances kick in (kept up all night because my parents* got too drunk and started fighting was the most recent risk, though there was also having to manage all three basketball games once or twice in my freshman year) then I'll slam down another one. The reason I keep such a limit on it though is because energy drinks have such a high potency - if a man who's new to energy drinks (or hasn't had any in a long time) drinks two in one day, then he's at a high risk of having one of his organs just shut down. Even if he can slam down three or four Cokes and get little more than a sugar rush.[/QUOTE]
You must be incredibly intolerant to sugars or caffeine then. energy drinks aren't anything but soda with B vitamins in it now, nothing like they used to be when they actually served a purpose. I know people that drink them like water and even when I have a film project I can drink up to 5 or 6 monsters/amps/red bulls during the day
[QUOTE=KabsIsBack;35668699]It's funny because the same thing can essentially happen with water.[/QUOTE]
Drinking too much water can give you a heart attack from all that caffeine and sugar? Did not know.
[QUOTE=The Aussie;35669540]Exessive water consumption can lead to brain swelling and death. Made famous by the case of two girls dying after they ingested large amouts of water while under the influence of Ecstacy. It was a media shit-storm untill it was reported they died from a water overdose. Media didn't say anything of course, they just stopped reporting.

I guess you could drink so much your stomach ruptured?[/QUOTE]
We should ban water!
Phew, good thing I drink PEPSI instead. Man, I'm tellin ya! Dat cola be bad fo' ya! Couch done told ya!
God dammit now I'm thirsty
[QUOTE=Sgt Doom;35670360]Err, 1.4 is a very very strong acid. Neutral is 7, so did you means something closer to that?[/QUOTE]
yeah I did, my mind was tired and I forgot that neutral is 7, not 0.7. Coke sits at about 4.2 in terms of acidity. My bad.

Yeah. Shoot people in moderation and they'll be fine.
[QUOTE=Sanius;35672680]why do people keep posting this as if the only alternative to drinking massive amounts of soda is drinking massive amounts of water[/QUOTE]
What I meant was that if even 2 gallons of water can do some damage, 2 gallons of soda sure would.
How the hell does someone not realise drinking that much will kill them?
[QUOTE=Leaf Runner;35667637]"It was the gun's bullet projectile being launched down the barrel by the explosive pressure that killed him, don't go blaming the man holding the gun over this!"
that's pretty much your logic. Coca-cola is to blame. Also, High Fructose Corn Syrup is addictive as fuck. ([url]http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21623683[/url])
The women became addicted to coca-cola because the pleasure caused by satisfying her high fructose corn syrup addiction was associated with the taste and feel of coca-cola, similar to how nicotine addicts prefer one brand of cigarettes.
Coca-cola has plenty of dangerous ingredients, such as aspartamine (a Monsanto-manufactured carcinogenic toxin) not to mention the dangerous levels of sugar.[/QUOTE]
You're logic is severely flawed to the point that I think my brain actually hurts.
You don't choose to get shot. You choose to drink Coca-Cola. I drank Coke. I'm not drinking 2 Gallons a day. Addictive? No, not really.
Supersize Me has this complete bullshit notion going around that McDonalds "forces" people to eat their food mentally. Bullshit. I can hang out in McDonalds and nobody will force me to eat their food, I can go to McDonalds with my friends, they grab a burger, and then I grab something else to eat that's healthier from elsewhere.
Nobody forces you to go to McDonalds, hell, in high school, my friends and I ate more sushi than we did McDonalds, and they were both right beside each other.

Are you retarded? Of course that's not what he meant! He meant that drinking too much water can kill you. It's called Hyponatremia, look it up.
I have no idea how people get addicted to certain foods/drinks. I'm aware some have addicting ingrediants but I get bored of food I would normally love if I have it too often.
[QUOTE=Parakon;35677561]but I get bored of food I would normally love if I have it too often.[/QUOTE]
That would prevent impulsive addiction, but not compulsive.
It seems to prevent me from getting to the stage where I feel the need to have one then, I bought a case of pepsi recently and was drinking 2 a day until I stopped because coffee is better imo. I'd say i'm addicted to coffee/caffeine but I still only have 2 cups a day because there's self control.
Well I guess you can say
*puts on sunglasses*
She was a coke addict
yeah
[highlight](User was banned for this post ("Pun." - Seiteki))[/highlight]
I used to drink diet coke a bunch, but recently i have winged off of it and noticed that it kinda is an addiction if you have it for so long, but after a week i felt normal and got over it. To me diet coke is a fuck ton more addicting than regular coke. But im not saying ban coke im saying it is a little addictive.

Her addiction was caused by caffeine, not taste. She was addicted to nicotine as well, another stimulant. Every soda can be this dangerous, not just Coke. It's up to the user to recognize when you're forming an unhealthy addiction.
Where in that article does it even mention corn syrup as being addictive? All I see is that it can cause cancer.

I know this is late but you're an idiot, NZ coke uses cane sugar instead of corn syrup.
Do your research next time.
How many gallons of water did that Mom drink to win her child a Wii from that radio station (which she then died from)?
One word: coke. Makes me laugh a little, because of drugs. Lollies and soft drinks are like drugs. But I still drink and eat them anyway.
I only have one coca cola, I don't overuse it. Just use for a energy boost.

if you need an energy boost drink water. you're probably dehydrated anyway
you sound like a passive agressive mother
I basically am
Whatever, all the cool kids drink water anyway.
Seems as though Coke as killed more people than weed.
My home town! Wooo!

I can't find any references to an actual amount (although the Daily Mail claims 7 litres), but there's other cases where people have drunk 4 litres within a few hours and died, or people drinking 8 litres a day for a few days and barely surviving, etc.
[QUOTE=Sanius;35680116]if you need an energy boost drink water. you're probably dehydrated anyway[/QUOTE]
Let's all be bland as all hell and drink only water, eat only what's needed, and not engage in any recreational activities.
