Alcohol and sugar are typically a recipe for a bad hangover.  I guess binge drinking is usually a recipe for a bad hangover as well.  Oh, and tannins.  You drink too much red wine and you will swear a tiny bomb has went off in your head.  For like 24 hours.

Bought 2 Four Lokos this morning in preparation for when Snyder trots fracking Coffman out there.  Will report back after Coffman has fumbled for the second time.

Is this really any different than red bulls and vodka? Also, does anybody else remember when Budweiser came out with a caffeinated beer?

Yeah, that Bud stuff was horrible.  It was like slightly minty budweiser.

Iirc, Jim Beam came out with a premixed drink in cola.  Don't know what happened to it.

the FDA ordered them to take out the energy stuff.

Had some for the first time last night.  Wasn't terrible, I can see where dumbass college kids would get in trouble with it.

Yes.  Keeping it legal through the Holiday break was a stroke of genius.

Yeah.  It was during the weekend update, which is pretty much always worth a hulu.

True story - happened to be standing out front at work Friday afternoon and caught the tail-end of a police chase.  Dude about flipped his crappy Safari van, had guns drawn on him, etc.  The driver did a nosedive into the pavement during the field sobriety test and got the handcuffs promptly slapped back on him.  Some Mexican dude in the van got whisked off really quickly - probably is no longer en Los Estados Unidos.

They brought in the drug dog and started searching his shitty ass van and pulled out these big bright colored cans and kept stacking them on the hood.  We had L4LIQ and didn't understand why they were so uptight about energy drinks.  Had some Four Loko for the first time the next day and understood the   :drink:  :drool:  :driving:

P.S. - Checked the police blotter the next day and dude was homeless.  Kinda want to PAK with him.
