>If you think energy drinks from monster to red bull taste bad you're probably brain-dead.
No, that's a super-common opinion (see pic related for details), and even if it weren't it's not like finding a drink bad tasting has anything to do with intelligence.
>i never heard of "jolt Cola" before but it sounds ridiculous.
How does the word "jolt" sound ridiculous? You're not a native English speaker, are you? If you aren't that would explain a lot.
>sounds like you are mostly upset jolt cola died
You can buy Jolt today, so that's a pretty retarded conclusion for you to reach there. Also I prefer regular Coke as far as soda goes. I've had Jolt before but it's not my favorite soda. I only brought it up earlier to point out that energy drinks having lots of caffeine doesn't really explain their popularity since there are better tasting sodas people could drink instead with equivalent amounts of caffeine.
>Also caffeine alone will start losing its effect, but the ginsing blends together so your tolerance to the accelerants stays low enough.
That sounds great except it's made up bullshit.
