The real fun of living wisely is that you get to be smug about it.

I never developed a taste for coffee so instead I buy caffeine pills from walgreens but somehow I feel ashamed of myself to admit this to acquaintances

Talk shit, get bzzzt.

I've grown to tolerate coffee, but black tea is almost always better flavoured and lets you drink more without getting wired and anxious. Plus there's herbal "tea" that, while not actually tea, can be a whole lot of different stuff.

Plus you can order "tea earl grey, hot" from a nerd barista and laugh about it.

Goldschlager was the first alcohol I ever drank. We took it out of my friend's dad's freezer, removed all the gold from it to melt into a ball, then drank the rest of it.

I was working overnights for a while and was using caffeine pills to help me adjust. had an elderly pharmacy assistant practically shake me by my shoulders and ask me if I really want to buy these caffeine pills and spent a good five minutes trying to convince me it was dangerous and that I'd have a heart attack. :shobon: not yet pops

drink better coffee. also much like tea it tastes better black, but the lovely varieties most people drink, much like black tea, are only really tolerable creamed and sweetened.

I have no idea, but I did a reduced-price test for what were basically tea bags, but for weed. Each little satchet fit in the vaporizor's chamber perfectly and made clean up really easy.

I never responded to their feedback emails and never bought another one since the markup was like 150$ what you could get in flower.
