Survival of the fittest?

Though I am a Christian, Darwinism does have some very convincing arguments. Maybe we should en government regulations on a lot of stuff and let the "weak and stupid" die out.

Threadstarter: That's because you don't know who the orgional #2 is.

From what I have been told and read caffeine in large amounts is supposed to be pretty hard on your liver and kidneys. So over time these drinks could mess you up. Hell I drink them, probably more often than I should and I suppose only time will tell what the effects are going to be. Here lately I have switched to drinking vitamin water energy, it doesn't have as much of the bad stuff in that energy drinks have.

Now as to the whole banning thing I don't see it actually happening. Like already mentioned there are many other things that are readily/easily available that do just as much or more harmful than energy drinks. Example, what about those fat burner energy pills (stackers, mini thins, etc)? Those are available just about every where and can hurt just as bad if not worse you if you abuse them, same as energy drinks.

I know a kid who has at least 1 rockstar a day.

I can't imagine what that must be doing to him.

That doesn't mean its okay to have once a day, and in a lot of cases more than once.

You wanna drink and smoke and **** up your own life, go ahead, just don't bother me. I'll be over here drinking an energy drink, which is apparently worse.
Very true. But I hate how people drink too much energy drinks and brag aboutit. You're proud of doing something thats bad for you? Congrats, you're damaging your body for no good reason.

But in the grand scheme of things energy drinks aren't all that bad.

Its a good idea. In theory. But if we don't inform people on the dangers of the substance at hand then you just let anyone die out, its not exclusive to the weak and stupid.

Besides, the weak and stupid can still be useful.
