I once won a bike in a punch card raffle for drinking as much monster as I do. No kidney stones yet, just a full immunity to the positive effects of caffeine and the constant threat from my body to never stop drinking them or else my head will implode from withdrawal.

When society collapses, caffeine withdrawal is the first reason I'll want to off myself.

Yeah, good luck finding the energy to that or literally anything else without stimulants.

Or is that just me?

You guys definitely have an addiction

Yes. I started drinking them maybe 20 years ago and the benefits of drinking them, both then and now, far outweigh any negatives. Turns out stimulants are extremely helpful for people with (at the time) undiagnosed ADHD.

nothing like that. It's just, the aroma of tea in the morning is a good way of starting your day. It's so good. try it. I only drink 5 6 mugs of tea a day. so it's not like addiction or anything.
