Only time I've ever used 'em was on two occasions. Once, before I went on a crazy run with some friends...
Right after eating a ridiculous Cracker Barrel breakfast. Yeah, those two don't really mix. It was a bad combination, I had to stop to let it out a few times hehe. The second time was when I was a camp councilor this summer for some crazy kids. Took a couple of Monster lo-cal's to keep me going.

Nope, I`ve never tried them, never want to. I have friends who drink them, and they say the crashes are something that`s not the greatest. I don`t know...they (the drinks) kind of scare me. I`ll rely on coffee instead.

I used them in the past but I've built up such a caffeine tolerance from constantly drinking soda that I don't get too much of a kick anymore. I just drink them for the taste/caffeine addiction I have.

To quote the Irish drinking song "The Wild Rover": no, nay, never.

Never touched one. And don't plan on doing so.

I like to avoid the extra sugar in my diet, so no.

I never drink them, but I think I might buy a few packs of 5 Hour Energy to help me through the rough nights.

Nah. I tried a 5 Hour Energy during Lollapalooza and almost puked. Similar incidents with most other energy drinks. If I need to a pick-me-up of sorts, I tend to go for strong coffee. A few espressos usually does the trick.

I would drink coffee, but my parents are (unfortunately) Mormon, so that's not an option.
EDIT: I did love my lattes at Brown this summer, though.

I <3 coffee. But I don't do energy drinks. There are far too many occurrences of young people dropping dead after drinking one.

Not energy drinks, but powerbars for life.
