There is a big difference in Anhydrous Caffeine and Caffeine Citrate in the way it affects your body. IF you want to take a pill/powder form. I recommend looking into the citrate form if you wish to do this, and as people have said be cautious in the amount you take as it is a stimulant.. The effects people speak of…

Just the tip?

They tested out “gallo,” but the respondents left them hanging.

Instead of a couple of days in Vegas, you can stay home for the weekend with a few bottles of Bacardi 151, Craigslist “casual encounters” open on your browser, and burn a bunch of money in the fireplace.

To be more brief:

Gawd yes yes a thousand times yes. This has always driven me crazy. In fact on this site, in fact, I do not click on stories. I open stories I want to read in a new tab. Its actually faster to scroll through the main page, open 5 or so tabs of the articles I want to read, then tab through to them. When a page loads,…

IME, being an American is hardly exotic or even desirable to most Europeans. I couldn’t order coffee without someone informing me that my country sucks.

hyper-positivity is a HUGE red flag to me. The world is a balance of light/dark, good/bad, etc - if you can’t handle that balance, something’s wrong!

Watch how they treat wait staff, ticket takers etc. If they are genuinely kind to them, they are probably a genuinely kind person all around. The opposite is also likely true.

Presence, being present. I know it is hard for everyone to be present, especially during a date, but I need it.

How they relate to people in our vicinity. If someone says something rude or mocks someone at a nearby table or that we see while walking - it makes me really worry about any future with them. I once went on a date with a girl who was doing, what I could only assume she thought was witty commentary on the people…

Jitters.

Agreed. I tried taking caffeine pills to replace my morning mocha to reduce my calories, and it took me almost a week to realize that my morning queasiness was due to the pills.

For many people, the pure, uncut goodness leads to shakes and jitters. I’m one of those people. I took them occasionally in college or on long road trips, but I’ve stayed away for a few years now. The jolt of being awake wasn’t worth the general uneasy feeling that I associate with too much caffeine.

I take caffeine pills (200mg) only when I am going to the gym. Normal days I only use coffee because the pills gives you a really good kick, thus the jitters.

Taste.

I order lemonade instead of drinking, and have lollipop or gum instead of smoking. If you have no qualms for weed, it is also a better alt to cigarette.

The biggest danger with caffeine pills is overdose. It's almost impossible to OD on coffee or tea (because they're mostly water) but with pills that's a real danger.
