2020-01-24 at 2:48 AM UTC in The Metric System is Too Hard to Imagine.Huh? Pigs blood is 100 degrees, humans are 98.
Of course they don't want to base 100 degrees off of human blood. They'd have to make a few sacrifices to make sure their thermometers are correct. -

With energy drinks it is true. With coffee you learn to like the taste because you associate it with caffeine. Your girlfriend is obviously having difficulty acquiring the taste, so she sweetens it up with sugar. The fact that so many people take milk and sugar in their coffee is a testament to it's acquired taste through association with the caffeine high. -

B12 is a vitamin. Not going to do anything if you've already got enough b12.

Only because it's acquired for coffee when your brain begins to associate it with the caffeine high. Sugar is used in energy drinks to drench out the severely bitter taste of caffeine. I'd take a glass of fresh juice over an energy drink anyday. Nothing better than starting your morning with OJ. -

Top of pay seems to be 90 thousand. Take 20 years of saving and no kids to become a millionaire on that.
Any respectable self-employed individual will have a good year where he makes well over 90k. Not uncommon for those self employed to make upwards of 200 thousand by picking and choosing the right jobs and offering the right services in the right areas.
I guess being a restaurant manager is a cozy job for you lazy assfucks who wanna chat on forums all day long instead of actually work. -

Go register a business, and come next time you're supposed to hand in your hours, hand him an invoice. He'll appreciate it. Voids liability on him. Where I live, workers comp insurance isn't manditory for those who are self-employed. Thus if you work for yourself, you can charge him an extra five bucks an hour because now you're doing your own paperwork and you're working uninsured.
Guess that may not work with a big corporation or via union. But if you're working for big corp for pennies where you need your tax back ASAP, fucking quit and go do something useful where you'll learn a skill for life. For unions the only thing they teach you is to throw a temper tantrum when you don't get paid enough instead of actually improving service or product to get paid more.

Rumours the companies are spreading to start hype.
Only scientifically proven ingredients in energy drinks are sugar and caffeine. And yes, there's been a lot of research on them. -

2020-01-24 at 1:12 AM UTC in Favorite energy drinkUgh. Energy drinks are placebo, sugar, and caffeine. It's a status symbol almost. Like an iphone. Or a store bought water bottle.
Take caffeine pills. All the mental alertness of an energy drink without all the crap. You'll be thankful in fifty years when your stomachs not rotting inside out. Same goes for coffee drinkers.
Also, if you die from drinking too many energy drinks, you are weak. Your lineage is weak. You are not worthy of life as a human. -
2020-01-24 at 1:10 AM UTC in I know I shouldn't spend a $120 on this ounce of marijuana...I've been home for a month getting baked from morning to night. Just this last week did I go back to work full time. My tolerance drops like haywire just from not smoking during the day.

Think of it as a forced union. If you wanna be part of the United States of America, somebody's gotta pay for it.
Not like you're free to start your own country anyways.
