Do any of you like to OD on caffeine?

I like to get so juiced up on coffee that my synapses short circuit so I can out-run my hyperactive brain.

I drink entirely too much coffee and tea. I consume between 10 and 20 cups per day, with 14 being my average intake. I think it's probably my addictive personality but, I do love my caffeine. :wink:

I drink lot of chinese green tea, up to 64oz or more everyday, I may have a Coke Zero a couple of times a week, but if I am driving trucks at night then I get a couple of sugar free Redbulls, its very easy to become sensory deprived while night driving, and wouldn't want to hit an Elk like I did last November

During the week I start the day with half of a 10 cup pot of coffee, go through McDonald's drive-thru and get a large (Supersize!) Coke with whatever food I order, add a 12oz. cup of regular java from the breakroom and, if I haven't passed out by then, one more 12oz and then cut off at noon.

Saturdays a bit less and then nothing on Sundays.

I sleep a lot on Sundays. :coffee:

'Toro Rosso' is one of the rare caffeine sources that I can't stand the taste of, but it indeed has a great rush!!

No, but I've always wanted to get into coffee, as some days I have difficulty staying awake.

I think I miscalculated how much I drink, my mug holds 19oz., which on average I fill up about 4 times a day maybe 6 times on some days so 76oz to 114oz per day
