Keep well away from buckfast
How thick would you have to be, though, to think that a drink on sale in a normal shop contained actual gak?Four Loko was nuts. While by the numbers, it looks like buckfast, (12% ABV, 24oz can, 150mg caff, plus the taurine and guarana) people thought of it as being equivalent to beer, not wine, which meant you had people opening up multiple cans of the stuff an hour. It was also super cheap for the amount of alcohol you were getting.
That was a big thing in the 00s, moral scandals about energy drinks. There was one that made a big fuss in the US called "Cocaine" (it was actually just caffeine and taurine) that got hit both for being marketed as a street drug and for false advertising.

This is why I don't get luka's "death to America" schtick. Shit like this makes it abundantly clear that it's the best country.You'd be surprised about the stuff they actually do sell to truckers at gas stations stores here. All sorts of crazy pills, usually suitable both for driving a truck for ten hours and getting the world's most powerful boner. Dual-use technology. There's a guy who did a writeup once, absolutely legendary journalism, life on the line to review the gas station dick pills:

I Spent a Week Doing Gas Station Drugs, These Are My Findings
We spent a week doing every gas station drug under the sun and ranked each one based on effectiveness. Don't try any of this at home unless someone cool does it first.www.thrillist.com
My favorite though is Stacker 2 Hornet, which makes the incredible graphic design choice to label each pill like a wasp.

sounds awfull ysweetI just mixed some with ginger ale, pretty good.
Would be remiss to not also mention Rhino, which sells pills that allegedly have actions for as long as nine days, with seemingly random numbers in the top right corner. The way the scam works is that they sell ones that are "contaminated" with illegal substances, and then when they get a notice from the government, they change the formula to be something that doesn't work, and come out with a new one with a different number that does. Please note the shiny metal pill and the lenticular effect on the packaging.

stamina = size+timeNo headache!
I get the size and stamina part, but what do they mean by"time"?
most likely some of their buyers don't know what stamina is, so they wanted to make it clearNo headache!

Woops has known me long enough to learn some physics by osmosis.stamina = size+time
Reddit tells me it's illegal in the States apparently, for the same reason as 4Loko. You're claiming to have purchased some in LA? Or you outta the country?Anyone here try Buckfast before? A so-called “tonic wine” made by the Benedictine monks, it’s presumably a fortified wine which tastes somewhat like a cola. Anyway apparently it’s popular within Irish hipster culture.
Oh yeah I’ve been in Ireland for the last week, in Galway now.Reddit tells me it's illegal in the States apparently, for the same reason as 4Loko. You're claiming to have purchased some in LA? Or you outta the country?
