    Well, it might be a way to get drunk real fast, it wouldn't be the best way for me. Each to his own poison/ambrosia-of-delight.

    Jäger is NASTY, hate that licorice garbage. besides if I want to be consuming blood, it'll be from a nice steak or, in this case, a side of venison.

    Svedka or Smirnoff w/ Redbull, or a well-mixed Long Island if I want to get real drunk real fast... or if someone else wants to get me real drunk real fast XD oh ho ho ho talk about fun nights

    The best compliment I can give Jagermeister is to say that it`s an "acquired taste." Apple Strudel and Wiener Schnitzel are by far my favourite Austrian exports, though don`t do much for your piloting skills. Red Bull and Vodka causes something apocalyptic to happen in my digestive system. Red Bull on its own is glorious stuff, turbo-vimto

    So would you say that Red Bull and Glocks are Austria's greatest achievements?

    [Other than Mozart, of course.]

    Glock? You mean the weapons brand? Well, financially that might be a big thing, but I wouldn't call it an achievement...

    I guess you could count Red Bull, seeing how involved it is in sports and other events around the globe - certainly built up a reputation.

    Red Bull is a bit of a financial achievement as well.

    [don't forget your sense of humour just because firearms are mentioned ]

    Sorry to sound stuck-up here. I just don't see anything favorable in selling guns.
    That said, Steyr is a way more achieving weapons manufacturer than Glock, afaik. We still built the lightest fully automatic MP in the world

    They will be sold and bought and used as long as humans are what they are. Legal or illegal, firearms will exist. I have strong reasons in just the last 8 weeks to need them for self-defense. Last Friday night there was a shooting just one block from my house involving a fully automatic weapon, probably illegally obtained.

    But, um... back to Red Bull and its benefits to the human race. A much more pleasant subject. If you like the taste.

    And I certainly do! Heck I would drink 10 cans a day if it didn't kill me! (yes, I'm sure it would)

    nothing wrong with guns

    local pride:

    even if the brand has waned over the years.

    Drinking red bull can improve your aim and reaction speed

    Well, yeah.

    There are around 500,000 million firearms in worldwide circulation today. That's one firearm for every 12 people on the planet. Question is, how do we arm the other eleven?

    When I was at my last place to finish my 10 months worth of charges.
    At broad river correctional pen, the STOP program, inside Maultrie dorm, a side.

    I met a friend named winslow. Dude was from the ChuckTown ( Charleston area of South Carolina ). And lived
    In the room numbered.

    2097!
    Hmmm
    Funny

    Chucktown as he was nicknamed, including others from that same area. Was a buddy of many, a whole lot of talkin. And when we did these bible study and morning prayer classes. He go on about his story and explainations of things to all in the room.

    I turned my drinking of coffee into the same way I drink RedBull.
    Fourteen cans-ten or more or least tall cups. Of black caffenated and non caffenated coffee.

    I'm fore real on the drinks. When I first played XL. I turned a. One four case of the stuff. Into three and five four cases of the Bull.

    It was a strange thing to me.
    A guy who lived in the same room numbered 2097, with the race game I play, with so much Gojo. I'm guppling up as much stuff, I do on the 2097, listening and attentively hearing his talk.
    Before putting the breaks on him. After downing a six or seventh cup of java.

    Well he's out and so am I.
    A salute, to chucktown, aka 2097.
    You brought out my side.
    That shows I live with NOS in my blood stream and a Electrical Turbine engine. For a brain.

    Yes it has. and there's more, I've almost got a physical dependance to that drink. the brand started with wipeout and few extreme sports sponsorization and now the RB logo it's nearly everywhere, one of the best marketing strategies ever (maybe just massive)
    Nobody can prove if it works in improving reactions (but it's banned in France just as dopamine) but it's becoming the coffee of the '00

    Except coffee isn't putting their logo on everything and anything they get involved in.

    blix; play any wipeout for about an hour straight, then drink a redbull and play for anohter hour or so and you'll notice the difference.

    Defiantly...I remember buying my first can of Red Bull after playing 2097.
    Now years later the only time I drink it is with Vodka!
    The perfect drink for a night out of clubbing!

    WipeOut XL was the first time I saw RedBull, but I've never drank it.

    I don't think I want to.
