Do people still use caffeine pills? Genuinely curious.

You're mom does when I paid to fuck her last night.

Seriously though? Coffee is too expensive and I have to get up everyday at 230am. Will these work

>>21421101
>230am

What the hell do you even do for work?

>>21421106
fuckin your Mom in the ASS!

>>21421109
DADDY PLS

I'm not your daddy, I'm Tyrone the big buck nigger that fucks assholes. You wanna be next big boi?

PLS

>>21421066 (OP)
I'd sooner swallow those than some fucking energy beverage some of you pretend you enjoy the taste of.

>>21421066 (OP)
Yes. I wake up and leave the door for work within 30 minutes. Taking a caffeine pill is simple and provides the same effect of coffee.
Its hilarious ameritards will have pharmaceutical AIDS medicine ads on their TV yet freak out over caffeine pills

Gay niggers are worshipped like gods by White people in America for some reason. White people need to go extinct

he he I'm supposed to be working rn

Food? Cooking?
Oh, wait, we already allow ethanol- and caffeine-related generals. I guess anything goes...

>>21421066 (OP)
yes, i take these at work so i don't have to stand in the break room and talk to people.

it's cheaper but I prefer getting turnt up on g fuel in the morning

I use these when working night shifts because I don't like sugary drinks

>>21421423
why don't you just drink coffee with no sugar

>>21421463
I have a long commute so I prefer to nap, get to work, take a tablet and then maybe another on the drive home
The only coffee I drink are espressos and my work doesn't have an espresso machine sadly

>>21421101
yes but they typically don't last as long as energy drinks. some of the extra ingredients in energy drinks make the stimulant effect last longer. pure caffeine pills will make you into a crackhead for an hour and then drop you. The best thing is to take a single hit of a 5% nicotine vape right when you wake up and you'll be instantly awake and alert. Dont vape all day, just immediately 1 hit when you first wake up.

t. I'm 30 and Ive never had a job working less than 12 hour shifts

>>21421533
>taking stimulants to survive your 12h dead end job
lmaoing @ ur life rn

I used to when I was in college. A lot. I quit when I realized I hadn't shat in a week then I started shitting blood one day. Coffee is good for you.

Fuck off back to utah mormon control freak.

I've never been to Utah and I'm not a Mormon. If I was, I'd be a lot nicer to you degenerates than you deserve.

>>21421568
idk I dropped out of high school and I make 70k it's probably the best im gonna do. I lmao at my life too though. what a waste

Did you faggots never watch that very special episode of saved by the bell? Caffeine pills ruin lives.

>>21421711
>Did you faggots never watch that very special episode of saved by the bell?
No, I had friends growing up.

>>21421066 (OP)
Stick to celcius and zyn. I'm a corrections office and work 16 hour days back to back all the time, this is the best combo. Celcius doesn't have any sugar and only like 10 calories, I can easily sneak zyn in and use it unlike a vape.

>>21421722
lol what went so wrong in your life that you can't even be a cop you have to be a prison guard?

>>21421533
Guarana is basically time-release caffeine that lasts longer and doesn't have a sudden crash.
IIRC Source Naturals brand is really cheap. One big horsepill lasts like 8 hours.

i like coffee but some days i'm too tired to make coffee
on those days, caffeine pills do the job

Just go on amazon and search caffeine gum. There's hundreds of brands now.

>>21421066 (OP)
Basically just legal meth.

>>21421126
Nobody is pretending
For me it's strawberry c4 preworkout
The flavor is not that interesting, it's just a sodium sugarfree additive that tastes similar to a translucent watermelon(?) chuppa chup,
But the addition of citruline and beta alinine makes it mildly sour and tingly to the tongue
So I don't know about flavour, but it certainly has an expericne to be have, even if it's probably giving me kidney aids and full of dogshit preservatives
I like espresso as well but different situations call different solutions

If you have an espresso machine at home, I suggest melting a small amount of peanut butter in a cup, along with some dark chocolate >70%
Then pour the espresso into it and stir until mixed

It's quite good

>>21422405

people use crazy shit like bath salts and fentanyl, so you can assume that somewhere out there some retard is also taking caffeine pills

>>21421101
>Coffee is too expensive
Coffee is cheaper than those pills, retard. Buy the value brand can from the Dollar Store if you're a poverty-fag.

>>21422456
you can get bulk caffeine pills for 3 cents a pill. unless you can find me a 1.5 cent cup of coffee.

>>21421066 (OP)
>Do people still use caffeine pills?
yes, a take half of one every morning in lew of coffee.

I know a guy who takes them on ultramarathons. He eats salt tablets too.

>>21422634
lieu

>>21421066 (OP)
Yep. They're cheap.

>>21421066 (OP)
I buy Uptime in bulk online, they're much better than pills with just caffeine alone.

Each pill contains 66mg caffeine, plus a bunch of other vitamins and herbal supplements. They work like a charm, I keep a few in a film canister in my pocket to take midway thru the day.

>>21421066 (OP)
When I was in college I used to do all nighters where I would just play diablo 2 and then go to work in the morning. Half the time I couldn't even remember how I got there I was legit falling asleep constantly driving to work. I would have to slap myself over and over and sometimes that didn't even work. Got a wake up call when I fell asleep rolling into an exit and bumped into the car in front of me. Thankfully I had my foot on the break as I dozed off and barely touched it and they didn't even make a big deal out of it.
Don't skip out on sleep, it's more important than food.

>>21421635
>degenerates
is this the next thing? rightoids weren't content to ban vaccines and dirty pictures, now they want to ban fucking coffee? and we now have palantir keeping a watchful eye so this is now the future, forever

Do not fuck with that stuff, it will cause an irreversibly enlarged prostate and then you have to take erection pills forever unless you want to be constantly pissing your pants. It sounds funny until you've got a raging boner at completely inappropriate times

>>21422539
If 1.5 cents for a cup of coffee is breaking your bank you are in dire straits and need to rethink your life.

To answer OP, no, because why the fuck would you take a pill when you can get the drug in the delicious form of coffee, tea or chocolate?

>>21423324
I was implying that you cannot make a cup of strong coffee for 1.5 cents, and caffeine pills will always be cheaper than coffee.

>>21423329
I know, I'm pointing out that if such a tiny degree of money is impactful to you then you are in a really, REALLY bad place financially.

>>21422539
I prefer coffee but keep some store brand caffeine pills in my emergency kit. Circumstances, folks.

>>21423347
cheap coffee is gross
decent coffee is nearly $1/oz
which is < 2 cups brewed, about 250mg caffeine

so caffeine pills are <10% the cost, no including electricity brewing and your gay filtered water cost and time spent brewing and sniffing grounds, etc

it's also insanely practical. frankly people drinking coffee just for caffeine are the retards

>>21423271
>>21423293
haha good to know. i had a sheet a day habit on top of full sugar energy drinks and coffee to get me through 75 hour work weeks and finally stopped when i smoked meth for the first time and realized i had been tweaking all along. i stopped using stimulants at all and just started eating and sleeping for energy. thank god i wasnt addicted, shit makes you retarded, paranoid and depressed. my transient ischemic episodes, tmj and heart palpitations cleared up shortly after as well. i still keep a box and have had the same box for the past two years, they're great in a pinch if youre traveling across timezones, are prone to altitude sickness, if you need to do labor at high altitudes (shits a miracle drug for that) work a high vis or healthcare job, or have seasonal allergies. i got depressed last winter and took one and went for a long ass run, felt excellent after. don't forget to remind your stimulant habituated peers theyre fucking tweakers though, the right combination of caffeine, sleep deprivation and depression is no different that smoking straight meth, get your shit together

>>21422689
What's uptime?

>>21423408
I like even cheap coffee, but it's worth it to me to shell out for the gourmet shit. A cup of mud to me is far more enjoyable than a pill.
>$1/oz
>worrying about the utility cost of using a coffee machine and the potable water needed for it
Anon, for the love of God, either get a job or review your expenses.

>>21423408
If someone is willing to pop caffeine pills I don't think they're gonna turn up their nose at some instant coffee

I prefer my coffee crunchy.

>>21423420
it's a tiny pill you just swallow that's just caffeine
i really don't see the aversion

i can swallow 5 different vit pills without water so maybe i'm biased but damn

>>21423420
>pop caffeine pills
Christ you're a caricature. Do you also have an aversion to popping an ibuprufen or taking nyquil?

the CAFFEIENE PILL is a drug yes, same one found in your estrogenic coffee.

>>21423418
See how you keep moving the goalposts? It was about costs and now your just making vague bullshit. You're a pussy. Just say youre scared of "caffeine pills"

>>21423410
Nm what's up with u, time? ;)

6:20 alarm: pop caffeine pill, piss, go back to sleep
6:45 alarm: get ready and out the door in 15 minutes
also I keep a small container of dozens of them in my truck for convenience whenever
don't have to pull over and buy a hot coffee in florida or a 3$ energy drink
serious coping

>>21421066 (OP)
They make caffeine chocolates now, keep an entire tub of those fuckers at my desk.

>>21421066 (OP)
Use this shit at work
It really works

>>21423950
what sort of work do you do where this is necessary

>>21423487
NTA but ibuprofen actively damages your testicles and ability to produce sperm and can render you infertile
Caffeine also has estrogenic effects. I don't really know why you think it wouldn't. Did you just see "Coffee estrogenic!" and just stop looking into it right then and there? Fucking retard.
>Caffeine exposure can affect estrogen levels by diverting CYP1A2 from its primary role in metabolizing estrogens, leading to estrogen dominance and hormonal imbalances.

>>21424082
Yes anon, you're a little pussy faggot because you drank coffee one time. This makes so much sense and is totally not a retarded thing to say.

>watch anime
>get urge to crossdress and suck cocks

so it's advil and coffee now? thought it was seed oils and titanium dioxide last month

>>21424107
We need to ban advil and other OTC painkillers, BAN THEM NOW THINK OF THE CHILDREN

>>21424102
That's...the opposite of what I'm saying, anon. What the fuck? Do you not know how to read English?
I was pointing out that in the post I was responding to, he's trying to make out coffee as making you a faggot, unlike caffeine pills.

I'm pointing out that both have estrogenic properties (which isn't some feminizing nu-sci nonsense, but does have hormonal effects on an objective level)

I'm LITERALLY FUCKING AGREEING WITH YOU, you STUPID FUCKING MORON

>>21421068
She kept falling asleep on ya?

>>21421066 (OP)
I used these once to test of caffeine really affects me the same as other people and came back unsure if it was doing anything but giving me a bit of heartburn. I might be a mutant so this might not be too helpful for you.

>>21422642
viola!

>>21421066 (OP)
I've tried coffein pills, but unfortunately they don't help me stay focused, they just make it impossible to fall asleep and fuck up my sleep schedule.

>>21421066 (OP)
I just snort meth

They're alright. Coffee and energy drinks do the job better without as much dry mouth if you're in the biz of talking a lot, but caff pills do fine otherwise.

>>21421722
>muh sugar
Artificial sweeteners are worse than sugar.

when I worked as a night guard in a warehouse with a literal fucking jungle as backyard I used to put one of those in my special mix of half coffee half coca cola, I didn't want anything to jump on me, there were even jaguars roaming around and I had no gun, not like a gun can stop a jaguar but still pretty fucked up. I'm sure one day my liver will remind me of those good old times.

>take 150mg pro plus (a UK caffeine tablet brand)

>>21421722
Prisons should be abolished. Every offender in there is actually better off dead if you consider a bad quality of life is worse than no life. Prisons are leftist institutions that breed more crime. Put criminals together and what do you have? Concentrated criminality.

>>21423100
>now they want to ban fucking coffee?
No, they can't even enforce Federal Law regarding cannabis, and even ran in the last election on making it fully legal.

>>21423100
>ban vaccines
Translation: they pulled the injectable form of the bioweapon off of the market after it was deployed into the majority of the population. Don't forget who authorized its development, and who he said he was "on the same page" with during that time.

I keep a full thing of NoDoz in my locker for emergency only. I dont like to utilize caffiene unless i really need it. Then it can really help get the job done.
this is coming from a former meth addict

Okay, now THIS thread genuinely has nothing to do with food and cooking. Carbon is in my food, but you don't see anyone making threads about how much they love eating carbon.
That being said, I find iron pills work much better than caffeine pills.

nta but 12.5 hour shifts in a factory. every single person where I work uses caffeine, nicotine, or both. I've tried the job without stimulants and it's inhuman. I doubt regular people that don't do slave work actually need this shit though.

>>21427982
>THIS thread genuinely has nothing to do with food and cooking
No thread about any drug---ethanol, caffeine, or nicotine included---have anything to do with cooking, despite the cope from addicts that their consumption imports a kind of "flavor." By that logic, we may as well dedicate threads to cannabis "edibles" and narcotics infused into lollipops...

>Marijuana is still federally illegal in the US
If only all fifty states acted like it, and the alleged "tough on crime" President treated defying that Federal Law like the crime it is... in his first term.
>>21428569
"Karen" who?

>>21428661
they're still selectively enforcing the law. like that norwegian kid who had a meme picture of vance on his phone and they got him to confess to trying weed in germany once and he's now banned for life from traveling to the US

>>21428666
>they got him to confess to trying weed in germany once and he's now banned for life from traveling to the US
Good. I hope the same goes for people traveling within the US. I also want the 21st amendment to be repealed, though, so I won't hold my breath...

>>21428666
Like europe doesnt selectively enforce lol

Go buy some weed in christiania
Then buy some outside it

>>21428682
>christiania
How could any Government allow something like that to exist for as long as that has? At least CHAZ was taken care of within a month...

>>21428682
interesting, so buying weed in christiania once, smoking it there, and leaving means you're barred from the schengen zone forever?

>>21428843
Of course not; Europe as a continent was lost to oikophobia and eleutheromania a long time ago, so when a country like Denmark treats an enclave within its borders like a quirky shopping district for meth, the rest of its neighbors suicidally oblige.

Mom gave me her bottle of caffenaited pills
i drank two down with some office water and was jittery well after my shift
no thank you, mom or caffeinated pills

>>21425309
yeah its straight ephedrine. if you take it irresponsibly like a tweaker, you'll get tweaker symptoms like that thing where your heart starts beating erratically and you cough or going blind in one eye until you eat some sugar. if you take it as a medication, it relieves athsma and allergy symtoms and makes you feel fantastic. id recommend trying it if youre not an addict, its a handy drug to have access to.

>>21429873
one is like two cups of coffee if you sucked them down back to back in like 20 seconds
so take one not two

yes i do but i prefer energy drinks anway

>>21429791
I accept your concession

Yeah they work. No joy in them.

>>21431002
>my drug consumption method is better than YOUR drug consumption method!
>>21431754
There's no joy in abusing psychoactive chemicals, yes.

I got some, and they don't work as well for me as coffee does even if i take a pill that is 100mg which is more than in a cup of coffee, even if i take 2 pills.
Same with energy drinks, nothing gets me going the same way as coffee does. I know caffeine is caffeine and it shouldn't make a difference, but it does with me

>>21421066 (OP)
Yep
Easy to dose and low dose
