aggienaut | 30 in 30 III - 7 - Experimenting With Controlling Substances

A year ago today I extensively experimented with controlling substances for the sake of 30 in 30. Well I've experienced a lot of bullshit since then, so I thought I'd update you all on that. Also I've been spending 20 hours a day deliriously working on history papers, researching people's annals -- so I don't have time to make 30 in 30 videos or the sanity to do the alchemy necessary to create blogging gold.

Experimentation Redux
Anyway, so yeah last year on this date I did a thorough review of 15 different types of energy drink. This is a sequel to that.
AMP - Amp, the Mountain Dew energy drink, is new since last year. It actually tastes like mountain dew on steroids.. in a good way. Unfortunately they don't sell it in four packs like the other drinks, otherwise I'd stock up. )=
Kabbalah - Kabbalah has come and gone in the intervening year. All of a sudden it was everywhere, and just as quickly it completely disappeared. It was so good, it founded a religion! But yeah I really liked it despite the fact that it was probably part of some creepy religious conspiracy headed by Madonna.
Monster "Juice" - And other forms of "juice" as well. I don't get it. I tried it and it was just.. I dunno. It tasted like an energy drink plus weird.
No Fear Gold - Sobe decided to try to harness the power of "blogging gold" by recreating the chemicals in a bloggists body during such moments of blogging glory. What they discovered was alarming and they promptly destroyed their research and mixed some chemicals together at random. I don't know what specifically they're going for with No Fear Gold, but its a different flavour than normal red can No Fear and I actually kind of like it. Plus both No Fear flavours are currently at $5.99 a four-pack while everything else is at $6.99 and I'm not one to argue with a dollar.
Other Developments: Most energy drinks used to be $1.99 a year ago but now they've risen to $2.19. Forget war for oil (which isn't even keeping the price down), we need to invade someone to keep the price of energy drinks down! Also Red Bull is still a ripoff, and the No Fear drinks finally realized that no one thought they were worth 50 cents more than everything else and actually lowered their prices to below average.

Bonus Question
   Three Years Ago I posed the following ~~hypothetical~~ question:
The Question: What would YOU do if you were sleeping with a russian, but when you woke up they were compeletely gone, like in those movies, only, its THEIR bed??
   And got the following responses:

[11:12:36] shid: uhh, go: hmmm
[11:12:48] shid: then try and scavenge some food from the kitchen
[11:12:53] shid: like ramen or something
[11:13:04] shid: or perhaps a danish

[11:45:46] RunModGirlRun: well, first of all, it would be a russian man
[11:46:01] RunModGirlRun: and second, I would check to see if I was tied up
[11:46:17] RunModGirlRun: third, I would wonder how he cut himself free
[11:47:25] RunModGirlRun: and maybe then, I would raid his refrigerator. and take a shower.

[16:14:00] willnotheal: Well, if I woke up in a Russian bed and my mistress had disappeared, then I would ask myself where the hell she went. I would look to my left (where she was sleeping), just to make sure she really was gone and that I wasn't still drunk from the jello shots the night before. Then I would turn to other hot Russian girl on my right and have mad sex with her until the other one showed up. Then I'd have sex with her. And then with both of them. And just to top it off...I'd have sex with them again.¹

   Well its three years later and its STILL happening to people -- just the other day it happened to Chris Bunch (though it appears likely he only THOUGHT he fell asleep next to a Russian)-- so what would you do?

   Entry of the Day: Okay otimus' entry today was actually pretty funny, though apparently he has way way too much time on his hands -- 30 in 30 - The Game

Meanwhile in the Real World
   There was an epic battle on the quad on campus today, which in accordance with tradition I completely missed out on. (Now in video!!!) Yeah thats how we roll at Davis.

SaUcY mCsAuCe!!!

lyric: i would cry...and then i would come downstairs and get in bed with her anyway...

I like any kind of energy drink with the word "Juice" factored in because apparently "Juice" is code for "doesn't taste like you're being kicked in the face" and "won't leave a sugary-tang aftertaste in your mouth for the next hour."

I haven't directly cross-compared No Fear and No Fear Gold in the same sitting, though I don't doubt the gold version is superior, and in fact, golder. I dare you to try the limited edition Superman-branded Sobe energy drink, which is one of the most absolutely vile things I have ever tasted.

Hmm I remember thinking about trying it once, but it was either more expensive than other energy drinks, or the one I'd picked up was sugar free or something similarly heretical.

But I accept you challenge, and shall boldly investigate.

Okay so I actually tried the superman drink the other day.

And holy shit. Just when I thought things couldn't get more sugary....

Its like liquad cotton candy or something. d=

I sleep with a Russian every night, and every morning the asshole is still there.

Hmm. Tell the Russian to sleep with someone else!

Energy drinks are best used to clean the toilet bowl.

Hrm.
"The stream '30in30thegame.wmv' uses an unsupported codec: Video Codec: MS WMV 9 (win32) (WMV3)"

Somebody needs to stop using shoddy codecs :-/

Wow my computer actually played something that didn't work well. Usually my computer claims not to be able to play something if it seems even the slightest bit unusual, but it played this.

Its hosted from some crazy third world server or something.

WMP9 is the codec for "Window's Media Player 9". Which is evil and corrupt (tm).
DivX would be better :(

I didn't read this post :-( it seems like you did this before! However. That icons AMAZING. Is that cat holding you hostage and making you drive to his get away helicopter? You look calm for a hostage.

I missed the epic quad battle too! I was actually going to participate in it as last hurrah. Oh well, I was probably giving a horrible presentation on cats at the time.

I just noticed the picture of me on your laptop, was that there before? Creepy.

Yeah it wasn't there at first but I added it as an afterthoguht shortly after the original posting. You can compare the original picture (& entry) from last year with this year's side by side with this link

What do you think of this Vault stuff? The commercial with the scarecrow is rather hilarious, but what of its merrits as an energy drink?

Man I haven't tried that one either.. these days I've only been trying new things if they were cheaper than everytihng else. Obviously I need to do more research.

Anyway, you need to answer the question: IF you were sleeping with a Russian girl, and you woke up in her bed in the morning and she was mysteriously gone, what would you do?

Get up, put some pants on, and go to the living room to eat the breakfast that she got out of bed to make for me

(deleted comment)

Hey, the question was hypothetical and I gave a hypothetical answer, no where in there did it state I was referring to anyone specific. (hence the all caps IF at the beginning of the question)
