Why do people (Mainly scene kids) think energy drinks make them pass out?
Energy drinks got big & got a lot of hype around the same time that myspace got really huge- therefore it was kind of the “in thing” to have your love of energy drinks on your page as everyone was in to drinking this new fad. It’s like the new age pop- you don’t go grab a soda (if you’re not getting wasted), you’re going to grab an energy drink instead. One reason a kid might say “oh I drank so many energy drinks- then passed out” is because many people (not just scene kids) say energy drinks don’t “work for them” anymore. They’ve had sooo many- that they’ve built a tolerance & it no longer makes them feel hyper- so if they’ve been up two straight days partying, it doesn’t matter how many energy drinks they have- they’re still gunna pass out. Kids walking around saying these lines aren’t looking for attention or making up lies- they are, if anything, trying to show off. It’s just like with alcoholics that say- I can do shots all night and not feel a thing! Same difference.
