New Energy Drink Alert: Venom

Okay, I normally don't make useless and stupid posts like this, but I was walkin' around in my neighborhood grocery store when I saw this metal bottle with a snake eye on a black background with the name "Venom" printed in a font similar to the death metal-esque logos. (You know what I mean, with all the sharp curves and shit.) I thought to myself, hell, why not, so I grabbed a bottle, and on my way back to my car I drink some. That was the moment I became absolutely ADDICTED to this shit!!! If your open to another addiction, try this stuff out! As far as I've seen, it only comes in one flavor so far which is Black Mamba!

Sparks. The ultimate hangover cure.

Because if it doesn't have alcohol, it isn't death metal.

Woah woah woah. You got addicted to a product that attracted you because it looks 'death metal'?

Alcohol and caffeine. Brilliant combination.

Damn. Is that supposed to be advice or something? I'm a terrible terrible influence.

Actually, that's the only way that I could describe the lettering, I got addicted to it because it tasted fucking AWESOME!

I'm interested in how this must taste. My favorite energy drinks are the ones that taste like cough medicine. Redbull and Rockstar.

You'll become addicted too then. I bought it and thought, okay, I'm gonna love this, or hate this. It tastes a lot like rockstar and rockstar juiced combined, the orange juiced flavor, not the purple or red crap.

Yikes. In my late high school, early college days I was drinking two or three Monsters a day. I hated Rockstar and Red Bull because, contrary to Mr. Filth, I can't stand the cough medicine taste. The BF however will chug any energy drink at any time. Oh please let this atrocity not find its way to our podunk city.

Spicy food *is* necessary. I'd take Indian food over just about anything else.
And I require garlic like one requires water. I could not be a vampire.

I had half a Tab energy drink over about 2 hours and ended up with a panic attack and ran out of the cafeteria in the middle of my meal.

I think it probably has something to do with the fact that I hardly ever drink caffeine. Same thing happened to me when I tried flavoured tobacco once. I sat there all tense and very shaky for a long time, despite not having much.

May or may not try Venom. I don't like most energy drinks. Though there are a couple of exceptions. Bawls is one of them. Guarana ftw and all that.

You'll prboably like the purple flavor, the whatever rattler thing, I've only had it once, but it's more like Rockstar juiced.
