I haven't bought a red bull with my knowledge in a decade, just realized that. I've literally thrown full ones away because I didn't want them. That's not water the fuck.

Hello, I'm one of those men.

See, unlike the skinhead untouchables who inhabit this site, I grew up and became a normal human being with healthy relationships and a good career.

I don't have a problem with gay people.
I don't have a problem with brown people.
I don't have a problem with Muslims.
I don't have a problem with Jews.
I kinda sorta respect the holyfuckinghell out of modern women.

In other words, I'm not a pea brained toddler repeating history as farce with an orange fucktard who puts children into LITERAL concentration camps.

I'm not pissing my pants scared at the idea of women having more voices, more votes, and - GASP - more control over worldly affairs.

I'm not cucked to the cruel, nonsensical, evil ideas cooked up by shitty white men a hundred fucking years ago, or the shitty sexist morals all but beaten into us by our shitty fucking forefathers.

I'm free of toxic masculinity. Fuck yes, you will be hearing that phrase a whole fucking lot over the next ten years, and it will become law.

So suck my asshole, you fucking cowards. Go real deep and suck like I know you secretly want to.

Fascism is so fucking dead after 2020 you won't even be able to smell its oozing corpse.

Your world is thrashing around on its deathbed as we speak.

It's gone for fucking forever as soon as the rotten Cheetoh is gone.

Here, have a look inside my crystal ball.

I see a whole fucking lot of bold, pissed off, beautiful women tap dancing on your skull for the HELL you inflicted on them the past four years.

And men like me will be right there at their sides just laughing. Mocking. Drowning you in heaps upon heaps of your own shitty shit.

Pretty much every other energy drink includes artificial sweeteners like sucralose or ace k in them, which I can't stand the taste of. Red Bull just uses sugar, so I stick to it. Anyone know any other energy brand that only uses sugar.

It looks "classy" so women buy it. The high price is an extra for them, they love spending bux on useless stuff. You have also to account that Red Bull is the energy drink used everywhere for alcohol mixing.
>>17973895
>You think they’d lower the price a little bit too move product but I guess it’s mostly Jew economics keeping them afloat.
At this point they probably get more money from motorsports than the drink itself. I'm starting to think the situation has reverted and now the drink promotes their sports efforts.

Convenience as a caffeine source versus coffee, cool-factor (branding), and addictiveness. The chemically taste is pretty good too, ngl, and I say this as someone who doesn't consume a lot of junk food.

What flavor of Monster tastes the closest to original Red Bull? I like the sweetness of the latter but it's so fucking overpriced. I can buy a can of Monster that's nearly twice the size of a Red Bull can for the same amount of money.
