This product. Liquid caffeine.
Now you see, when you have a Bang... They put 200 milligrams of caffeine in that little can. Sure there’s sugar. That’s awful. It’s five bucks, too. So you get a Pzazz. It's just caffeine. Imagine rubbing crushed up caffeine pills in your gums.
I had an eating thing in high school. I had sleep problems. I still have sleep problems. I took caffeine pills. You get 200 on Amazon for like 10 bucks. It tastes awful, 'cause. You're supposed to wash it down with something. It's a pill. It's literally just straight up caffeine. That's what you're tasting. It has a very distinct awful taste. It's similar to how nicotine lozenges make you like vomit as they kind of get down your throat and make you vomit. Pzazz tastes like a caffeine pill. I repeat, it tastes like a caffeine pill, so you're experiencing the taste of a caffeine pill. For a bottle that's 50 to 60 milligrams of caffeine, which is less than a cup of coffee. And you're tasting that five sprays, you know, every couple hours, every hour. So when you do 5 sprays, that's like 10% of the bottle, maybe less. So you're getting like 5 milligrams of caffeine, but you have to taste an entire caffeine pill. Whereas that same taste washed down with a little water would give you 200 milligrams of caffeine, equivalent to a proper energy drink. So there's, I guess there's a cost benefit, but not up against pills you can get at CVS. Though a spritz makes you look like less of a microdosing programming crackhead.
I think a lot of jobs give you ready access to coffee. Society is built around giving you ready access to caffeine. It's one of the most socially acceptable drug dependencies next to alcohol and the phone. The reason that they're trying to get in front of it with all these sexy people in the ads is because it's bad product. You save a little money, sure, but they're not pushing that idea at all. They're pushing "Oh, it'll make you like Rafa from ion.” It'll make you an insane person. They're saying it'll make you cool. I don't want that. I've read Meg's blog. I don't want to be crazy. I like having my head screwed on straight. Unlike these downtown kids, these ******* freaks. So that doesn't work for me.
There was Rise, which is a caffeine vape. Doesn’t seem to exist anymore. It's stupid because you still can't vape inside. It's illegal. So you're a student trying to quit Juul. I guess you could juul, you could vape the rise in the same place as you vape juul. But. I mean, come on. The caffeine spritz does make a little more sense. And another benefit to it. I should make a list. I work at a finance firm. I'm a temp. I just had it in my little blazer pocket and I'd just take it out and do a little spritz and say Hi. How's it going? What's up? Long day, you know, shit like that. And it worked for that. But I do work at a job where they have an automatic espresso machine sometimes two or three on every floor. And. It takes just enough time that I can put the sign up, leave my desk, go get coffee, come right back and people will totally understand. And also I know who's coming to the desk at all times, so unless someone like really needs instructions, and if they do, I'm ******* walking back in two minutes so I don't even really need it. I mean, it didn't. I didn't really feel much. I think I didn't sleep that night, but didn't really feel necessary. So you know, if you're at the bodega, save your money, put it towards one of those big dick disposable vapes or something. Put it toward some beans. Yeah, put it towards a coffee machine or something. Get a new job. I don't know what you do. What is it for? Partying. You could just get a Red Bull. I saw Omar S at 88 Palace, got covid and Red Bull was like 8 dollara. Everyone was fighting with bartenders. Can’t take skaters nowhere.
I guess drinks are expensive and zaz is cheap, but it's like how? How is 50 milligrams of caffeine gonna change your night at all? That's like having a little espresso at the end of a meal, like you go to sleep after that.
