Energy drinks are crap. Coffee is superior.

Pure, black coffee or coffee with milk - sure. Sugary wonderdrink from Starbucks - not so much.

all I am saying is that people are slamming energy drink for ''high caffeine content'' and slamming like 8 coffees during the day without batting an eye.

Who drinks 8 coffee a day? Most drink at max. 2-3. What a weak argument lmao, making up scenarious.

I work with guys who always have a cup of coffee in their hands. Go through like 8 pots a day with these 10 guys legit. My parents always drink coffee all day and so do their friends. Coffee is way over consumed. Energy drink drinkers will have one maybe 2 a day. Coffee heads will get their ice coffee on the way to work then pour a cup of hot every 2 hours until they go home.

Nah, in Croatia we drink one coffee at morning and another in the afternoon. Any more than that is not normal. Myb it is different in Netherlands.
