Make The Bonk!
I don’t tend to do these sort of newsy posts, but I wanted to share this with all of you. Huddle ’round, children!
So, you’ve seen how to make the sandvich, but what about Bonk? Haven’t you always wanted to take a sip of that mysterious radioactive concoction, which causes all your enemies to have terrible aim and miss you even if you stand perfectly still? Of course you do!
Well, spotted over by the towrags on the Steam forums, Super Pretendo shows you how it’s done to make the energy drink which is probably not good for your life expectancy:

Graven_Image… I find it slightly concerning that I’m laughing so much about your potential death to this drink.

GAH! SUGAR COMA!
The only real possibility of a diabetic is the Heavy, and even then, it’s type 2.

I’m going to try this as soon I find Portuguese equivalents for all ingredients except Red Bull.
But first, let me check up on my life insurance.

Pretty sure they don’t cover radioactive energy drinks. Now with new Isotopes.

that much caffeine would probally kill me, those people who died from caffiene overdose say “I”.

I used to work in GNC when I lived in the states, and from my experience there I came out pretty clued up on energy. The 5hr stuff is great, we’re only just getting that here in the UK, but it won’t make you hyper. All the caffeine just makes you pee lots (maybe that’s the slowdown?) and, generally, none of that will make you run faster or dodge bullets.
You ever hear of a fat burner? They sound scarier than they are; it’s some caffeine and some other herbs that boost your adrenaline a lot. People use them to lose weight, because adrenaline starts breaking up fat to release energy.
My manager told me this story. He was a weight lifter and personal trainer, so he ran into lots of other product users at the gym and through his trainer thing, and he’d heard about this girl who’d drunk lots of beer while she was on a fat burner. Apparently, all that sugar and carbohydrate from the beer (beer has a higher GI than sugar itself) combined with the fat burner and made her turn into a “psychotic sprinting machine”.
So there you go; over the counter fat-burner (plenty of cheap ones) and some beer will make you go mad, run fast, then die.

Wow, the crash from that thing would stop your heart.
Awesome ending, didn’t see it coming.

If I can stay awake for 24 hours without feeling fatigued and drink 10 cans of Red Bull without twitching, then I think it’s time to step it up a bit.
Gentlemen, I’m going to drink this.
And if I don’t come back, then I died running in traffic, then losing my invincibility halfway across the road.

Given a certain Scottish influence, I’m more than sure that I could rustle up a cocktail out of this radioactive roister.
Danger table responded on 02 Mar 2009 at 9:55 pm #
The drink looks cool, have to try it sometime. But does anyone have instructions how to make the can?? Id like to make it

The entire 5 Hour drink? Sounds healthy to me.

@ Graven_Image
I’m not diabetic, and I think that would kill me.
nalfang responded on 03 Mar 2009 at 6:05 am #
Yeah, I dont think this would KILL you, per say, But you might want to see a doctor afterward.
Not that much worse than eating a big bag of candy.
Dr. Mikard responded on 03 Mar 2009 at 8:02 am #
I’m energy drink-hardened, time to give it a try. But I won’t mix Red Bull with another energy drink…
*Preparing dat sh*t… Dammit, I sure had some difficulties with finding something I can color the drink with.*

I’m totally gonna try this.
*waNananANAnaAna*
But really. I’ve had the 5-hour things before, immediately followed by a big-ass 24-oz can of Rockstar… A little more sugar shouldn’t hurt…
If I don’t come back from this alive… well… Just tell them I got cocky with the sentry guns.

It’s best served with a side of syrup-drenched pancake wrapped around Kentucky Fried Chicken, dipped in baconnaise.
Yes, baconnaise is real. Look it up.

I made this it tastes pretty good but I couldn’t sleep until 6:00 AM.
I drank the concoction at 7:20 PM. LOL
Nick responded on 14 Sep 2009 at 12:54 pm #
That stuff is probably qualified as radioactive after all that. Only downside is that the “slowdown” would most likely kill you.
