Fistbumping lesbians

Be careful with your caffeine.
One espresso has ~60mg of caffeine, which means a Fistbumping Lesbian has 7 * 60mg = 420mg. This means it's 20mg over the FDA's determination of what's safe for adults, so in the range of the lemonades from the article linked above. Don't drink more than one of these per day.
- my favorite brand of energy drink has 300mg caffeine per can.
  i work overnight and i sometimes need to keep my adenosine receptors clear to stay alert through my whole shift.
  when i do drink them, i almost never drink more than one can.
  but there are some nights that are especially rough, and I'll actually drink two.
  those are the nights where i could really use a lesbian fistbump x_x
  
  Bang? It's my favorite. Sour heads. I drink one every day.
- hehe 420
- Uh-oh, I shouldn't have had seconds!
- As someone who suffered from severe chronic insomnia for 14 years, there were times I'd drink 5-6 rockstars (800-960mg) to make it through my 12 hour shifts. No one should ever do this, obviously, but when you haven't slept in days you do what you must.
- Now have you ever had instant coffee with mate using an energy drink instead of water? Because that has a similar effect on people I know.
  Can't really tell you how much there was of each ingredient sadly.
  
  No, and it doesn't sound tasty. If it's a 250ml mug (roughly a US cup; exactly AU/NZ cup) though, its caffeine content should be lower: 80mg from the energy drink, 40mg from the mate, 100mg from the coffee = 220mg caffeine.

Potion of heart failure

Seven shots of vodka or what?
- I'm guessing espresso. I think, that's a thing that coffee people call a "shot" when they add an espresso to their drink...
  
  Oh I thought seven shots of caramel. That sounded disgusting
  
  It's definitely this. Most coffee shop coffee is espresso with or without other stuff added in, like steamed milk if it's a latte. A shot of espresso is essentially one cup of it (as in an espresso cup, not the kind of cup you'd measure flour in when baking). It actually is a similar volume to a shot of vodka though
  
  Oh okay so they will just have a bit of hyperactivity then :)
- I mean, that's how I'd do it.

My understanding was that espresso had less caffeine than a long coffee.
- A mug of drip coffee has about twice as much caffeine as an espresso (depending on your beans, extraction, and how big your mug is). So this is still like drinking three and a half mugs of drip coffee at once
