Mailmen across the US must now know that packages to Giantbomb are energydrinks, so when they are tired after delivering mail, they just check if they have a giantbomb-package to deliver, pierce it with a knife and insert a straw and regain some of that lost energy! Fool proof plan!

Mine probably didn't fare well either. I just threw some cans in a box, used some Jolly Ranchers as package padding, and it was good to go. Or... not so good.

I echo Lyphen's sentiments.  You had me all excited to see the horrifying state of the box's contents, then the video ended. D:

That's like saying you're about to blow up this 747 sitting behind you, placing the 20,000 lb. of C4, and going "Alright, see you next time."

I both owned and loved this CD back in middle school :)
The rest of the album was really quite different from "Informer" though

That's what packing peanuts and expensive shipping are for.

I think it cost me twice as much to ship energy drinks to you guys as it did to buy the nine-odd cans in the first place.

Does anyone have a list of drinks they've tested?  There are a bunch sold near me, and I always consider sending some, but I don't want to send repeats.
