Fair certain that had nothing to do with caffeine. Because I'd have been dead years ago if that was the case.

I have my own cure for a hangover, I stop drinking before the first drink.
Unfortunately, that has one disadvantage, I'm just as hard-drinking as Doc Brown
Never had hangovers myself, I guess I'm just lucky or have an abnormally active amount of cytochrome P450.
Felt like sh*t on a shingle, though? More than often enough.
Can I just take this moment to be inexcusably off topic and serious, though? (Why'm I asking? I'm gonna do so anyhoo):
I just love this thread. Not only have I met a whole bunch of new friends, I've also learned a lot about y'all and, as it turns out, y'all are a lot more like me than you'd probably like to admit. I know I wouldn't.

And don't worry, I never met him and he died decades ago^^
you shouldn't overdo itSeveral litres of coffee per day probably doesn't help
Is that even a thing?
Overdoing? Probably...
I'd like to know how then, because L-rd knows I've tried. Used to drink this thing in the army where we'd empty our freeze-dried cocoa, coffee and milk into our canteen cup, add our whole sugar ration, water as necessary and then a handful of caffeine tablets. Heat up until dissolved. Couldn't sleep for days even if you wanted to.
Agreed!Can I just take this moment to be inexcusably off topic and serious, though? (Why'm I asking? I'm gonna do so anyhoo):

I don't like admitting it either
A little caffeine overdose from time to time doesn't hurt. And one liter of coffee per day seems to be ok, at least you are drinking something and hot drinks on hot days are more healthy than cold drinks.
Well, I am actually working on my ESPHome Server
Us Brits just fitted 'Water Boiling Vessels' into all our armoured vehicles to keep a never-ending supply of tea going. (NATO Standard, of course - milky* and sweet)
Officially, it's not a tea kettle, but it totally is. Because they were fitted after the Bigwigs found out lots of tank crews were getting killed in WW2, because they were getting out of their tanks during lulls in the fighting to brew up, and getting spotted by snipers. Can't get shot by a sniper if you don't have to get out the tank to brew up.
As a side bit of trivia, it means the AFV crews rarely need to run guard duty on exercises, as long as they give the Infantry access to the WBV at night!
*Note, this may or may not be actual 'milk', just ask Holly.
Russian did the same, but with home brewed "vodka". And by that, I mean, they took whatever could be turned into alcohol and added whatever they had on hand. Mostly engine oil.
The French Navy had a generous portion of the stockage aboard the warship reserved for wine. Some of high quality for the officer and guests.
It was coolant. But other than that, you're right.
Morning.
Never seen an armadillo riding a bicycle before! Amazing!
Very much in the vein of "I wouldn't join a club that would have me as a member".Can I just take this moment to be inexcusably off topic and serious, though? (Why'm I asking? I'm gonna do so anyhoo):
