What is up with energy drinks?

Ok whats up with "energy" drinks? when I drink them Its hard to pee and it smells funky sometimes... I used to be addicted to em, stopped for a while but now if I have one at all it just gets hard to pee it all out...

I use drink them now I use energy shots like 5 hour energy. I only use it when I go to the gym. It works for me. No side affects either!

well I hate them
the problem is that your probably drinking them when your not going to be using all the excess energy
if your not going to be excerscising that day dont drink them
its better to drink water
otherwise your fulling you body with...well crap really
energy drinks contain lots of ingredients that your body just doesent need!
