U.K. teenager overdoses on caffeine

Talk about a bad day.

A 17-year-old English barista was rushed to the hospital after drinking seven double espressos at work that left her laughing while crying, hyperventilating and “burning up,”

Being sent to the hospital is milking it for all its worth?

rolleyes

 

i probably was a bit obtuse with that one :confused
theres no milk in espresso
just a bit of northern humour,
sometimes i forget that most of the web is outside the UK

 

Caffeine was my drug of choice growing up She made the fundemental mistake,

Dont get high on your own supply!

 

Have never drunk a cup of coffee in my (long) life. Can't stand the smell, or taste, of anything with coffee in, or coffee flavoured. Bazza

 

I've almost gotten that way from Dan's Dr. Pepper

 

Wah! No! I love drinking coffee, especially in Starbucks! So nice and yummy!
