And did you get sick? I'm trying to caffeine-load for work tonight, because I do some hefty stuff. But I don't want to get sick, and I want to be able to have fun after work too. It is Friday, after all. Any ideas or opinions?

A pot of coffee will NOT kill you. You would have to drink gallons, very quickly, to get ill. For most people, brewing a pot and drinking it throughout the night in a leisurely fashion will not have any negative effects, other than keeping you up and giving you a bit of the Caffeine Jitters.
Hey, this is the cheapest legal high you can get. Go for it. (But make sure you don't forget to eat and have an occasional water.)

It depends on how much you usually drink at can cause you to basically overdose on caffeine. This won't kill you obviously, but you'll get a serious case of gut rot. It is painful. Plus you'll be in and out of the restroom all night. This happens to me after about a pot and a half, and I average a little less than a pot a day. You can always go with an energy drink instead. Hope this helps.

I've done it and suggest you don't. While it will uplift you for a time, when it wears off, you will be the worse for wear.
Caffeine is not a good substance to introduce into your body. Especially not in such a high dose. If you ever decided to quit caffeine, that is when you would realize it's drawbacks.
It's like eating a candy bar for energy, you get the energy, but it's short lived.
Try taking Geritol multi-vitamins ( yeah, the older peoples vitamin or so they think). Take one at night right before you go to bed. I worked two jobs and began at 5am. I started taking Geritol (pills not liquid) and was always alert without feeling tired and it's a much healthier route.....

I drink coffee pretty much all day long so yes i have diffenently had a whole pot of coffee before, and it doesnt make me sick, but im used to it. You you arent use to drinking a lot of coffee then it could make your tummy hurt. Drink it slowly through out your shift, and make sure you dont have an empty stomach. a lot of coffee+no food=bad. Just keep your self busy and keep your spirts high and you should be good!

I'd buy a few "No Doze" over the counter. They are the same as coffee .. but you don't have to drink so much. It could be a problem drinking a full pot of coffee .. you will have to use the bathroom a lot. Good Luck ! :)

you can do that no problem. no problem at all, just spread it out for a while, don't sit there and down it in one continuous drink. i've been so bad with coffee that i was up to six med-lg a day, until i cut back, it may make you jittery and wired/lack of focus/concentration,

You can drink a whole pot, i've done it many times.
Just time your 8 ounce drinks.....one per hour until you are done!
You'll be ready for whatever! Sha-zammmmmmmmmm
