EASE
IN ACQUISITION—6
I
got mine at a grocery store, but for the most part you find these sorts of
things alongside the chlorophyll wonder pills and male enhancement shots at gas
stations.
APPEARANCE/PRESENTATION—2
I’m
really not sure what the idea behind being the “world’s first microshot” was,
less now that I’ve actually tried the stuff. I imagine that the initial rationale was convenience—I mean,
how cool would it be if you could load your purse or pockets with teeny bottles
of energy?—but really, there’s nothing convenient about filling your pockets
with these big, clunky cardboard cards designed to contain these miniscule
shots. Second mark against
convenience is the fact that it takes so much longer to get through than a
regular shot—the opening you get from twisting the top of the flimsy plastic
microbottle is hardly worthy of being called such; I would say it counts more
as a pore. And finally, the third
mark against the convenience theory is the fact that once you’ve tried these, you never freaking want to ever have to do
it again.
TASTE—0
I’m
pretty conservative with my rating system, I think. I very rarely dole out an illustrious 10/10 for flavor, and
even if your product is really bad, you usually manage to at least get at least
one point. If a product is
especially noxious, it will get .5/10, but 0/10…you have to have something
especially repugnant on several different levels to merit that.
That
having been said, I have tried both shots available at the local Broulim’s
store, and they were both repellent enough that I’m almost ready to think that
they were toxic. Egad, this was an
awful experience….
The
first thing I thought when the first squirt reached my mouth was that I had
just ingested some sort of organic solvent. You know the smell of acetone, or rubbing alcohol? Well, that’s about what this tastes
like, minus perhaps a burn. Maybe
this is what toluene tastes like?
Second mental observation was that I tasted plastic—yes, the essence of
the bottle has steeped into the liquid, and once it reaches your throat the
smell fills your nose. Lastly, I
noted that there was no berry flavor, but wait…after I had rinsed my mouth several times with water, it popped
up—but it wasn’t good at all, and only went away once I brushed my teeth and
used mouth rinse.
On
the bright side, the Dynapep Company has a bright future in the production of
berry-flavored emetics. I’m sure
they’ll taste better coming up than going down, because it couldn’t possibly
get worse than this.
KICK
(INTENSITY)—9
I
had high hopes for this shot (most every review I’ve read has stated that they
kick pretty well for only having 100 mg of caffeine), and I suppose in this
regard they didn’t disappoint. The
kick is pretty intense and moderately jittery, which makes it good in the event
that you’re going to be doing something physical—though I wouldn’t consume it
if you’re going to be going to a meeting or school or something that requires
you to actually sit still.
KICK
(DURATION)—9
This
microshot had some admirable sustain when it came to its energy; I felt the
full effects for at least four hours after the fact—after which it tapered off
in a fashion that could be likened unto a freefall. Make sure you’re done with whatever you needed the energy
for by the time the finish line rolls around, because you’ll basically be
nonfunctional after the fact.
THE
SHOT OVERALL—6
The
energy’s good while it lasts, but it tastes
so dang bad and crashes so hard that I would never in a million years
recommend it. To top things off, I
paid $2.50 for this miserable shot of bile—and it was on sale. This is one thing to avoid, to attempt
to employ the cliché with full effect, at all costs.
