Hubby and I went on a fast for one week many years ago. He had a raging headache for the first few days, and we finally figured out that it was because he wasn’t getting his caffeine.

As soon as our fast was over with, he went right back to drinking too much coffee again. Sigh..

Humblegunner and Eaker were lucky to live through discovering deer get crazy on coffee.
As for somebody getting homicidal on the stuiff, I dunno.
Must consult the knowledge database on this one.

Your mileage may vary.

Personally I’ve aquired additional boom-sticks as a result.

That’s just me, yo.

I am getting old and beating the Zombie-Deer to death with a rock is not such a sure thing any more.

Just sayin’...
