Captain Obvious says: "Caffeine withdrawal is REAL!"

The article's actual title doesn't state this, but the headline in the sidebar did and instantly gave me that "this was a mystery?" look of confusion on my face. No one was here to see it. Everyone loses. But srsly, are people not aware of this? The nervousness, depression, massive headaches... people weren't attributing that to caffeine withdrawal? Well folks, now you know. Thank you CNN.

On a personal note, I pretty much gave up caffeine maybe eight years ago, or so. I don't even remember anymore. Mostly because the withdrawal was hitting me too hard and too frequently. I figured since I don't really NEED the caffeine there's really no loss in cutting it out of my diet. So basically, only decaf coffee and tea and no caffeinated beverages. The only exceptions I make are for chocolate (both solid and hot), but those are very small amounts by comparison and I've never felt any reaction from consuming chocolate.

In other news, sugar makes kids hyper. It's TRUE!

@alibakes Haywire is a sparse little covert thriller featuring a smooth jazz score. I can't think of anything else to say about it.

@kumailn Funny, at first I thought you were referring to the now defunct game studio.

@dcorsetto For the record, I'm more grossed out by pooping. And war. War and pooping, mostly.

@wired I only use Gmail to manage my Contacts. Today was the first time I had seen the new interface. I couldn't find the Contacts.

Twitter ran out of "who to follow" recommendations for me. I should probably turn the Internet off now.
