Ahh, yellow jackets. Man, we used to take them and drink like crazy. I once partied at a friends house, and we had partied the night before until like 3 in the morning. Well, I had to work at 8am until 6pm. Well, after work, I drove straight to his house and was like damn I'm not gonna make it tonight. He hadned me two yellow jackets, and I passed out for about a half hour. Woke up rejuvinated and drank a case of beer that night until I finally (and I mean finally) fell asleep at 6am. The bad part was, I wasn't even drunk from the beer. Just jittery and couldn't sleep. It was horrible. Never took them again.
