Put the caffeine in a syringe so you can FORCE your body to accept it.

We all know you barf if you drink too much caffeine so this would force you to accept the caffeine so you would stay awake!!

       I'm not certain about this, but from my research yesterday, I gathered that the digestive issues are not caused by caffeine physically contacting your stomach, but by the physiological effects of the substance. Shooting it might even make the negative effects more pronounced.   

       Again, there's that assumption that everyone else has the same problem. "We all know you barf if you drink too much caffeine..." Do we? I didn't. Is this a common thing? I was aware that some folks get jittery, unable to sleep (which I do, if I drink anything with caffeine after noon), even have heart palpitations. But I didn't reali(s)ze there was such a large chunk of gastrointestinally-affected populace.

       I'm willing to bet there's a link to lower bowel conditions and their rapid rise to prominence.   

       It amuses me that we pity societies where consumption of mind-altering drugs is commonplace (Kogi Indians and Coca chewing, Some Arab/Subsaharan countries and Khat chewing) yet conveniently overlook our dependence upon caffeine and sugar. It's so bad that advertisers have started calling caffeine by another name... Guarana.

       im pretty sure that would be very dangerous if not lethal   

       how much coffee do you have to drink to barf? i have never barfed from too much caffeine. maybe you should just go to bed earlier. this would also get rid of those nasty shadows under your eyes
