This bill is just ridiculous. It's gonna mess with my daily routine and I'm not happy about it. Why do they have to go and regulate something as simple as caffeine? It's like they're trying to control every little aspect of our lives. This is just another example of government overreach. It's frustrating to see them getting involved in things that don't need their interference. Just let us live our lives without all these unnecessary rules and regulations. #HandsOffMyCaffeine
