I read the article to try to find something  to get irritated by, which usually isn't much work for me, but I couldn't find it.  

 

Is it something more nefarious than the "smart drinks" that were a staple of rave culture back during rave culture?  From the prestigious Wikipedia:

 

The popularity of smart drinks peaked during the early 1990s, as all-night techno and house music parties took place, events of the underground dance culture at the time, known as "raves."

Shame on anyone enjoying life, right? If you're not medicating or dreading it, you're doing it wrong.

Those offended and/or irritated by this sober, harmless activity are the pathetic ones. Who knew one could be criticized for choosing to enjoy their time with music and juice while not impacting anyone else nearby? The same cannot be said for pub crawls, unfortunately (see: public urination, vomiting).

Sounds like fun, except for the kale part.
