Junk is an energy drink and soft drink manufacturer appearing in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online.

Description[]

Junk Energy Drink seems to be a parody of Monster Energy or Red Bull. The term "junk" carries multiple entendres; at face value it can be seen as a reference to the unhealthy nature of energy drinks. "Junk" is also a slang term for heroin, evidenced by the spoon/syringe incorporated into the "U", as well as the slogan "the quick fix." It could also be a take on the term "adrenaline junkie," or a compulsively energetic and adventurous person. Junk could also be a reference to the slang for penis. This is further supported by the syringe, which looks like someone masturbating.

It is one of the sponsors for the North Point Trim Track in Paleto Bay, as well as the Fame or Shame TV show. Going to their in-game webpage www.junkenergydrink.com will lead the player to a link that shows all the stunt jumps over San Andreas.

In Grand Theft Auto Online, Junk received a completely new logo. This logo has much closer influence to Monster Energy, like the new greenish blue colour instead of the old orange and red colours. The new logo also appears to be based on Mountain Dew. The logo's "The Quick Fix" tagline uses Bank Gothic which is the same Monster Energy uses on its logo for its tagline, the text also has a light grey outline just like the Monster logo.

One of the Arena War sponsor ads shown includes Junk, "The Half Time Quick Fix", and that the energy drink is available at the concession stands of the Maze Bank Arena.

Along with the new logo, some vehicle liveries with the new logo uses turquoise coloured smoke which could be a reference to Burn Energy which is owned by Monster Energy.

Website[]

Junk! The official beverage of living on the edge and extreme sports. We sponsor more athletes that end up paralyzed or dead than any other energy drink.

We have rooms full of advertising wonks whose only job is to come up with these slogans, because we are passionate about the under-25 demographic and their reckless lifestyle. You're the social media generation. You don't work hard but you play hard. You care about self expression but have no idea what it means.

Teens! Learn More About Your Junk[]

This part of the website describes all of the ingredients and benefits of the drink.

You need energy. Your body is weak and you run out of energy from insecurity, spastic masturbation, anxiety and self loathing. You need Junk! Your friends and parents don't understand you. We've spent billions of dollars making sure that we do.

Adrenaline Junkies Map[]

This website is the only place in-game that provides a map of all of the stunt jump, under the bridge, and base jump locations (though base jump locations are visible on the in-game map). The Adrenaline Junkies map does not update as the player progress through completing the events listed.

Trivia[]

  • On the website, if the player answers "No" to the "Are you over 21?" question, it will then ask to try again, with the only answer being "Yes", which will let the player access the page.
