Poll: So, Escapists; How 'Bout Some Coffee?

[thylasos]

Best for late nights and early mornings. Works nice with cigarettes and chocolate, too.

I drink my coffee black with sugar. I don't actually like the taste too much but I had to get used to drinking it as it is the culture here. Anywhere you go the first question people will make is, "Would you like some coffee?" So drinking coffee is more like a form of socializing and for that reason I don't drink coffee when I'm alone, I only drink it when I have company.

F...K...In the coffee!

On topic I really cant stand the taste of the stuff reminds me of dirt, yes I have tasted dirt.

I like coffee occasionally - a few times a week, but not every morning. I have one of the Keurig [https://www.keurig.com/] single-cup brewers, which is fantastic. It also makes tea and hot chocolate when I'm in the mood.

 

[Mr Snuffles]

Not a massive fan myself, prefer Hot Chocolate

 

[ICantBelieveItGoesBoom]

... Shrimp sandwiches, shrimp stew (I hope that reference gets noticed, otherwise, I'll feel pretty stupid).

What do you think about coffee?

BUBBA! Now where's my cookie?

But preferably with no coffee because...

OT: I hate coffee in almost all forms, but I do have a thing for VERY weak mochas, especially caffé nero ones.

 

[TheColdHeart]

I do prefer tea but every now and again I'll have a coffee. I tend to drink stuff from a cafitiere or a Starbucks (A bit of a whore for the caramel macchiato).

I'm not a huge fan of instant coffees. Although when I was at my old job in the call centre the "coffee" from the machines did often give me the lift to get through,.

 

[molester jester]

Coffee and a cigarette at sunrise = the best part of my day

 

[Insanum]

No thanks, Ive already got some...

[almostgold]

I like it so much I gave it up for Lent.

Now I'm stuck drinking this pussy-ass Tea shit until I can be a man again come Easter.

What about Coffee? We've had many threads about beverages and such, but I've never heard about coffee here on the Escapist.

It's really a very cool drink, it's been shown to reduce the risk of Type 2 Diabetes and some forms of Cancers, and can keep you on your toes for several hours in the wee morning.

Coffee is also very versatile, it can be drunk hot, cold, iced, sweet, bitter, salty (though, this is not advised), sweet with a hint of bitter, bitter with a hint of sweet, and the list goes on... Shrimp sandwiches, shrimp stew (I hope that reference gets noticed, otherwise, I'll feel pretty stupid).

What do you think about coffee?

Not really a fan of coffee. It taste pretty crummy in its "black" version, it stunts growth, and I find it causes a dependency in people to wake up if drunk regularly. Juice works just as well, and gets my digestive system in gear, making me more ready for the day than coffee.

And what about shrimp stew?

I dunno about it stunting growth, but even so, most teenagers are about as tall as they need to be by around 15-18, so how harmful could coffee really be?

The shrimp thing was a Forrest Gump reference, by the way.

Oh really? I must watch that movie again........

Anyway, you'd be surprised how much you can grow. I'm nineteen, and over the last 5 years I've grown a good 7 inches in height, making me an even 6 feet tall.

 

[Falseprophet]

I love coffee. I prefer it metal. Blacker than the blackest black, times infinity:


Seriously, I love espresso: double short; no sugar. But not that burned Starbucks sludge. Once in a while I'll have a latte, but generally I don't like milk, cream or sugar in my coffee.

My little stovetop espresso maker does a better job than the machines most of these so-called cafes have. I like Tim Horton's too, in a pinch, but also black. I used to drink 3-4 cups of coffee or espresso a day; upping to 2 or 3 pots during finals or major papers. Lately, for my sanity I try to keep it to 1 or 2 cups a day. You can have too much of a good thing.

 

[blankedboy]

Mmm.... coffee.

I like cappuccino, latte, and best of all, MOCHACCINO. Epic win, that drink.

That's interesting, but I still don't know if I believe that coffee stunts growth, I was always under the impression that coffee was better for you than most other brewed/caffeinated beverages. It's something to research, I 'spose.
