Starbucks employs me so being an addict to this stuff comes with the territory(not really, just for some). I love this stuff. Before I did a thread based on all drugs, but now I want to do one revolving solely on coffee.

I wake up, I need it... I go to put my shirt on, I need it... I go to eat some... well, you get the point. I drink a lot of coffee. Let's refrain from judging lil' ol' Atlas in this thread and just focus on our own problems or lack thereof. ^_^

Do y'all drink coffee?

I drink iced coffee, but not regular hot coffee. I love Starbucks frappaccino, and BKs new Iced Joe or whatever it's called.

I get all my caffeine from sodas, to which I am hopelessly addicted. And am out of dammit!

Never been a fan of coffee.

IMO, it's the equivalent of liquified mud. Don't hate me.

Yes, around 4 or 5 cups a day at the office. It keeps me awake.

Outside of my work environment I rarely drink it. We dont have a single starbucks here but there are a couple places that make iced coffee and its not so bad.

If I have to take care of some errands on saturday I normally pick one up alongside a sandwhich.

I'd like to try some of the Starbucks varieties of coffee, I might like it, but the nearest one to me is roughly a 45 minute drive, and I ain't going that far to try coffee. I can't think of any kind of similar coffee place near me, except the gas stations that are trying to cash in on the current flavored coffee craze. And somehow, I just don't trust Hotspot or Texaco to have the best coffee out there.

I started drinking coffee once I started working long days. Getting up at 6:00 or 6:30 in the morning? I need a coffee or four before I can function. I'm actually starting to really enjoy it too.

Matron

I hate tea.

I'm sorry, I know this is a coffee thread, but I'm out of soda and I'm having to drink tea, and I needed to whine a bit.

Caffeine doesn't affect me much. That's what college and downing 3 Monsters in a night will do to you. I really only drink coffee when I'm literally about to fall asleep and then it's iced and black- occasionally with some sugarfree hazelnut syrup if where ever I'm getting the coffee has it.

The only way I can even slightly enjoy tea is iced. We've got some great Passion Tea at my work that we put over ice. Yummay!

Dark, black. I'll take Starbucks, but there are a few local places that serve coffee far superior to the black one buys from the 'bucks.

I have my coffee bouts every now and again, but it doesn't really do much for me in terms of waking me up. I just love the taste!

I am not a coffee fan, sadly! I'm more of a tea girl but since moving to France, I've been drinking more and more coffee mainly because I have a non-stop supply of Kopi Luwak (poop!) and I'm addicted to poop :(

Yeah, not a huge fan of coffee here. If I need some sort of kick I'll pick up a Monster or something. They taste/smell like otter pops.

Red Bull is the best. =)

Matron
06-13-2008, 11:15 PM
Blech, I hate Red Bull. For energy drinks, I like Sobe Adrenaline Rush, and Full Throttle Blue Demon. Amp is ok too.

Those Five Hour energy shots taste nasty, but they go down fast at least.

Phakiel

I am terrified of Red Bull and other similar drinks. I imagine I am gonna go and flip out insanely and wake up in the hospital after a cardiac arrest or something.

Matron
06-13-2008, 11:45 PM
They don't usually affect me that much, I was surprised. They make me feel less sleepy, but not jittery like diet/energy pills I tried when I was young and stupid.

Matron
06-13-2008, 11:47 PM
I don't really get how that works. Jager is disgusting, Red Bull is disgusting, what do they cancel each other out?

I once tried sake with beer. I ended attending my boss' bday gathering completely drunk and being an asshole.

Good times.

Its impressive really. Normally i am a bit of a jerk (no for real, i know you think I am this nice guy but I can be mean) but sometimes when i get drunk I go into asshole mode.

One time at a club I ran into this friend of my sister. She was happy to see me and shit and well, lets just say she would have been an easy prey. Then apparently her friends left and I was going near her because this friend with fake boobs was there and I wanted to grind to her, but she calls me out and starts talking about her life and relationships and i go "Why are you telling me this shit?" So she was like, **** you ad I proceded to grind with Plastic Tits.

Of course I dont remember being mean to her until the nexzt day when I was talking to my sister about bumping into her friend.

Seconded.

I like Monster Energy or AMP.

Atlas
06-14-2008, 12:54 AM
Along with Red Bull I do enjoy Amp. Mountain Dew isn't my favorite, but their energy drink sure kicks bootay.

Matron
06-14-2008, 01:57 AM
Have you tried those new Mountain Dews? Two of them are blue, the other is a kind of purple, I really like the purple one. Supernova, I think it's called. I don't notice any energy rush from it though.

No, actually, haven't seen those yet.

This is probably a good place to mention that Starbucks just incorporated new Energy Packets to it's list of things to add to your drink.

It is a small pouch, and we can add it to any drink you like. It goes best with espresso but also goes well with our iced teas.

It is a mixture of guarana, ginseng, and B-12. It's got an insane kick. I take them home sometimes and just go at it. Although, I should probably add that this is mostly stuff that makes up energy drinks, and has the same crash effect a lot of times.

I'm from Canada so obviously I'm addicted to Tim Hortons. I think that place should be a tourist attraction for foreigns... from 6am-2pm people are lined up sometimes all the way outside, and the drive thru has cars lined up into the streets... all for a cup of coffee that they could easily get at one of the other 10 coffee chains, or the other 100 stand alone coffee places.

Tim Horton deals in cocaine I'm pretty sure.

Actually I do but since thats at least 6 to 8 years in the future I just enjoy my youth days. I even kinda picked who I could marry, problem is that she may have an obesity and diabetes gene and she wants to marry by the time she is 27 and she is around 2 years older than me. So actually I dont think thats gonna work.

Yes. And they're ****ing Awesome.

Matron
06-14-2008, 02:39 AM
I always forget which one of the blue ones I like and which one I don't, so I end up buying one of each, and then next time, I just repeat the pattern. Yeah, I'm ditzy like that.

But I like the Supernova one the best of all.

Supernova was pretty good, but my favorite is Revolution. I'm buying some tomorrow I'd wager.

Red Bull and Jager is called a Jager Bomb...because it drops hard and goes down smooth.

Red Bull and Vodka? wtf.....Compounding something tasteless/worthless(vodka) with something that tastes awful?

Correction: Red Bull is enhanced by Jager. Or vice versa. Either way, both stand fine on their own, as far as I'm concerned.

I won't take Starbucks with normal coffee, but I'll do Frappuccinos.

There's a place local called Simone's, though, that has damn awesome coffee and tea. And mixed drinks. And pastries. Neat place with a board filling an entire wall, all the items and prices written in chalk; around the long, curved window are tables for two, with a big community table set in the center of the room and newspapers courtesy of management. A section in the back sells trinkets created by local artists. But the coffee owns.

And the baristas are foxy.

My husband is the greatest man in the world. He brought me soda last night. *sigh* It's the little things that keep a marriage going. For me, one of those little things is remembering stuff like this. He couldn't have made me happier if he'd come in with a dozen roses.

Atlas
06-14-2008, 07:08 PM
Glad to hear you love your husband so much and visa versa, I'm sure. I will be married soon enough probably to a woman I know currently. We are just friends for now.

Otherwise, soda is bad for you. Save water, drink beer.

Matron
06-14-2008, 07:11 PM
Yeah, I know it's terrible for me, but there are worse things to be hooked on.

Growing up with spring water kinda ruined me for anything but that or bottled water, I can taste the chemicals in tap water. I need to get me one of those filter systems.

Atlas
06-14-2008, 07:31 PM
I think they are called Brita water filters or something or other. They are really handy and cheap.

I coffee is the weiner of drugs. It's pretty damn good though.

When I was working at a bar, I used to come in on mornings when it wasn't my shift, just to get a good full pot of freshly brewed free coffee pumping through my veins.

Atlas
