Frappacino ain't coffee, its a weak milkshake without the cherry. Whatever happened to coffee being hot as hell, disgusting, and supercharged with enough caffeine to make you go temporarily blind?

Its the only reason to drink coffee, okay?
Coffee tastes lousy when its good, its absolutely poisonous when bad. Even when you flavor the bejeezus out of it it still wouldn't taste as good as a shake or malt. So you're left with only one real reason to drink it: Caffeine. Caffeine will perk you up, take the edge off your morning headache and grogginess and so forth. Its the same with tobacco. Sure, you might find some real good leaf and you might think smoking a pipe makes you dead sexy and you might like the tactile stimulation you get from smoking/dipping/chewing. But when it comes right down to it you're doing it for the little lift and mood leveller that the nicotine gives you. To me, decaf makes about as much sense as Fleischman's or Night Train without booze.
Why punish your mouth like that?

Caffeine is the only universally accepted drug; a statement that will only be challenged when someone points out a place where caffeine is not allowed.

It takes hours for caffeine to leave your system, and even trace amounts will prevent you from entering the deepest, most restful sleep. So if you are having trouble sleeping, or always wake up tired, then avoid caffinated drinks after 4 pm. Drinking coffee because you are drowsy actually increases/continues your dependancy on it, not because of addiction, but because of its effects.

I'm not a coffee drinker, and this was the only mildly interesting thing I could post.

A Mormon tabernacle? Wherever stuck-up scene bitches congregate and brag about being "straight edge"? Around an anti-drug health freaknik like Sweaty Uncle Teddy?

King Gustav III of Sweden was convinced that coffee was poisoned so he set up an experiment where one prisoner serving a life sentence was sentenced to drink coffee every day and another to drink tea. A doctor was put in charge of the experiment to ensure its accuracy.

The first one to die was the doctor.
Then Gustav was assassinated.
Then the tea drinker died.
And some time later the coffee drinker decided to join them out of solidarity.

I've only been drinking coffee for about a year, and now that I work in a coffee shop I drink the stuff by the tonne. I personally dislike straight coffee like long blacks / americanos. Therefore I prefer Latte's, with some mocha / irish cream added.

I didn't used to drink coffee or tea. Exception of chinese tea cause its more of family thing. I am getting more used to tea with the occasional coffee. I am really fussy when I come drinking it. In being a good cup of coffee/tea, it has to be really hot and no sugar. Adding sugar spoils the flavour of a good "brew." Natural flavours. If I get a warm one, I would actually drink it but it doesn't have that long break affect. A good coffee/tea must be sipped not gulped. Some people I know said that things are hot which I said are not.

Maybe I used drinking hot things. Tend not to drink fizzy drinks or fruit juices very often. Its usually hot/cold water. Hot Chocolate as a treat but even that not perfect unless you make it yourself. People cheat by adding water to hot chocolate. Best way is to be just hot milk.

Hate tea. Tastes\smells like crap.
_____________________________________________
Coffein is bad, also nikotin. When someone is trying to stop smoking, he will do more damage to himself than cigarets. You must think i'm crazy, well i am. If that person allways think about smoking he will create depresion, wich is far more danger than the cigarets. One or two cigarets for day is kind of helthy.
Same thing with coffee.
About that experiment.... maybe it's just an accident... how can we be sure that the tea pricioner would live longer without tea?

That was kinda the point Dusan.

I've spent the last year or so going in cycles of getting addicted to coffee then going through withdrawals. I generally only drink coffee when I need a pick-me-up but if I'm going through a rough time (say, due to classes or homework) I'll drink too much and get dependant so that the only way I'll feel human is to have a coffee and I'll need two to actually feel good. So I'll force myself not to drink it for a couple of weeks until I feel better and then start the cycle again.

Not sure what you're asking, but I think it's whether 'kinda' is grammatically correct in that context. The answer is: not technically. But I feel confident enough in my English skills that I can use a lackadaisical style to increase the level of apparent sarcasm in my post.

EDIT: Was that a Dino post or what?

I like coffee, but it usually makes me feel worse than I already did in the mornings.

I love the chilled stuff, though! Chilled mocha frappucino.....yay!

I'm also fond of a nice cup of lemon honey tea!

I don't know what you mean by 'respect'. I would say 'biting, cynical sarcasm'.

Dino was a dick who wrote long-winded posts objecting to everything everyone else said and quibbling over minitae of pointless discussions.

I still maintain that he wasn't codek though...
