"COFFEE"

Postby gator » Tue Jun 29, 2010 4:07 pm

been kinda mulling over this in my head for a few weeks now. due to the pisspoor economy, they've taken our floor coffee (community house) away from us. i, myself, am a coffee drinker....black, that's it.

well, for a few weeks i spent my money on some coffee.......and, every nurse, doc, janitor, bleeder, patient, etc etc, took advantage of my good nature, mooching off me, never NEVER offering to help w/ any of it........so, i cut them off. we've got a "cups" down stairs and a "starbucks" too, so i'm golden......

i prefer to drink cups stuff b/c the folks are friendly (methodist rehab has the cups, UMC has the starbucks, you figure it out) and the coffee ain't half bad.....

except, i sometimes wonder if it's worth the wait at around 8 o'clock. now, i'm discounting women, b/c they are supposed to drink stupid junk like latte mochas, frappee's, tiacha's.....whatever.

BUT, i'll say this:

-if you are drinking black coffee, either medium or dark roast, odds are you played a real sport like football or baseball, or maybe ex-military, at the very least, no one's ever told you to hand your man card in, and like to eat meat.

-if you add creamer and sugar, odds are, you watched alot of the golden girls, skip the ranch dressing for the "low fat" vinegrette, and eat chicken at a steak house.

-if you drink the "flavored" stuff like "blueberry muffin" coffee, you are a vegetarian, enjoy a rousing match of soccer, get pedicures and someone's probably accused you of being metrosexual.

-if you drink the stuff that takes a recipe book and 15 minutes out of the poor girl making 7 bucks/hr day, and has names like "blondie", "el diablo", "ice peanut butter mocha", etc.............you're queer.

that is all, gator

I agree one hunnered percent. You may never sucked one but you probably held it in your mouth for a while.

sorry about the mooches. Good cup of joe with friends is better than strong whiskey sometimes. sometimes.

I feel ya. I typically have some pretty choice word for people who insist on buying Maxwell House or Folgers as well. I am a devout Community drinker--black-- savoring the essence of the bean. Do yourself a favor, if you already haven't, and try the Community--Columbia Blend.

8 O'Clock coffee at my house,ground extra fine, straight up. Black and Strong, just like deltaduckman's women! Coffee should be coffee, if you want a milkshake, go to McDonalds. If you're queer, go to Starbucks.

I can't believe "soccer" isn't mentioned in any of those defini ----- oh wait, there it is.

My Paw-in-law takes it black, but brewed about 1/10th as strong as normal. Where does he stand? I already know the answer, so I'll use this to assess your coffee drinker smarts.

Betty White was hot back in the day, I like most any dressing, and I want the biggest cut of beef on the menu served medium rare.
I am an Albanian though so I guess that's the exception you forgot to add. :mrgreen:

coffee - black for me too & agree that community is hard to beat. but does it have to be fresh for you real coffee drinker menz?
what i'm saying is i make a pot every morning in my office & if something happens that
pulls me away (which is most of the time), I have no problem nuking a cup from that morning
pot as late as 7 or 8 hours later. anyone else do that?

nothing wrong with that. do that all the time. as long as it's black and hot, it's okay.

I can't figure out how some people drink "iced coffee".
Never assume.
