vram74 Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 Start with a XL DD coffee w/cream on the way to work and get 3-4 more during the day. I know I shouldn't, but there is also a couple cans of Pepsi or coke mixed in there somewhere. I force water down my throat when not drinking the other stuff.

"Crowing" on the other hand is him saying your boastful. I try not to form a decision on a single post from anyone, but after a few dozen posts a pretty good picture of who they are begins to emerge. Wow! What an auspicious start? I created my account on this forum a mere 4 hours ago, replied to one thread, and so far I have been told that I have demonstrated: - crowing/boasting - piety/asceticism Now I am being advised that within my first dozen or so posts a decision will be made to provide a pretty good picture of who I am? Is this how all newbies are treated? Or, only the ones who share a life experience? How does this post count toward the picture of who I am? Six down. How many more to go? Momma Mia, Mea Culpa. Ha ha. It's all good. Edited July 1, 2018 by Number Six Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTMac Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 You know what caffeinated beverage I miss? Barq's root beer. I stopped drinking it after I gained access to sodas with real sugar. I just can't stand the corn syrup stickiness any more. If only I could get the old recipe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it has been said many times before, and will be repeated many times again, it is oftentimes somewhat difficult to interpret the meanings of the words written on the internet without the visual clues offered during a face-to-face conversation. That problem will probably be solved when all forum posting is done via Skype or some future iteration of Skype? Maybe this thread is my sign from God that I need some caffeine? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I completed overlooked and ignored his use of the word "crowing" in his post since it did not apply. Therefore, it do not offend me since I knew it was not true. His use of the word "piety" was also not true but that was what I chose to ask him to explain. Edited July 1, 2018 by Number Six Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fnfalman Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 The only time I’d drink coffee is if it’s vietnanese style and served by bikini-clad oriental chicks. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmohme Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 (edited) I used to drink a lot of Coke, but gave it up some years back. Now I can't even stand to take a sip of it. When at home, i start the day by brewing about three cups with freshly ground beans in a French press. I am the only one in the house that drinks coffee, so all three cups are for me! When on the road for work, I will live in my RV and the press is just not practical for, so I do my morning coffee in a Keurig. The coffee out of it is just not up to the task, so I give it a boost with the cold brew that I make ahead of time and bring along. When done correctly, my cold brew is strong enough to make your hair tingle! Edited July 1, 2018 by jmohme 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ivanwi11iams Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 I don't drink coffee, so I get a little from my tea; PG Tips. The funny thing is, I stopped drinking coffee for a week, to see if it had any effect on how I felt in the morning. It didn't, I haven't bothered since. And, that was 5 years ago. Now, the trick is for me to do the same with bread. But, I can't see that happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KILLERtj Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 1 gas station coffee on work days will do for me. Used to have a bad energy drink habit! Messed with my body and cost a lot of money. Currently, losing weight and realizng I'm needing less caffeine. KILLERtj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustMelissa Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 Tea.. hot and iced. Sometimes I make iced tea in the morning from hot tea. I'm learning to drink coffee.. I like cold brew with heavy cream or the nitros. Kinda like I like my beers.. hate it to taste bitter. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sticks Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 (edited) I've been drinking Folgers coffee since the mid 60s. Sometime in the 70s, I switched to Folgers instant coffee crystals. Happen to be drinking a cup right now. Edited July 1, 2018 by sticks to edit 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
