    Hmm, maybe it’s time to buy a DC-3, hang a couple of maxed-out turbines on it and put some compartments under the floor. I’ll be the Han frickin’ Solo of the coffee industry.

    That’s why I drink diet…hopefully the brain damage won’t be severe as quickly.

    Oh no! Not coffee. Time to hit Costco to stock up.
    4 boxes of coffee under the tree for me.

    Never had a cup of coffee in my life - just tea. Weird, I know.

    You could always filter the used TP…coffee tastes like **** anyway.

    Same here. I stay away from addictive substances. I don't need anything to ''get me going in the morning''. Or any other time of the day.

    Clever marketing ... announce a coming shortage so consumers flock to buy all they can at an elevated price ... :D

    So another price increase is on the way. Coffee inflation comes around every couple of years

    I've never had coffee. When I was a kid, someone said "it's an acquired taste", which translated to me like a PITA, so I never did it. Same with Scotch. Tea, Pepsi or whatever else with caffeine in it? Yep. I don't get the dew, though. Looks too much like anti-freeze to me.

    Same with cigarettes. My dad told me that I should try it and see if I liked it. One inhaled drag and it was clear to me that I didn't, and I never smoked a cigarette either. I like the smell of coffee and even like the taste in some foods, but cigarette smell and cigarette smoke always evoke an avoidance response for me.
