The Case for Bad Coffee

[SpeedTchr]

Softening a pint of ice cream, so I can eat it right away (about 15 seconds)

Softening ice cream? Get in the gym, you pencil neck! Ice cream shouldn't be softened. The firmer, the better. Otherwise, just have a glass of milk before mommy tucks you in for nighty-night.

I frequently pour a cup of coffee and promptly forget it's there for a few hours. I'm not wasting that ****.

The cup in front of me now was poured at 6:45 this morning. Just microwaved it for a minute and it's fine.

One of the gifts we gave players at one of our championships earlier this year was a tall Yeti coffee mug. I make a morning cup before work at 7:30 and it stays piping hot until I'm done with it at 10 or so. Best damn thing we've given out this year.

 

[MisterCreosote]

This is my last straw with you.

Off topic, but I feel obligated to Like any The Big Lebowski reference. It's become a chore, really. If I were a weaker man, I'd nuke and start over with a different handle. The crosses I bear, I guess...

Where I work, coffee is available all time time, and we use a cold liquid concentrate -- essentially an overly saturated cold brew -- dispensed automatically from a machine. Two teaspoons for every 12 ounces of water, 300 cups per box.

Great coffee? No. But every cup tastes the same as the last and there is no waste. And other than cleaning it and occasionally changing the box, I never have to think about it.

The downside: The dispensers have the name emblazoned on the face. FOLGERS.

Shut the **** up, Donny.

I don't even like coffee, and yet I read this whole thread. ****.

 

[Cosmo]

****.

Lots of bad coffee will help you do that, too.

You got my address? Hook a brother up, I love those things. A lot.

Will have to see if we have any left in the back ... you never know.

Was thinking Bustelo or Melita is definitely better than Maxwell House and is not a lot more expensive. I can drink any coffee or any beer. Doesn't seem like the real good coffee is as expensive as some of the real good craft beers though.

I'm going to challenge you on the any beer part.

Go buy a six pack of Wild Blue, made by AmBev so you should be able to find it. See if you can get through one without having buyer's remorse of having five more to go.

 

[cjericho]

Will get that and definitely finish one. If it's the bad I'll bring it to softball on Sunday and the cheap ****s who never bring any can drink it.

Exactly what I was going to recommend - softball. LOL.

It didn't even occur to me that I could use coffee to bribe the moderating team until now.

Well, I was speaking of one of those Yeti things. But coffee works, too. Intelligentsia AND a Yeti? Dude, you'd be so in

Be specific. How much extra leeway would I get?

OK, this Cafe Bustelo thing has me in a quandary.

If you enjoy something but stop enjoying it because it has become too popular - that is a sign of being a hipster.
But what if you enjoy something but find out hipsters like it, too. If that diminishes your enjoyment - what does that say about you?

I'm on the horns of an enema.
