Metal coffee shop anyone? I think we could give Starbucks a run for their money.

AND SCREEEEAM FOR YOUR CREEEEAM!

I REALLY like Folgers Columbian Roast. It is some strong shit for being a shelf brand, canned deal. It smells like cat piss when it's brewing.

That's why we switched to Maxwell House for our "daily" brew.

On weekends (and when we feel like it), we'll drink fresh-ground, usually flavored (hazelnut!) coffee. There's a coffee place in Tenn. (Raphael's Coffee) that does small-batch roasting, great flavoring, and the price is no more than mail ordering other coffee (since the local stores only carry Whorebucks as an "exotic brand", we mail order any non-mass-produced coffee).

Dunkin' Donuts coffee is actually pretty good - if you brew it yourself. The DD stores around here are all owned by Third-World inhabitants that I *swear* use the grounds more than once for each pot. And if you ask for milk/cream in it, they put so much you get warm brown half and half

I'm not addicted to coffee - I'll live if I don't get a cup in the morning. But I do enjoy it!

Since anytime I travel a long distance I like to drive at night, coffee is the drink of choice. One jumbo cup of joe, one 20oz. Jolt (with extra sugar AND caffeine) and I'm good for an all-nighter.

Coffee? Eh, maybe once or twice a year I'll drink it. I can drink it black with no problem, but I like it a little better with milk and sugar. I prefer tea, but I rarely drink that either.

Of course, I'd rather have BEER - but most employers frown on that sort of thing. And there's not a lot of good breakfast beers out there anyway.

Breakfast beers... now there's an idea!

[Ben...]

Does anyone else hate Starbucks? I'm guessing Warpig does. I sure do. Tastes like a pot that's been left on for 6ish hours and is gross black or with cream and sugar. Tim Horton's has really good coffee, tea, and hot chocolate. I work on the same lot as a Tim Horton's so I eat there whenever I have 8 hour shifts. 5 bucks gets you a coffee/pop, a doughnut and a sub sandwich. Plus there's boxes of 20 Timbits for $2.50 so I usually pick one up once a week.

I'm within 150 Yards of a starbucks here at the shop and still don't go. I'd rather drink re-brewed grounds than give them 5 bucks for something that tastes like my socks and a server that has the same personality. Besides you stand in line behind some yuppy that takes 30 minutes to decide what flavor they want and if they wanted shaken or stirred. There is a little independent coffee shop in the historic district here that isn't too bad and there is one about 4 blocks away that bring their house instruments to me to be serviced.

Why Ben, whatever gave you THAT idea?

Yeah I agree with ADTGuitars - overpriced, overbrewed, too long to wait... that's why we do the home brew. For the price of two cups of coffee at Whorebucks, I can buy a whole pound of fresh-roasted.

If there was a Tim Horton's here, I'd go there. I've heard nothing but good things about the place. Unfortunately, the only one I know of is in Scarborough Maine, which is about seven hours away...

Geez you won't drive 7 hours for coffee.. might as well switch to decaf...

[WarPig]

Geez you won't drive 7 hours for coffee.. might as well switch to decaf...

I suppose I *could* make a career of driving to Tim Horton's:

7 hours there,
+ 1 hour to enjoy some coffee and baked goods,
+ 7 hours back,
+ 2 hours to calm down from having to drive on some of the most congested, a-hole driver infested roads in the Northeast,
+ 0.5 hour in the crapper (catching up on reading material),
+ 0.5 hour to fall asleep,
+ 6 hours sleep,
____
24 hours...

...then up and back on the road for my next cup.

Shoot me now.:ROTF:

Breakfast beers... now there's an idea!

Bud is a good breakfast beer. I wouldn't touch it otherwise - but for a "before Noon" brew it's just light enough and sweet enough to fit the ticket. Coors is another good "start-your-day-off-right" beverage.

Note: Kids, do not try this at home! Breakfast drinking was done on a closed course, using professional drinkers.
[That's somewhat the truth: the Bud was at a Polish wake, downing pitchers at 10 in the morning; the Coors was on some of our wilder camping trips on the Outer Banks of North Carolina].

" You wan't your coffee black, black or black?"

It's the Henry Ford approach to coffee for the masses. "You can have any color you want so long as it's black." Seemed to work well enough for him. You might be on to something! :idea:

Or as in the movie Airplane,

"I like my coffee like I like my women... Black."

A coffee shop that only serves black coffee, and only plays Black Metal over the PA

Don't quote me, but surely the scene was:

Young Boy with Coffee: "Excuse me, I happened to be passing, and I thought you might like some coffee."

Little Girl: "Oh, that's very nice of you, thank you." [takes coffee]
Little Girl: "Oh, won't you sit down?"

Young Boy with Coffee: "Cream?"

Little Girl: "No, thank you, I take it black, like my men."

And please don't call me Shirley

You sir are correct, I guess my memory is failing...:think:
