A Thread For Coffee.

[Marroe]

this morning I had some fresh ground BLACK cofee at work. which I rarely drink it black, so I figure this is the only reason I'm still awake:D

Right now some franch vanilla cafe instant stuff...you gotta use about half the can for any kinda taste, but after that, it aint bad!

Oh, you mean that stuff that is mostly sugar with a bit of non dairy creamer and maybe some coffee mixed in, if they feel like it.

Yeah! That stuff...ya know, it's actually really good if you use it AS a creamer...

I was out of coffee one day(GASP,WHEEZE,GULP)
and I had that stuff....but the good thing was-I got a sugar buzz.
I was so GROUCHY that day.

oh and yeah,it is a great flavoring for black coffee.

ok,so,not a big fan of chocolate-but apparently will eat it when around.
We have bags and bags of 'fun size' chocolate bars.
And I have been putting a couple in my coffee.

3 musketeers
butterfinger
kitkat
&reese's peanut butter cups
are very very good melted into your coffee.

I guess since I started-I HAVE to try ALL the little fun size flavors....you know,out of research and stuff.

Man! That is weird! But not THAT weird. I would do it. In fact I may go down to the store...it is about time to get those Fun Bars for me to eat...I mean, for the trick or treaters to eat.

A friend of mine used to do a thing called "jam coffee"--he would go to a diner with his buddies and they would mix different flavors of jam into their coffee. Strawberry was most popular. I tried it once and called them all crazy.

[novakru]

I didn't put all the different brands in at the same time..... each brand name went in seperately.
I have a 12 cup coffee pot to get thru...I have ooodles of test cups to savor...I mean Investigate....Scientifically.

and Jam?
*shudder*

Caffeine or Cocaine?

Caffeine also increases dopamine levels in the same way that amphetamines do (heroine and cocaine also manipulate dopamine levels by slowing down the rate of dopamine re-uptake). Dopamine is a neurotransmitter that, in certain parts of the brain, activates the pleasure center. Obviously, caffeine's effect is much lower than heroin's, but it is the same mechanism. It is suspected that the dopamine connection contributes to caffeine addiction.

Dude, whoa, slow down there, why do you...why did you have to spoil it like that. We were just talking about having a nice cup of coffee. Well, eleven or twelve of them. But that's beside the point! What an UGLY picture that is. What is that picture of, anyway?
