"Just one cup" by PortSherry

A colleague drinks coffee out of one of these bad boys:

He did have to switch to decaffeinated eventually, though.

A company doctor once asked me how much coffee I drank per day.

I said about 1 sometimes even 2.

"Good, good" he said. Starts saying that the max amount is 2 cups a day. It is bad to drink more than that because of the caffeine, or else your body will make too much adrenaline which in that case causes too much pressure on your muscles.

I quietly stared at him for a good 20 seconds and said: "cups? No no, I mean pots. I drink 1 to 2 pots a day...."

Well, his head almost exploded when he heard that.

20 seconds is a long ass time to be staring at a doctor 🤨
- Thats like fifteen bucks worth of staring

Tasted coffee the first time when I was 7.
Let's see, when will I taste it next time!

I'm 32.

Coffee is sort of like beer: the bitterness is way too strong for kids, but tolerable for adults.

Most people cut it with cream and sugar, but if you have a decent quality coffee it becomes easy to tolerate it black.
- I'm 37 and never really developed an appreciation for the bitter taste, so I'm neither a coffee drinker (not even the milk/sugar types) or a beer drinker; I also don't like dark chocolate. I've tried, but it just never became enjoyable.
- I don't understand why people are motivated to "learn to like" drinks that are not even good for us. Excessive sugar, caffeine, alchohol, cigars etc. all normalized to have a addiction to.
- Yeah I've understood the same thing, about changing the taste.
  
  Not that I do beer either.
- If you get really good coffee, you can get tasting notes like chocolate, cinnamon, almond, etc. and you won't need the creamer.

I used to drink five 24 oz. coffees from Wawa a day, and I thought nothing of it until I did the math and realized that's A FUCKING GALLON OF COFFEE. I now drink just one measured actual cup a day and it's nice. It turns out blinking once in a while has its advantages.

Also that friend who says they only have one tablespoon of peanut butter ..... who has actually turned it into an art to balance four ounces of peanut butter onto one spoon.

I will say once I started using caffeine every other day, or even every 3 days, I noticed a difference in the effectiveness. I still get headaches from lack of caffeine, but I feel the effects then I take it.

Weird. I had headaches practically every week back when I drinked coffee semi-regularly (1-2 times a week).

Around a year ago, I've stopped drinking coffee completely and switched to strong tea. Never felt so clear-minded and headaches are far less frequent then before, and if I have one - it's like 10% of it's usual strength.
- I don't drink coffee at home. At work I drank it because it was there. Every Sunday I had a headache. I've since quit coffee all together and I was surprised how clear it made my head. It also made me more awake because I don't drink it anymore.
  
  Now I sometimes drink it as a treat once a month or so. Never felt better.
I started using caffeine
