Hello Lizards, What type of coffee do you all like to drink? I thought we could make a thread about the different types of coffee available, recommendations for good coffee, and memories associated with the beverage. This can also relate to tea as well, if you like.
I pretty much drink coffee every morning, 3-4 cups of the stuff. I also drink it at night, but I use decaffeinated coffee. I quite like Tassimo coffee, as it has a good bitter taste. I think a lot of normals associate coffee with a morning rush to the slave factory, and that is what caught on in popular culture. I have begun to associate it with the lizard lifestyle; sitting down, thinking, enjoying anime, etc. There were many times when my passion for a good brew kept me from wanting to jump out of a window or hang myself, and times when it helped warm me up from a cold winter day. I have even read a book on the subject a few years ago, it was called "Uncommon Grounds."
I think my best memory associate with coffee is when, in high school, I skipped class one Thursday; I just walked out of the building and went home. I didn't want to take a test, so I went home and watched anime for hours in peace, and drank coffee. The next day I overslept, but realized that there was a snowday due to really awful conditions, and I got to warm up with more coffee.

>>854I have a pretty big imagination, and I pretend that coffee is my potion. I brew the "potion" and drink it to cure depression or get back some HP after a "fight." I like it because it feels as if I'm doing something in the morning and not being too lazy, yet you can't really fuck up coffee. I also like the fact that coffee is an isolation drink, so nobody can bitch at me for staying at home "and not being social bro." It's one of those hidden pleasures of the normalcattle world that us lizrds can enjoy in the /b/urrow, in peace.
>>855How cheap is cheap? I'm running low on cash, and would like to know the brand.

I prefer the taste of coffee that has been ground and sitting stale for months. It's nostalgic. It reminds me of camping with my family when we would only have really old canned coffee.
I've heard that your 'taste' for coffee has a lot to do with the first kind you ever had. It would make sense why my taste is so off, then, if it is true.

I don't usually drink coffee. It makes me feel hot and irritable like that feeling when you're dehydrated or have had too little sleep. When I do drink it, it's my dad's Cafe Du Monde black or with condensed milk or a random cup of Starbucks my mom bought for me. I've just chewed on it before too. I do have coffee candy sometimes. Coffee is something I use sparingly. I read a manga featuring exclusively cofee-related scenarios. A watery cup of Joe like that offered at my workplace is no good.
I usually drink OJ if I need a pick me up. I also drink green tea sometimes.
>>856Very ritualistic of you.
I bet it's Folgers lol.

>>858>>860https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00I8GC9E8/?tag=ybdig-20I actually drink Maxwell House, as I can usually get a monthly can of it for $5.00 or less, if my mother cares to purchase it. She used to threaten to "cut me off" unless I stopped NEETing, and I once went for about 6 months without it in protest. It all worked out, though what they say is true. I developed really bad headaches, hard to fall asleep and wake up, hard to concentrate, etc.
I don't really like alcohol, because I think it makes me feel strange and too aggressive. It's like a poisoned potion, no good for wizards.

>>856Damn you make it sound even more appealing, my imagination tends to be very inward so I hardly think of physical things around me much, except in terms of a set.
Hope you enjoy your potions liz.

>>860I was referring more to the quality baseline. Store brand is a mixed bag because it's a generic so depending on the supplier you'll probably get something better for your money than Folgers.
Does anyone here drink Ovaltine?
I'm not black. No.876
McDonald's coffee when I go out, sometimes with one of their pastries, and Nescafe whenever I'm a home or work.
I usually drink three cups a day during the weekdays and one cup on the weekend.
