Things You Don't "Get"

On topic though. Coffee. I mean I drink the stuff. It's fine. But I don't depend on it medically in the morning like some and the taste doesn't make me all warm and fuzzy. Basically coffee is a way to get out of the office twice a day for fresh air and a chat. I never drink it at home.

That's because you drink that instant shit. That ain't coffee.

I don't. I go to a bloody fancy shop with the others who are actual junkies. What that has done has made me realise that instant is barely-flavoured water but it still hasn't given me a rubbery one for proper coffee. It just means it now costs me €4 a day to go for a chat.

I can take it or leave it, me.

it's mostly about the mug...

The conversation was about coffee, not freeze dried caffeinated granules. They don't even say coffee on the tins. :)

 

My grandmother considered "real" coffee to be the instant stuff. She recoiled in horror once when I offered her a freshly ground and brewed cup of Hawaiian Kona, the silly bird.

I don't get why so many people 'drink monster energy drink'. i tried it, didn't like it and I don't get why it's so popular.

This, but for Red Bull.

my theory:

 

if you are drinking monster red bull, then you must be needing to replenish a serious draw on your energy reserves

 

so you must have been having it large

 

so you must be recently back from doing something cool, like a marathon, or a rave, or base jumping, or landing that Hong Kong property deal

 

that is the 'image' of the branding and the message, the modern equivalent of fag advertising

 

whereas, in reality as I drive past the bus stop and see somebody drinking it, I just think 'chav'

home now, I can use my own coffee - that tastes of coffee, in a mug that just screams 'class'

yeah, local TV is really junk. As far as I can see, our local tv has two programmes

 

there's one programme where two women stand in a kitchen and talk about food

 

the other programme is repeats of some 10 year old driving instructor reality tv crap

 

I have a bad feeling the channel is receiving a grant that if you trace it back, started life as my money
