I wish this thread was more wanky and self-righteous. Just once I wanna see “I don’t like coffee” followed by “lmao you stupid bitch you don’t understand the artistry that goes into growing even a single coffee bean like do you know anything about the evolutionary history of rubiaceae plants jesus christ i need to put this entire thread on ignore lest I never feel joy again,”
the one socially accepted addiction wait never mind alcoholism sometimes, but it's crazy how needing a high dosage of a drug to function is just considered a normal part of adult life under capitalism
I don't care for coffee. I'm all about tea. All I wanted last weekend was my hot cinnamon tea. It's only sold at two coffee shacks here that I know of. First one gave me the wrong tea because they thought I said London fog??? And then a few days later as soon as I got back to Oregon I tried ordering it from Dutch Bros and they were out of stock. V unimpressed. Also I don't think many ppl order tea because a good portion of the time the baristas appear confused how to make it which.......... ???
I have three of these cannisters sitting on my desk rn. I have a whole bin of different teas but only ever rly drink this. Love it. It's like Big Red gum in liquid form. Fave part of my day is steeping it and smelling the cinnamon and instantly relaxing I hate iced tea tho. An abomination I won't touch.
I love coffee but I never understood the people that say they need it or they’re an asshole in the morning. The whole “don’t talk to me until I’ve had my coffee” is such bad vibes.
I don’t need coffee to not be an asshoole, but my head does hurt if I don’t have it. I just enjoy a hot beverage on a cold Philly morning
My own alcohol problems were wine mom-ish. I was sitting at home working (I work from home) drinking glasses of whiskey, wasn't partying or getting wasted but I was always tipsy, but it was okay because I mean work's terrible am I right?! Almost 10 months sober now
Wine Momunknown A middle-aged female (usually a mother) who enjoys drinking a refined, complex red or white wine most likely bought from Whole Foods with her other middle-aged female friends while exchanging neighborhood gossip. Common topics during this odd ritual include but are not limited to: annoying children, idiotic husbands, fundraisers for an elementary or middle school, that one neighbor who enjoys starting drama, and other neighbors who choose not to maintain their lawn. Wine mothers also tend to post their gatherings on Facebook. Brenda: Sharon, would you like to join us this evening? We're drinking your favorite! Sharon: Of course! You know, Martin won't be home tonight, but the kids will be fine. Brenda: Oh Sharon, you are such little spit-fire! I admire your courage and spontaneous attitude. Brenda's emo daughter: Ugh, you guys are such wine moms.
Thank you! And I guess my unpopular general opinion is that what I'm feeling is probably VERY common and that I think people in my generation should probably look at their own relationships with alcohol but I don't wanna say that cuz I don't want anyone to feel judged, I legitimately don't want to judge what anyone else does and refuse to do so, not trying to have interventions here hahaha. I just think that people let themselves go in too deep without taking time to make decisions for themselves on what their limits need to be. I'd like to see potential alcoholism be stopped before it becomes that I guess
When I worked at Starbucks people used this as an excuse to be a huge dick to me all the time and I was like ????
