I think it show you are comfortable enough with your manhood.....oh wait, that's if a guy can wears a pink shirt...shows confidence. I am sure the same thing applies to drinking tea lol

Re: caffeine withdrawal...

All people do in the uk is drink tea. If theres a big emergency, everyone hase a cup of tea and then smiles again? Never understood it myself.

Its strange behavour if you ask me.

If you dont drink tea here in uk, people point at you and scretch like in the film with the pod people!!!

Edit: invasion of the body snatchers.................

In the Netherlands, all fratboys and sorority girls wear pink. IMO all those boys are sexually insecure, and the girls too. Must be to pretend confidence then...

Re: caffeine withdrawal...

why are you cutting yourself off caffeine anyways? two cups a day is ok, anything more than that starts to become bad for you...

i'm all about the coffee (the canadians on the board all know how addictive tim horton's coffee is).

Re: caffeine withdrawal...

I personally am not a fan of Tim Horton's coffee, but it is convenient seeing as there is one on almost every other corner.

I prefer starbucks coffee....and a regular coffee is only like 50 cents more then a Timmies....if they had a drive through I would be in heaven!

Re: caffeine withdrawal...

According to Ska you don't have the 'snackbar' as we have it in the USA? Those coffee corners are mushrooming here, and coffeerooms too, but they're quite new around these parts..

see, i find both starbucks and second cup coffee to be really bitter...and overpriced. 50 cents adds up fast when you buy two a day, every day.

Re: caffeine withdrawal...

^^ lol, ya that would add up fast

Yao - never heard of Snackbar.....it is kind of like a Starbucks or cheaper?

Damn, so thats why my freakin head hurts.. ICED Tea here. Strait. No sugar or flavors. Bitter and ICed. oh yeah.

By the way, Hallo to all. New to MS/MN. Not new to the interweb. haha. ./lates/see_ya/caffine_intake_time.rpm

Re: caffeine withdrawal...

nah, it's not even a brand name. It's a certain kind of place where you can buy snacks and fries, but really small. They usually don't even sell coffee there, but this thread kinde reminded me of what Ska said about that.

We don't have starbucks here i believe...there's one chain, but i forgot the name. Love their coffee though, you can get all kinds of flavours...heaven for the real coffee lover :d

Pretty weird though, since this country is know for it's love for good coffee! My mate sometimes makes us a nice cup of Cuban coffee: he grinds the beans in a special little grinder and uses and old type of coffeemachine (it's not a machine, so don't know how to name it): reservoir in the bottom, filter with coffee in the middle, and coffeepot on top. Heating will cause the water to go up through the filter (through a thin tube) and then spill over into the upper reservoir...man that stuff tastes good!

BTW..it's the perculator or colador I'm talking about that he uses. In the model he uses, the water doesn't boil, so the taste is pretty damn good...

Welcome!!! Nice to meet ya. Caffeine rules :RockOn: :HungOver:

Actually there used to be a club out on Long Island named Caffeine. It was kind of a shithole but they used to have some legendary post-rave afterhours till noon on Sundays. It was a pretty cracked-out affair, but they had a good system and some of the best local DJs used to throw down some really massive sets on those occasions. Ahhh, I'll never remember those days....

Re: caffeine withdrawal...

lol @ Hulkhuss & 3D_1200...

No it was real coffee, and...I don't really smoke pot, so I don't really go to any coffeeshops. Stupid name for such a place anyway, but who am I? heheheh..

#517391Post 26 of 39

Re: caffeine withdrawal...

stovetop for the coffee? That's usually a great way to go, and over here they make them more so for capp's & espresso's...

Got a stovetop Capp (those new Mukka's)...those things make a pretty nice cup of cap..:)

Re: caffeine withdrawal...

Yao you are pretty much all over the place....:lol:

I don't know what Joe told you about "snackbars" but I have only seen them in themeparks, stadiums etc.... Starbucks are EVERYWHERE. Snackbars are nowhere.

The method you are talking about is called a "Press" or "coffee press". Its an older technique making a comeback.

Re: caffeine withdrawal...

@ Palmer & FM:

Yup...Stovetops...didn't know that was it's name in English. And hell yes it tastes really good...I should have one lying around in my parental house somewhere, it was given to me by my host family on a stay in Italy. I hope I can find it back and use it, it's so much fun making coffee with it in the morning. Makes you wake up really slow and easy :D

...lots of cream, lots of sugar...

and on that note:

Knock if off, Jules, okay? Don't tell me how good my coffee is... I'm the one that buys it, I know how good it is. When Bonnie goes shopping, she buys shit. When I go shopping I buy the fancy gormet shit because I want to taste it. But you know what's on my mind right now? It ain't the coffee that's in my kitchen....
