That a large McDonald's coffee is $1.00 and decent. I can spare $5.00 a week.

I'd rather not be a caffeine zombie
Just fix your sleep schedule and you'll have the maximum energy for the whole day without liquid black jew

The lack of coffee seems to have made you stupid

Wagie, Wagie, did your best,
Wagie, Wagie, get some rest.
Bed is comfy, pillow's cool,
Work is hard and life is cruel.
Soft, descend to thoughtless sleep,
Freedom in the darksome deep...
...
Wakie! Wakie! End of breakie!
Life is here, and come to take ye!
Ring! — Ring! — Ring! ye back
To your dreary rented shack—
Not-a-home, with not-a-garden,
Here he waits his prisoner's pardon:
From the workhouse to be taken,
From this awful dream awaken—
Not today, and not tomorrow,
Will he 'scape the wagie's sorrow.
Off to work, then, all a flurry,
Getting dressed up in a hurry,
Starts the car, then in reverse,
Onward rolls the shabby hearse.
How can Wagie prick his heart
Full to bear each workday's smart?
Why won't Wagie just die off?—He
Stops each morning for a coffee.

I wish the caffeine jew worked effectively on me. I get all my hours of sleep, eat well, workout, and feel good, but damn I wish I got that instant rush of energy that most people got from caffeine it would help sometimes. Any other anons like this? It's not like I'm some recovering caffeine addict either, I probably have one or two cups a coffee a month simply because I like the taste. I've tested myself and drank some pre-workouts and I didn't feel much but it did affect my heart rate I didn't notice till I measured it, and it was like 195BPM and I was just fucking standing around and didn't feel anything.

It's more expensive to make your own coffee.

If your Coffee has ore than 100 calories its not coffee

>>17883667
And waiting in line everyday is better? fuck that I just skip that and go straight for caffeine pills

>>17883667
>>coffee grounds
I can grab a 2.5 lbs bag of whole bean coffee for under $15 from my local place.
>>filters
Buy a 500 or great pack from Amazon. Or, by like my grandmother and use cheesecloth.
>>coffee machine
You can purchase a Mr. Coffee auto drip unit for under $25 at Target. Probably less than $20 from an online retailer.
>>cups
You're a cheap faggot.
>>cream
Why? You have milk if you need to add dairy.
>>raw sugar
You're on /ck/ and you don't have sugar available? Or you need sugar in your coffee?
>>butter scotch flavoring

These are things that numales or women demand in their falsely labeled "coffee". You're simply making excuses on why you're such a cheapass bastard. Get off /ck/ and better yourself.

>not a single valid rebuttal

I do not envy your cardboard palate. That is all.

>>17883218
Just buy caffeine pills or speed. It's way cheaper and less time consumimg.

>>17883218
I make my own coffee.

It's instant though, because fuck doing more than the bare minimum first thing in the morning before I've had my caffeine.

>>17883965
Anon, you are perhaps the biggest loser outside of anyone that posts on /v/ I've met.
You want a rebuttal. How about this?
You're on /ck/ and you proudly proclaim that it is expensive to make your own coffee. This demonstrates your laziness and how you only wrote out your post to troll others.
Look, you dislike coffee? Fine.
Yet you want to dilute something with a shit-ton of sugars and other flavors because that is the only way you can drink it? That is nothing more than you having no tastebuds and being the meme of a hot sauce numale.
Do you need sugar, dairy, and other shit when you drink tea, water, or pop? If so, this shows that have the palate of a faggot. Someone who cannot enjoy a beverage in its base form.

>>17884008
Do not need. Want. In conclusion, the best coffee actually works out cheaper if you buy it made and you can never change that fact.

Literally just made a fine cuppa.
Just put the pod in the machine and presto

>>17883667

>>17883218
I don't have a very expensive espresso machine.

but, at the same time, I don't buy coffee either, because stores don't have expensive espresso machines either.

I only buy coffee if I'm in Italy. Maybe Turkey. For the other 99,99% of situations I just chug a couple redbulls.

>>17883666
patrician coffee enjoyers drink coffee just because, and it's normal for coffee enjoyers to be able to take a comfy nap after two espresso. So don't worry anon. Only normies feel pumped from caffeine.

>paying for coffee

tell me you are a beta faggot without doing it

>>17883667
Frappuccinos aren’t coffee you homo

>>17883218
It helps keep the economy afloat.
(FTR I earn $120k a year)

>>17884476
that being said tho it does have a noticeable effect that I enjoy tho. so if it doesn't for you I'm sorry. it's nowhere near the crack that normies make it up to be tho. and I used to drink 8 redbulls a day, 4 of which in the morning. drinking that much caffeine is stupid tho.

for me a coffee is like the opposite of a beer, in effect and strength.

>>17884491
>tfw I used "tho" 4 times in one post
end me.

>>17884476
>Only normies feel pumped from caffeine.
uou shouldn't feel amped up, just a little more fresh and ready to go

>>17883218
I get coffee at the free coffee shop at work because I have a real job

>>17883218
>dude just grind beans for 10 minutes and then wait for it to drip for 30 more every morning
no thanks I'll live life instead

>>17883218
i've been drinking coffee for months using the same value gallon drum of cheap shit and it tastes fine because i make cold brew out of it

>>17883218
>soyak
Holy shit. Someone actually pronunct it correctly

>>17885205
yeah, it's a mild effect just as one single beer is a mild but opposide effect. I am a pretty huge caffeine abuser and only a handful of times have I felt actually "wired", and a couple of handfull of times actually significantly "tea drunk". It's just a mild enjoyable buzz is all that it should be. Take it from me, high-dosing caffeine is not fun at all. It's meant to be consumed in moderately high amounts at most.

>>17884024
>he best coffee actually works out cheaper if you buy it made
no it isn't dumbfuck

>>17885215
idk it kinda sounds like you have a fake laptop job

>>17883218
I don't drink coffee, so I don't buy it or make it?

>>17885249
>Take it from me, high-dosing caffeine is not fun at all. It's meant to be consumed in moderately high amounts at most.
wrong. read ray peat. caffeine is anti-estrogenic (in addition to other health benefits) and should be consumed in large quantities

>>17885254
It's definitely a gay fake software job. They also serve breakfast it's pretty good.

>>17885270
nice. if I had a job like that I'd buy a kiyoshi kato knife

>>17885266
high-caffeine feels bad even if you are accustomed to it. meaning the effects are dose dependent and the advantages don't increase proportionally to the dose. it depends what you mean by alot tho, because your bullshit low quality coffee filter coffee might be lower in caffeine than you'd expect. many normies that "drink a lot of coffee!!" would probably have heart palpitaions after two cans of monster.

>>17883667
You lost me with everything under raw sugar

>>17883666
I've also been a "nap after two espresso" kinda guy my whole life. Found out I got energy from green tea after someone gifted me some and I started drinking it in the morning, but it's not a sudden rush, just the realization that it's 4PM and you're not tired at all.

Yes, I don't like drinking course drinks

>>17883218
If I felt up to the task of brewing coffee I wouldn't need coffee. Except when I'm just trying to make a poo then I make my own.

>>17883218
This is how it's supposed to be pronounced btw, söyjak is the wrong version

>>17883218
I actually go to cafes for the cafe environment because it's comfy. only every once in a while. also I get to judge the establishments for the quality of the beans, technique, and syrups. I don't order flavoring if I see Torani bottles beyond the machine.

>>17883218
I'm a busy man I don't have time to make coffee when I can just buy the best coffee in the market and have a wageslave like you make it for me just the way I like it while I get richer by the minute

>>17883416
No. My black girl crush works at the post office, which is my excuse for writing to my grandmother every week.

What's comfy about that?

>>17886466
Hard to explain to somebody with misophonia. Silence isn't the only comfortable atmosphere.

I don't make coffee every day but i have homemade coffee every day. I seldom-to-never buy coffee out, maybe once every few years.

>>17886466
it just is comfy. I get that autists who hate sound (no offense meant, I've known some pretty based autists irl) would hate it but it's pretty nice to normal people

>>17886466
I like the warm lighting, coffee smell, and the noises all together. I take the time to write notes so I usually tune it out anyway.

I only go to Dunkin Donuts for coffee because on Monday they give you extra points if you order on the app so I get a 4-5 dollar cold brew or whatever with all the whipped cream and shit for free the next time I go

Because my local place is based.

>>17885399
Checked, lol.

I am physically incapable of making a coffee before I've had my morning coffee

90% of the time I just drink tea, decaf after noon.
When I get coffee, it's a treat. I literally don't even own a coffee maker I have it so rarely.
So when I do have it, I don't mind dropping ~$4 for someone else to make me a nice drink.
It's pretty dumb if you drink it regularly - I'd never pay for tea like that, and the tea I make at home's better anyway.
But as an occasional thing - like al fast food should be - it's fine.
And if you're so poor that ~$4 every other week will break the bank, maybe stick to tap water...

>>17890411

I'll give you that
There's this local cafe that used to be a real estate office
They didn't change the layout or any of the furniture, it's fun sitting in a nice comfy chair with a big expensive desk to drink a coffee and have a muffin

I do sometimes make coffee with a french press etc but it never comes out that nice

>>17883218
I take caffeine pills and I've taken all enjoyment out of the process. Its cheap though.

>>17883666

Here's how to use a coffee machine: put coffee grounds in the basket part, put water in the reservoir part and press the fucking button, you goddamn imbecile.

I'm the target demographic.
Productive people either don't need coffee or make their own (at home, probably on a timer).

>>17891491

>>17891396
Maybe I'm not urban enough to enjoy cafes.

>>17891396
I dislike competing noises. The non stop talking, it's a wave of voices. Imagine Bees in a hive but human voices at so many different levels. Just shut the fuck up cunts.

Coffee is such a pretentious menu item that it's like they should have a food television show dedicated to the gayest barista with the most foggiest drink ever made in the most meticulous manner.

>>17891860
at some point in the last two decades people forgot how to speak at a reasonable level, forgotten not to sneeze into their hands, and how to even make their own food. not saying you're wrong, but you can't expect the world to get any better by just stewing about it on your lonesome.

>>17892012
> at some point in the last two decades people forgot how to speak at a reasonable level,
general bad manners are certainly part of it, but the removal of noise-soaking carpets/rugs, curtains, plush seats, etc has also made restaurants and cafes much louder than they used to be.
