coffee people are insufferable. I like my dark roasted, cheap supermarket beans. 70 arabica / 30 robusta. I have a few coffee-fanatic friends who say it tastes like burnt asphalt, tires and charcoal. They keep shitting on where the beans come from. Meanwhile, "specialty coffees" with a light roast all taste like battery acid. Shit is absolutely undrinkable. Are coffee people weird or am I just not getting it? I'm trying to understand. The acidity of those coffees is insane, unpleasant and overwhelming

Agreed. And they're crackheads, no one can tell me otherwise. I've had cups of coffee that had me more jittery than a line of Colombian cocaine.

I half agree with you, third wave type light light roasts are too sour. Particularly modern espresso.
But your burnt coffee is still burnt.

You're pretty dumb if you think dark roast aka burnt tastes less like battery acid than lighter roasts. Dark doesn't mean stronger, it literally means burnt, which destroys the caffeine compounds and increases the acidity.

anon pls. weed impairs working memory and is widely abused as a form of self-medication for loneliness, anxiety, and depression. none of these things are healthy, and a normal caffeine "addiction" has none of that same baggage.

weed isn't chemically addictive but a huge number of people over-integrate it into their lives and it has the same negative drawbacks as most addictions, except it's not as unhealthy, and it's a bit cheaper than most. Just because someone's addicted to something that's "not as bad" doesn't mean it's not bad.

They're fake coffee people. Real coffee people don't care for sugar, cream, or specific coffees. Real coffee people need coffee like a crackhead needs crack. And no, tea or caffeine pills can't be substituted. Something about the aroma and taste affects the caffeine or maybe that's just my crackhead brain talking. Sure I got a preference for freshly ground coffee beans. But freeze dried is fine as long as I get my coffee. I won't lie, I do fuck with a nice "ghetto cappuccino" : milk goes in microwave for 2min them add 2 spoons instant coffee 2 spoons agave nectar then use a frother to thicken once a week on Sunday or Friday.

For me, it's either be a crackhead for coffee or take legal amphetamines aka ADHD meds. I'm semi retarded without coffee. Went up 2 grade point averages when I started drinking coffee in the 5th grade. I was able to actually focus and remember shit.

I'm gonna go get my fix.

They uniquely believe that their addiction is not only not harmful but actually good for their physical and mental health.
>it's natural bro
>it's medicine bro
Etc. A meth addict knows he's psychotic and going to lose his teeth, an alcoholic knows his organs are failing. Weed addicts actually think it's beneficial, maybe due to some function of the cannabinoid system to where it feels "good" in the sense of being physiologically healing in some sense. Ain't true though, in before the copes about I know 15 billionaires who all smoke 1 pound a day, yeah and I know a guy who is very successful and has like 12 drinks a day but that doesn't mean that you crushing 4 steelies a day is good for you.

Instant is underrated and very convenient. Way better than no coffee or burnt coffee. I might drink it all the time except I have to discpline myself not to drink so much I get sick. So I make a half pot in the morning, fill my cup and my thermos, and that's all I have for the day. The thermos means it doesn't get burnt. My apocalypse stash is all instant. I want coffee to drink in my basement waiting for the radiation clouds to blow over dammit.
