Poll: Do You Drink Coffee?

[snowman6251]

Do you drink coffee? Apparently I'm the only person my age (18 ) who doesn't drink coffee. I get a lot of "wait really?" when I tell people that. I think it tastes nasty and I don't need the caffeine in the morning. How about you?

Also if no, how old are you?

Rarely, as a dessert item. And then it has so many other flavors in it that it has little resemblance to coffee.

 

[Xpwn3ntial]

Sometimes, but not that crap Starbuck's sells. I drink real coffee occasionally after lunch sometimes.

 

[Jack_Uzi]

No coffee? That and a cig are my breakfast! And I stick (quote from Dennis Leary) with the "coffe flavoured coffee.".

 

[Joe Matsuda]

I try not to;

whenever I do, I turn into L...what with all the massive amounts of sugar I put in it...

...don't think its very healthy...

Yes, 27yo. Starbucks junkie.

Morning drink of choice is an iced venti nonfat no whip 2-pump mocha. that's 3 shots of espresso and about a cup and a half of skim milk with just a bit of chocolate to take the edge off, over ice.

I'm also quite happy to drink a variety of other espresso drinks, a half-sweet vanilla latte is always good, as is a caramel Macchiato. Egg-nog lattes are AMAZING around christmas. They used to do a maple latte which was goddamn sex on wheels but apparently I was the only person in the country drinking them, because they got discontinued.

A regular cup of coffee with non-fat milk and a teaspoon of sugar is also usually pretty good, but I only order those when the mood strikes me.

Yes i drink it almost daily.
I got hooked on it in my teens. After a lot of drinking and staying out late, coffee worked wonders for me. Now it's my normal breakfast drink.

 

[meticadpa]

Nope.

Simply because I don't like the taste of it.

I drink a lot of tea, milk and water though.

 

[GundamSentinel]

No, I don't drink coffee. I'm 23 but I never got into it. Partly because a lot of the people around me who do drink coffee are lazy bastards who take every opportunity to get a coffee/smoking break. Spending every morning in college hearing people moaning for caffeine is frightfully annoying.

 

[Chicago Ted]

I don't drink coffee, I drink tea instead.

 

[Radeonx]

Yes, I do. I've been drinking coffee every day since I was about 14.

 

[BonsaiK]

I'm 36, I don't drink coffee. I think it tastes a bit putrid, and also I don't like having lots of caffeine and then not being able to get sleep. Sleep > coffee.

 

[Alakaizer]

Never had coffee. About to hit 26 and no coffee. Enough Dr. Pepper that I could have an IV drip of the stuff with the same effect, but no coffee.

 

[Kyuubi Fanatic]

Every day since I was 16. Regular coffee, Starbucks, that cheap imitation crap in given out in waiting rooms, whatever I can get my hands on.

I love me some coffee. ^_^

Tea on the other hand is blegh!! (Hot tea, cuz ice cold sweet tea is awesome)

 

[|Ookami]

I've been drinking it since I was 12 or 13. I love the flavour of it (with cream only; sugar makes coffee taste absolutely disgusting). I usually have three cups or so a day, unless I have some tea instead.

Strangely enough, though, I can go without it and be fine. I did so for two weeks when I was in Japan and felt no change whatsoever... It doesn't seem to particularly affect my sleep, either.

 

[thethingthatlurks]

21 year old caffeine junkie here. I usually stay away from Starbucks et al though, as homebrewed is cheaper and stronger.

 

[rokkolpo]

sometimes. i used to drink it every morning and even brought a thermos to school.

 

[TehCookie]

I'm 18 and I think it taste bitter/nasty, and I would hate the idea of being addicted to caffeine. If I drink an energy drink I want to feel energized, if you drink too often you don't feel energized you feel slow without it. Then again when I say energy drink I mean a pop with caffeine, mostly Mountain Dew.

 

[CarpathianMuffin]

Whenever possible, yes. Either black or with a lot of sugar. Never with cream.

 

[Keava]

Coffee addict for more than half of my life. Usually at least 1 in the very morning before breakfast, then second one around 9 am at work, then third one around lunch time, sometimes fourth later and if i have some late night work to do even later in the evening. On few occasions happened i got one after midnight when stuck on all nighter at work.

Only drinking black coffee, no milk, no sugar, no coffee-like products, usually 2-3 spoons / cup.
