...or lump coffee in with cigarettes (despite the fact that they go so well together in the fun sense).

I get it, you dislike the taste. But coffee is healthier than cigarettes and less risky than sex, and a great cup to a coffee junkie, just when they need it, comes close to a 'little death'.

Yeah, but when was the last time a hot cup of coffee made you come?

And wouldn't it look rather stupid to sip a cup in bed right after some hot humping sex?

I'm not particular about coffee taste since I only use it for the caffeine. I'd happily drink the old dregs of a pot. I really prefer tea, but the coffee is free at work.

If I'm buying it, I take it regular because it's easier than explaining how I actually want it. If I make it myself, 1.5 sugars and one powdered whitener (not cream or milk).

I'm lazy like that.

It beats smoking right after and increases 'turn around' time. Maybe we can get sex out of this topic now though, it seems to creep into every one!

If you put sugar in coffee, you may as well just drink Coke®. If you don't like the taste in the first place, why bother?

Well on the rare occasions when I make my own Nescafe, I use two teaspoons of sugar. On Sunday mornings in church I have a single sweetener and creme. When I buy it in Starbuck or the like, well it's already way too sweet to begin with. Finally, when I'm at my motherland or a Pakistani restaurant, I like my Turkish strong, but not bitter...which is why I use one or two teaspoons of sugar.

I have 5 teaspoons of sugar. Mind you, I have 5 teaspoons of coffee too. I'm a caffeine junkie. And I mean junkie.

Just 5 teaspoons? In Egypt they put AT LEAST 7 tea spoons into their peppermint tea, and sometimes they even add milk to that (which actually tastes quite good)!

I agree; it's quite minging.

If ya gonna drink instant, at least make it a half-decent (theres that word again) one.

For me it's Kenco.

Thats a regular coffee for me. If I want a caffeine hit I fill half my mug with coffee, the other half with sugar. Still, that doesnt really do anything since im decensitised.
