I used to drink Tim Hortons coffee but I think they switched suppliers. I've found that I prefer McDonald's coffee, specifically their lattes the most. I tried a latte that cost me $5.03 at Starbucks and it tasted like warm, foamy milk. I thought they were supposed to be top shit when it came to coffee.
For the most part, I just drink coffee at home, either from my Kuerig or drip.
If I have to spend money on coffee away from home, it's usually not Starbucks, overpriced and tastes like crap.
I prefer DD if I'm out somewhere. Although there's a few smaller coffee shops in my area that sell excellent cups of coffee. They're not cheap though.
At home I usually make my own with my Mr. Coffee drip machine. I'll end up picking up a Chemex eventually...those can make some very nice cups of coffee if you do it right.

Also Starbucks is pretty overrated IMO.
I don't like coffee.
Coffee is for people who are too "off" to get enough sleep or eat breakfast. I sleep 8-9 hours a day, even on weekends/vacations, and eat breakfast everyday. Never tired. Early to bed, early to rise, time to eat, all set for another day.
Still no good? Peanuts and raisins are a good, vitalizing snack, and is way more healthy than coffee, which can become addicting, from what I've seen and heard, as it is a stimulant.

Or maybe some of us just like to drink it. I sleep at least 7-8 hours a night, but I just enjoy having a cup of coffee when I'm up. I'll have one after dinner on occasion too.

That is basically the same thing as all these teenagers drinking energy drinks like soda, because it tastes good.
Which really isn't good at all.
People don't have to give up coffee, just use it sparingly.

"Hey you see the Roast of Donald Trump last night?"
"Nope, I go to bed at 9."
".............really?"

What lol
I drink lattes 'cause they're delicious, not 'cause I need them

And? So what if people want to drink something they enjoy? I like the taste of a well brewed cup of coffee, especially if it's good enough to drink black.
Coffee is also relatively harmless in comparison to other beverages that cause addictions. You need to seriously pound down a lot of it if you really want to start giving yourself health issues.

You are correct about people drinking things that enjoy, but my point of view is that whatever way you look at it, coffee isn't necessarily healthy, as is most things, but coffee is just one of those things that I just wont give a [b]2nd[/b] chance, taste or not.
I shall agree to disagree, but in a polite and gentlemanly manner.
Hrm, that box is a sign of intolerance. I shan't talk with you anymore.
So you've never had a coffee?
[QUOTE=GodKing;28734485]So you've never had a coffee?[/QUOTE]
I've had some before. I liked it. French Vanilla. But alas, I'd rather eat peanuts and raisins then get an "artificial" rush, as my father would put it.
I look up to my dad, so I trust him to tell me what is right for me.
It'll be Starbucks whenever I'm out though if I feel like quick coffee and I'm not at home I'll go to Subway.

The service at mine is lightning fast.

I suppose there's nothing wrong with that.

I am drinking a Mcdonalds vanilla latte right now godDAMN it's delicious, like I don't understand how it's possible for a burger chain to make better coffee than a place that specializes in it
