Erica's Wild Coffee Tangent

AllyOops! · 06-13-2007, 05:41 PM

Here's the deal, folks. If I can't tell a coffee bean from a lima bean, do my opinions & taste suddenly "not count"? I likes what I likes and there you have it. Juan Valdez & his trusty burro could show up at my door & educate me and I'd still offer to take them to Starbucks for frappy's. Well, maybe not the burro. I'd give him fresh carrots & cuddles but dammit, this isn't about the way I feed and love our burro friends, people. This is about COFFEE. I think. I never know when I start to ramble.

I ♥ Buck Bucks. I also ♥ Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf. Peet's. Seattle's Best. The Folger's I brew in my pot. Bring it on 'cause I like it all! Unless Starbuck's operates entirely on the funds of coffee loving serial killers or donated heavily to the OJ defense, I'm still goin'. I mean,The friggin' burger dances on my friggin' tastebuds with delight. Whether it comes from Mc Donald's or not is beside the point (FYI- I don't touch fast food since it wigs me out so I should really shut up now- but you aren't gettin' that lucky.)

In the end it's all opinion, not gospel. Unless of course, it's my opinion. My opinion is gospel & fact. But you already knew that.

There is definitely a time and place for a bad cup of coffee. Usually when one is dining alone and the waitress (CM?) brings you a mug of coffee with the coffee spilling over the side and the spoon already in the mug. In the same vein: the doughnut shop. Pulling an all-nighter. In your parents' house: anyone up for a Sanka with CoffeeMate?

There are also times and places when a bad cup of coffee, like a bad house wine, is very disappointing though perhaps not surprising.

What was that waiter's name again?

My brain is being tickled. I feel like I should know of this reference, but, like a sneeze that just won't happen, i can't get the memory to surface.

Considering I think all coffee is vile so this thread is kind of like discussing the best way to prepare piss, I still get the reference.
