I didn’t start drinking coffee until I was in my 30’s. I couldn’t understand what people liked about it. I grew up in North Dakota and everybody made their coffee very weak. Finally, I tried a cup in a Seattle coffee shop and liked it. Turns out I just needed the jolt of caffeine. When I went back to ND, I asked why the coffee was so weak and was told that with it weak they could drink it all day. I myself would rather have one strong cup of coffee then to drink tasteless swill.
Dupea: I’d like a plain omelette, no potatoes, tomatoes instead, a cup of coffee, and wheat toast.
Waitress: (She points to the menu) No substitutions.
Dupea: What do you mean? You don’t have any tomatoes?
Waitress: Only what’s on the menu. You can have a number two - a plain omelette. It comes with cottage fries and rolls.
Dupea: Yeah, I know what it comes with. But it’s not what I want.
Waitress: Well, I’ll come back when you make up your mind.
Dupea: Wait a minute. I have made up my mind. I’d like a plain omelette, no potatoes on the plate, a cup of coffee, and a side order of wheat toast.
Waitress: I’m sorry, we don’t have any side orders of toast…an English muffin or a coffee roll.
Dupea: What do you mean you don’t make side orders of toast? You make sandwiches, don’t you?
Waitress: Would you like to talk to the manager?
Dupea: …You’ve got bread and a toaster of some kind?
Waitress: I don’t make the rules.
Dupea: OK, I’ll make it as easy for you as I can. I’d like an omelette, plain, and a chicken salad sandwich on wheat toast, no mayonnaise, no butter, no lettuce. And a cup of coffee.
Waitress: A number two, chicken salad, hold the butter, the lettuce and the mayonnaise. And a cup of coffee. Anything else?
Dupea: Yeah. Now all you have to do is hold the chicken, bring me the toast, give me a check for the chicken salad sandwich, and you haven’t broken any rules.
Waitress (spitefully): You want me to hold the chicken, huh?
You havent had good coffee until you’ve had Community brand coffee. Its the best. The Factory is right here in Baton ROuge and the smell of the beans roasting in the mornings is the best….

All I drink. Wouldn’t have anything but my Folgers instant.

Ralphman, instant? Don’t insult yourself anymore. Get a coffee machine and buy your coffee in a can, not a jar.
