Brutus of a day

At least Brutus will be getting plenty of exercise shortly. He will likely get 5 miles in running back and forth to the bathroom all morning.

Oooh, one of those days, Brutus. I used to call those “hitting the hard stuff (Coca-Cola) before 9:00.”

Just buy yourself a 36oz Bubba® mug and you’ll be all set!! It will even keep your coffee hot for hours!!

Late night last night?

Brutus’ work is so boring he’ll need more than two cups to stay awake.

I just got back from the “Hospital Vampire of the Morning” (the taking of a blood sample) and I haven’t eat anything: I’d need that coffe.

Dealing with Veeblefester, he needs those coffees!

As Shakespeare would have said, “Et tu, Brutus!” [Julius Caesar play]. Translating into modern English, “Get two, Brutus!”

I always fill two mugs before my Zoom meetings start…

A daily occurrence with my wife only with 2 McDonald’s unsweet iced teas.

so, when you go back for refills, you’ll get twice the refills getting twice the caffeine needed for the extra long day… wonder if I should try that at home, but I already drink more than I should. :D

The guy who stands with his hands in his pockets gets nothing.

That’s why you only buy yourself one at a time for the excuse that you NEED to go out to get a coffee. Also, hate to have cold coffee and that second cup would definitely be cool by the time I got to it. Then again, Brutus might just be a two fisted drinker

So, Brutus likes one coffee hot and the other lukewarm. OK, and yuck.

Brutus is being practical for a change, fewer trips for refills. So he can be productive at doing nothing all day.

Wally in Dilbert drinks much more coffee every day than Brutus.
