- soperj 3y agoSo is meth apparently if you can avoid the negative effects.
- nwienert 3y agoIn low doses it is quite useful, as is its cousin amphetamine. Luckily caffeine is even safer, possible net benefit to health, has been in wide use for thousands of years, and smells and tastes amazing.
- soperj 3y agoI've heard lots of people who like the smell of coffee, I've never met anyone who's liked the taste of coffee the first time they drank it. There's a reason people put milk and sugar in it.
- avgcorrection 3y agoI don't know anyone who drinks anything but black coffee. But sure, extrapolate your cultural practices as universal truths. ... we all know that sugar is addictive like meth, in any case. ;)
- nwienert 3y agoAlso so what if it tastes better with a bit of milk? I heard most people don’t even drink straight lemon juice they water it down! Proof positive lemonade sucks.
- soperj 3y agoThey wouldn't say lemon juice is delicious though, they'd say I like lemonade. Said as someone who actually loves lemons.
- nwienert 3y agoI actually wondered if you would reply this. You’re making an irrelevant point: coffee is the term for plain coffee or with a splash of milk / sugar. We don’t have a separate term, like we do lemons/lemonade. There’s no gotcha here.
- soperj 3y agoThey do in Canada. People call it a double double ;) Or if they really dislike coffee, the Wayne Gretzky.
- throwaway1777 3y agoThat applies to lots of things. Most kids don’t like broccoli the first time they try it either. Tastebuds are adaptable. The effects are more important.
