As a Brit dating an Italian, I couldn't agree more. I like to enjoy my coffee, not just drink it for the effects. I will never understand the tiny intense espresso + double sugar combo as a way to finish every meal. I get palpatations just thinking about it.
That being said, I'm really enjoying weak watery coffee these days. Its sweeter, you taste the aroma more, and it's a nice slow high in the morning that teases you gently into a focused work mindset, instead of tense grinning-neurotic mess I used to be. Also, I can sleep better at night.

- TeMPOraL 2y agoI thought espresso is something you order in quantity of 2 or 4, to be mixed into the regular coffee so it works. That's what I always do.

- tetris11 2y agoYES. I'm sorry, but I like my pasta floppy please. The sheer bloated feeling I get after eating an otherwise perfectly prepared dish is nothing to joke about.
