Thank you. I'm apparently passionate about it. I can understand not liking the taste, or hating the jitters, or belonging to a religion that discourages it, but as it's one of the very few unambiguously good and healthy joys of this imperfect world, I cannot abide to hear it run down as bad for your health.
- dns_snek 10mo ago> I cannot abide to hear it run down as bad for your health. I didn't say it was bad for health as a general statement, I said that there are many people out there who suffer negative health consequences from caffeine consumption, in response to you telling everyone to drink coffee. I actually like coffee, I have a fancy hand grinder and everything, my body just doesn't handle it well when consumed on a regular basis and I know people who've had to quit because it made their anxiety so bad that they started getting panic attacks. Telling "everyone" to drink coffee because there's no good reason not to is just wrong and careless and potentially dangerous. "Not everyone should" != "nobody should"
- jama211 10mo agoYou’re picking at hairs. “Everyone” was being used colloquially by them, not literally.
- dns_snek 10mo agoFine. Everyone should do pure pharmaceutical-grade [cocaine, opioids, cannabis, nicotine], there's no good reason not to, in moderation.
- jama211 10mo agoI mean, we already knew you were being a jerk and being intent on presenting bad faith arguments, but way to really spell it out for us.
