Do you like it? If so, for the taste or the effect?

Personally, I think it does nothing. A Diet Coke will rev me up, and a coffee does nothing.

It makes JORR swerve into buildings.

What are your thoughts?

I like the smell, I hate the taste. I rely on tea for my caffeine, of which there isn't quite as much as there is in coffee.

Same here. Nothing in it. I love the bitter taste.

I never, ever drank it until I started teaching and when I transitioned into sales I started drinking more.

Cocaine usage went down, though.

I could drink it all day. I'm doing an alcohol detox (three days so far) and my coffee consumption has doubled.

Don't really notice the effect. Love the taste and smell.

Dunkin has the best coffee.

I need the shit in the morning. Feel grumpy as hell and after my first cup I'm downright fucking perky.

Caffeine blocks certain receptors in your brain and is kind of similar to an anti depressant.

I think it blocks receptors in YOUR brain.

The only scotch I like (so far) is glenlivet. Keep trying.

Coffe tastes and smells awful.

I rarely drink it, but have started to more often because I cut out my soda habit. I drink maybe 2 cups of coffee per week. It's like what I imagine crack to be. Instantly wakes me up and changes my mood for the better. Thank god it tastes like hell.

I like it because it gets me up. Too much of it fucks me up though, which I find distasteful because I like being in control.

Being in control is important to me. Whether it is caffeine or alcohol I have to always be in control.

I'm the same way, but I do allow myself caffeine and ibuprofen. Nothing else.

I like getting drunk from time to time or affected by caffeine but it just isn't me. I can't be my true self unless I'm sober and in my right mind.

Love coffee. Taste. The caffeine doesn't seem to affect me all that much. I usually drink it throughout the day at work.

I've never been a big coffee drinker. Even when I worked early in the morning at the radio station. Maybe once in a while I would have a cup.

Sometimes, on Saturday mornings now, when I have to drive from Plano to Naperville for my Small Group meeting at church. I'll go through Starbucks and get a Venti White Chocolate Mocha.

Diet Coke is more manly than anything with cream and/or sugar.
