A.M. ANNOYANCE - Bean There, Done That
No place to sit at Starbucks . . .
This morning’s rant targets are all those people who use not having had their morning coffee as an behavioral excuse.
You know the type … “I can’t talk to right now, I can’t even speak English before I’ve had my first cup of coffee for the day” or “Sorry I nearly hit you with my car in the parking lot - I haven’t had my coffee yet this morning.”
So, basically you’re trying to tell me that 150 milligrams of caffeine is the difference between you acting like a human being or acting like an antisocial idiot?
Any other chemical imbalances I should know about – like if you don’t have enough vitamin C you’ll lock me in a dungeon and sodomize me?
Excuse me if I avoid you for, oh … say, the rest of my life.
We all have bad days. But if your personality changes radically without a specific chemical substance, you may want to see professional help.
As a disclaimer, let me say that I drink copious amounts of coffee in a day - over half a gallon a day. I do, however, function quite well without it and don’t believe that most people would be able to tell the difference between when I’ve had my coffee and when I haven’t.
Except if you saw me type this post in under four seconds …
coffee, vitamin C, Starbucks, caffeine
