Some years ago I was visiting a friend in Enumclaw Washington and we went out to breakfast at a local diner that was his usual breakfast stop. The waitress asks what what we want to drink: coffee for my buddy and I ask for a cup of decaf. She gives me this look and says “Decaf? Really? I’ll have to make a pot.” And then shaking her head disgustedly, she yells to the back “Hey Rudy! get a pot of DECAF going.”
The noisy place goes quiet as everyone looks at me. My friend stands up and says “Sorry, he’s from California.”
And yeah, the next day for breakfast I ordered just plain old coffee.
Happy Caturday, Gerbil Nation!
Good morning, Fatwa, and Sven!
Sorry, I don’t do decaf. If I want coffee, I want coffee. If I’m concerned about the caffeine, I don’t have coffee. OTOH, caffeine doesn’t keep me awake at night, which means it also doesn’t perk me up in the morning.
Happy Caturday, Wheelizens!
I used to have a copy of that thread GIF captioned with “I f*ucking LOVE cocaine!”
Hah!
I’m personally working on that even as I type.

You seem to have a somewhat conflicted relationship with caffeine, Paddy.
Checking Minteh’s place, I see that SWMNBN is still having her struggles.
Yep, she’s trying mightily to ensure she gets picked up by the U.S. Marshals and transported directly to prison.
I like that it didn’t stop him from taking a second shot.
