Hot chocolate is easy; two square dark chocolate in 2cm's of boiling water with hot milk. The only dirty thing is your mug which, if you love dark chocolate, you'll have licked clean already.

In what world is that easier than "sit cup on counter, press button"? That's literally all it is. Place cup, get hot chocolate.

also i have a little drip coffee machine which cost me $15 at canadian tire and i grind my own coffee and cook breakfast every single morning and the process of both brewing coffee and cooking breakfast always takes me 10 minutes (i know this because i listen to the cbc news podcast every morning which is always exactly 10 minutes long and it always finishes just as i finish making breakfast) and i wake up just as obscenely early as the rest of you who complain about having no time so you guys have no excuse. it's cheap and it's delicious. brew your own god dang coffee like a god dang man

Like seriously what is with this thread and also the general middle class horror that other people are capable of making different lifestyle choices to you omg. Seriously, what coffee you drink or how you drink it or what you eat or how you eat it or where you eat it or why you eat it or how you prepare fucking hot chocolate and how long it takes you has nothing to do with how good or lazy or manly or mature or accomplished or intelligent a goddamn person you are.

Unless you eat at McDonalds in which case fuck you.

I went for an interview to work at a Nespresso shop once.  I was a fully qualified barista. They said I didn't have enough retail experience. Blow you guys. I bet your coffee tastes like shit anyway.

My parents bought one of those Nespresso machines that are being advertised by George Clooney all over the place. My stepdad is the only one who drinks coffee but you put these little capsules in the machine and it apparently makes you a rather wonderful cup of coffee. You also pour the milk into a jug and it froths it all on it's on (which I use for when I want hot chocolates).

I hold that opinion for people in real life as well.
You know what? I'm in a terrible fucking mood and really shouldn't be taking it out on you guys, given that I talk to and value you guys more than I do most of my friends in real life. I should learn to not click post when I'm feeling this foul. Sorry.

Just do what i do when in a shitty mood:

Type out whatever fucking rant you want to go on, don't pull a single punch. Throw some personal shit in there about whatever set off said rant.

I mean really go after it, rip someone a new asshole.

Then close the window.

Also Sainsburies is one of the better cheap whiskies going. Nicer than quite a few of the more mid-ranged offerings.

Thing is that I don't really mind drinking cheap whiskey within reason. I could never afford to drink Laphroaig or Bruichladdich or Jura or whatever any time I fancy a scotch. Drinking lower quality scotch does not actually physically harm me (apart from the same way all scotch harms you), and it is still more enjoyable than just sitting in a chair not drinking scotch at all. It's not the ultimate possible scotch drinking experience, but it's fine. What is constantly being implied and occasionally outright stated with regards to coffee is that this is not a good attitude: that you should either drink the best possibe coffee brewed in the most correct way or you should not drink coffee. This is a patently ridiculous position. I would never in fact argue that a good filter coffee doesn't taste better than an instant, in fact I can tell the difference between filter, instant, french press and americano pretty much instanty. However, to me, instant coffee, at least the brands I buy, tastes perfectly fine. In fact most coffee that doesn't come out of a vending machine on a train station is perfectly amenable to my palette. I am generally just quite laid back on most gustatory matters: I appreciate good things, but I don't constanty demand them, nor do I expect them. It's nice to have a fancy coffee or meal or scotch or whatever as a treat, but I can live perfectly fine with the standard fare.

The only place where this attitude slightly breaks down is beer and cigarettes, though this is in large part because I like very particular sorts of beer and cigarettes (ruby and dark ales and strong rolling tobacco in liquorice papers respectively) and these types are generally all of a certain quality. I do find drinking most common lagers or smoking cheap cigarettes somewhat unpleasant though.

Actually, don't do that.

I've done that. You get your rant off your chest, but instead of posting, you delete it. It's like you told the person off, but you really didn't, so you can move on! Yay!

Also some people don't like coffee because they really just don't like coffee. I love the smell of it, but I can't stand the taste of it. Have I tried it? Yes, several times over the years and it's always been the "good stuff" but it still tastes horrible. Sorry! I prefer different bitters. And if someone prefers instant coffee over the other stuff, then hey, that's cool too. You drink your stuff and I'll drink mine and we'll all be happy people!

Fair enough (my wife prefers instant) - but the difference in the coffee case is hugely more than the difference in the whisky case.

Has anyone else eaten coffee grounds/beans when you didn't have access to hot water?

Chocolate-coated coffee beans for after-dinner nibbles are a thing.  I have been known to eat a whole pack in a sitting.

I honestly wouldn't know, because I don't drink it, but I'm sure there is a great difference. I'm guessing it's more along the lines of beer - cheap beer tastes, well, cheap while higher end beers have more flavor, etc. But I know people who still really like the cheap stuff whereas others will only drink imports or microbrews.

Basically, that's the position I hold.

It may be a position you hold but it's not a position that everyone, or even most people hold. Thinking it should be is when this sort of thing becomes snobbery.

aw khar come on you know i was just joking, although those single-serve machines really are needlessly wasteful which i think is a completely understandable thing to be annoyed with. i still love you, you instant-drinking heathen.

I wouldn't buy famous grouse if I couldn't afford a single malt of some kind, but I will drink basically any beer anyone puts in front of me (shit, I drank Miller High Life in Chicago), and any coffee except instant goes (the one we have here at school stays in the percolator for literally days on end, but I still drink four or five cups a day). I will eat any white cheese available, but I only eat Heinz tomato beans or similarly nice ones, and will not eat tomato beans if I cannot afford them. It varies with the substance, I guess!

At first I was going to make a post that said "the fuck are tomato beans" but then I used the internet to find out. They seem like something that would taste not too bad. I probably would not like to eat them from a can, though.

Eating baked beans out of the tin is like eating peanut butter out of the jar, ie it is frowned on by society but everyone's done it.



I gotta admit I am not a particular fan of any beans but heinz and will never personally go out and buy another brand, but I think that's more to do with familiarity than quality. Heinz baked beans remind me of my childhood, pretty much. Same with their tomato soup; any other type of soup I don't give a shit but tomato has pretty much got to be heinz. I think that's fundamentally a different thing though. Like I bet you pretty much the only reason for, say, privileging marmite over vegemite is which one you grew up with.


EDIT: Wait, wait, you had to look up baked beans?

I've never heard of tomato beans, but I've heard of baked beans. Maybe it's just another biscuit/cookie thing.

He didn't call them baked beans. I figured it was something similar, but I have never had beans in tomato sauce. I have had maple baked beans about a million times and I am sure I have seen the beans in tomato sauce in stores before but for some reason my mind didn't make the connection.

I've had some pretty tasty instant coffee, to be honest. Granted I don't drink coffee often (like twice a month when I'm way too tired at the diner or whatever) so I probably don't have quite as particular tastes as some of you? But yeah, instant coffee, not always so bad I guess?

I don't think the way khar reacted to this thread was out of place given that sean kicked things off with a choice bit of self-righteous neuroticism.

I also really do feel that there's often a lot of snobbery involved with at least the language of things like coffee and scotch drinking. I have a couple of friends who practically use ritual language when discussing alcohol and they reacted with abject horror when they found I sometimes mix cheap blended scotch with coca cola. I like the smoky finish compared to similarly priced American liquors. Sue me.

I drink cheap scotch and cola. Cheap cola as well, since I won't buy coke or pepsi for ethical reasons.

Some people like fancy coffee and some people like cheap coffee and some people like sugary coffee and some people don't like coffee at all and some people like some combination of the above and these are all acceptable opinions because it is only coffee and there is no objective measurement of taste.

I hate that thing where you actually type out the complete exact antonym for what you wanted to say.

Actually, I like rye for mixing with coke as well, now that I think about it, but some of 'em get a bit too sweet. As far as coke goes, it's an ethical blindspot for me. I've always drank it and I basically have some mutant form of Stockholm syndrome at this point.

Yeah, I'm talking about B. I have been openly mocked about this stuff. Many people are spazzy douche bags. And "laziness and apathy of American culture" hits me as pretty snobby.

yeah whoa guys i dont give a shit about what type of coffee you drink, for the last month of last semester i was drinkin damn food lion brand coffee. shit was nasty. i just find that single serve machines are stupidly wasteful and pointless in the home environment. though as dovey pointed out it was kinda silly for me to start suggesting coffee machines are capable of the downfall of western civilization.

though that is a really funny thought...

Which is exactly what I was fine with Khar calling you out on. It was a silly thing, after all, and not really the same sort of thing Jeans has been saying.

Already posted by tender, but my idea of a single serving coffee machine:

With water from my Chantal Loop, because it is a sweet looking kettle.

Actually, don't do that.

Fuck you, you fucking fuck.(see what I did there? Threw my first instinct right out the window)

If you're going to vent by typing a lot then clicking once, then later feel bad about it, just change the place you click.


on topic:
I still hold that having one of the single cup machines is awesome but I would never shell out the cash for one myself.

Nespresso machines that are being advertised by George Clooney

I will spend the rest of my life refusing to buy one of these machines because I find that advert so annoying.
