I don't like coffee. Trust me. I have tried. I have tried many different types of coffee. I have tried coffee with cream, sugar, lots of sugar, lots of cream, and coffee from some the "supposed" best coffee joints around. Always the same result; gagging and choking followed by an urgent need to find something to get the nasty taste out of my mouth.
Yet, where ever you go, people are always trying to give you coffee with little regard for those of us who can't stand the stuff. Meetings, church, hotels, restaurants, they all will offer you coffee, often for free. However, if you want a Mt. Dew or other beverage, you have to cough up some cash.
The other thing I don't understand about coffee is this obsession with Starbucks and other expensive coffees. I suppose my opinion here is bias, due the fact that a $1 cup of coffee tastes just as gross as a $5 cup of coffee. Does coffee at Starbucks really taste that much better than coffee at Speedway? Now, McDonald's is trying to make gourmet coffee; I know that because every time I drive up to get my Egg McMuffin lately, they ask if I would like to try an "Iced Mocha" or some other yuck. Keep your coffee, just give me my Egg McMuffin.
Today, I am calling up on all coffee haters - join me in my rebellion! Let us rid ourselves of this liquid curse for good! Ok, so there is really no need to rebel. But it would be nice to get some free Mt. Dew once in a while.
Peace.
Bill

I see no one has taken up your anti-coffee cause. Hmmm.
