Why are coffee drinkers so incredibly shocked when people tell them they don't drink it?
The jaw drops to the floor and the question inevitably follows- "You WHAT? You don't... Y-Y-Y-YOU DON'T DRINK COFFEE????" It's almost like they were just told that someone doesn't brush their teeth... or even breathe. Of course this groundbreaking discovery usually comes in the middle of a coffeeshop where you uh, invited the person to for a, ahem, coffee...
Then follows a barrage of questions.
You don't drink ANY coffee, like ever?
Not even iced coffee?
WHY NOT?
What do you do? Like, in the morning... Uh, how do you... ?
Mass confusion ensues. It blows their mind. (It's almost but not quite as profound as when someone says they don't drink.) Why? Well, because coffee is a double whammy of goodness. It's a yummy and effective drug delivery system. Pretty damn ideal folks. Mmmmm cooffeeeee. I'm slurpin' one down at this very moment.
I'll have to reread this and make corrections after the caffeine hits.

i don't drink coffee anymore, like ever. But I do drink tea, does that count?
I've never had a sip of the stuff. I can't even stand the smell, but I love the caffeine.
I love everything about it - it's like a hug for your innards. Except if it's made poorly. Bad coffee is one of the biggest day-ruiners there is.
True dat Jensies.
If someone says they drink tea, then it quells the coffee drinker's anxiety to some extent, although not completely.
