2. I drink coffee purely for the medicinal effect. Maxwell House Instant with...

.
.
.
... a really healthy (??!!) pour of Carnation Sugar-Free French Vanilla
Liquid Creamer.

Just wake me up, dammit... and don't make me grimace.

3. That's not coffee, that's floor sweepings

The 5 grades of coffee:
1. coffee
2. java
2. joe
4. jamoke
5. carbon remover

Instant coffee is about 5.99 on the scale

4. What coffee/beer/wine snobs all fail to realize is that one scale don't fit ever'body.

An aesthetic SCALE? Therein lies the rub.
.
.
.
Did you see what I expected/hoped for from my coffee?
.
.
.
Did you think I would find "THE SCALE" to be useful or even interesting for my purposes?
.
.
.
I know that Starbucks tastes like crap, but it's freakin' rocket fuel (go to energyfiend.com
for the quantifiable reason for that), so it suits my purposes just fine. I had Jamaican Blue
Mountain a few years ago (a friend gave me some as a gift) and didn't find anything special
about it aesthetically or pragmatically. Though I do believe, for you... it's ambrosial. For me,
it was expensive "floor sweepings".
.
.
HEY!!! This coffee snob thing IS kinda fun, innit?

6. The best part of wakin' up...

Yes, it's my brand and I'm stickin' to it even when film students make fun of it.

I like McDonald's coffee, too.

7. I had my first Blue Mountain in Jamaica 35 years ago during my smuggling days

You can tell the difference. Most of what's sold here is some kind of blend, not 100% certified

[MiddleFingerMom]

8. I believe my point went right over your head, That's OK.

9. My Folgers may not be 100 percent certified

But it works for me.

5. Cafe Au Lait style

I found a local market selling Café Du Monde Chicory & Coffee for $6/can. I use a pour over cup, froth the cream and 30 minutes later....well functional.
