Man, this coffee is strong enough to cure bladder infections

[HEyHEY]

Yowza. When you make a batch that's too strong do you suffer through it? Or do you chuck it and make another?

1. play through the pain, boss.

chew 25 times before swallowing.

[HEyHEY]

4. The head of my journalism department used to tell us

"You gotta be able to walk on it to call it coffee."

[WindRavenX]

2. I think I've given myself some pretty bad heartburn b/c of my coffee

I would triple or quad-strength it-- and I've been having a racing heart and bad heartburn.
Maybe I should cut back...

[MrCoffee]

3. if you cut back, the terrorists win.

[WindRavenX]

5. I know

:(

It's a difficult delima...it's so tasty and wakes me up, but why does it need to make my heart race and give me heartburn?

BTW, I'll never go decaf-- that's just un-American.

[MrCoffee]

6. the palpitations and acid means its working.

i just keep pouring the black stuff on top of my ulcer to cool the fire.

[Deja Q]

7. You didn't pee in it beforehand. I hope?

:rofl:

[Richard Steele]

8. I've never made a batch that's too strong, because there's no such thing!

Yeah, I just drink it.

If it's really too nasty for you, you can dilute it, you know.

[HEyHEY]

9. Bah! Then I'd be letting it win.

[Richard Steele]

10. That's the coffee-drinkin' spirit!

Just keep a blunt object handy in case
it tries to crawl off on its own and
you need to beat it back into the cup.

Some varieties need more convincing than others!

[HEyHEY]

11. LOL n/t

[petronius]

12. Perhaps you should balance it out with a big spinach salad,

with a couple of raw eggs on top...

(And when the coffee's too strong I don't "chuck it" - I chuck it at the person who made it, and demand another pot right quick... :mad: )
