.......

slowly... raises... hand....

Sometimes up to 5 cups a day here... I should probably slow down on the bean juice before my mind gets screwed up...

In the beginning there was nothing. There'll be nothing in the end...

I used to be, all day long. Now I'm reduced to decaf. Don't do what I did kids. JUST SAY NO!

Just 5 cups? I drink 3-4 at work throughout the day, then every night I make a pot for myself. It is my only vice (aside from Asian girls).

I like some coffee products with various flavors added to them... or frapuccinos (sp?) Mostly all that good stuff that Starbucks sells... I hate just plain coffee though.

IMO, coffee =< used cat litter mixed with swamp water.
Seriously, I've never understood how people can drink that gross stuff.

LOL!

I like my coffee with cream and sugar (sometimes flavored creamer). However, when I'm working; I stop by various housing units and drink whatever coffee they have (even black). About 3-4 cups a day.

Did someone say coffee?!

I'll usually only drink two cups in the morning, and maybe one in the afternoon. Occasionally on the way home from working at the Renaissance Faire my mom will stop and let my sister and I purchase a flavored coffee from the gas station. Who knew gas stations actually had good coffee? More specifically, French Vanilla coffee...yum.

I think my coffee 'addiction' started back in Texas, around late 2004, when my Youth Pastor of the time opened up a coffee shop for the Youth Group. My first cup of coffee was an espresso. Needless to say, I was awake until way past midnight, and I was hooked on coffee. Sadly, he eventually stopped letting us make espresso's, so we had to compensate for Starbucks Chilled Mochas, although those were still really good. Dang, I could go for one right now...

I drink 2-3 cups a day with creamer, but somehow it doesn't affect me at all. I can drink a cup right before I go to bed.

I HATE Coffee. It is the all time worst beverage ever. Cappachino is good... but COFFEE! It tastes like dirt.

A cappuccino isn't real coffee....real coffee doesn't include sugar.

I used to think coffee tasted bad..until I realized it was only because I was accustomed to sweetened hot beverages. So I cut off the sugar and overtime I grew to LOVE coffee without it...

Well, that may be the problem, I don't really prefer any hot beverages I guess. The only things I really drink are Milk, Water, Pop, and Juice.

I used to be addicted...but then I ran into a brand of coffee that made me violently sick every morning at school(roughly 20-30 minutes after drinking it, I would throw up 2-3 times, until my stomach was empty) for over a week before we found out the coffee was the problem. Since then I've enjoyed the occasional cup, but it's no longer a daily habit.

My name is Andrew, and I am a coffee addict.

I probably have 5 cups a day at work, and probably another 3 at night - Gold Blend, black, 4 sweeteners. Coffee is a little miracle, my favorite drink.

Speaking of which my cup is looking mighty bare, and my tongue feels like an Arabs flip-flop.

I like coffee and I drink it regularly, but I'm certainly not addicted or dependent on it (and I can avoiding drinking it for a while without withdrawal etc.)

Two cups on the way to work, an endless pot while I am at work, one on the way home, and an endless pot when I get home. I like me some sugar in mine, but will drink it black.

Exactly, I'm the same. I can't remember why, but I once went for a week or two without coffee, with no probs.

Sorry, I guess that was an overly bold statement. I was just saying that (IMO) sugar changes the taste of coffee completely. Creamer also does slightly, but not to the same extent.

Haven't had any coffee yet today.....that needs to be fixed.

Nah. I live in the middle of nowhere (no Starbucks) and it takes me 50 minutes to an hour to get to work. I take 2 insulated mugs full of deliciousness with me when I leave in the morning. (It's what my coffee maker makes.) I don't always finish the second one on my drive but I will finish it when I get to the office.

Hehe, just a little bit ago I was reading through this thread (again) and had to go and make a cup of coffee.

If I'm not careful, it'll start the craving again...and the last thing I need right now is more caffeine!

I have about 4 cups in the morning when I'm at work, and then 4 more at home...coffee keeps the brain working.

Once I was so tired at work(eyes just would not stay open), I though it would be a good idea to do half Mountain Dew, half black coffee...the effects were...most interesting...
