Oh and Riffy...
WTF is up with this coconut iced coffee crap?
It is my considered opinion that there is only ONE thing that is acceptable to add to coffee, and that is whiskey.
You put anything else in coffee and you are either gay, or an old woman.
Coffee is made to drink black. And it is certainly the only MANLY way to drink it.
I am always suspicious of any establishment that, when you ask for coffee, they refer you to a menu board.
I was at a Starbucks once and had, roughly, this conversation with the little dink behind the counter.
Starbuck's Dink: What can I get for you sir? Our specials today are Mocha Mint Soy Decaf Frappacino and...
SS: Regular coffee, black.
SD: What blend would you like sir?
SS: I don't really care, just make sure it's high test, and black.
SD: Will our house blend be OK?
SS: Uh, I guess. As long as it's black and has caffeine in it.
SD: Would you like any of our flavorings today sir?
SS: Yeah, I want coffee flavored coffee. Black.
SD: Would you care for any nutmeg or cinnimon?
SS: Look dude, I just want a cup of black coffee. Do you have black coffee? Can't you just walk over to that rack of thermoses and pour me a cup of black coffee? I'll pay you extra if you'll just pick up that cup (SS points to the stack of to go cups beside the cash register) and put some regular black coffee in it, and do it without asking me any more questions. Seriously, I'll give you a dollar tip. Just get me some black coffee right now.
SD: Well sir, it's just not that easy, we have so many different kinds of coffee and coffee drinks that we have to...
SS: (Covers ears with hands.) Never mind dude....(SS walks out.)
The only time I've been to a Starbucks since then was on the way home from the Philly 9/12 show on the turnpike. Captive audience. If the Sbarro would have been open, I woulda got my coffee there.
New Yorkers got it right. You order coffee black, coffee light(with milk), or coffee regular(milk and sugar). There are no specials, no mocha mint decaf soy latte crap, no fucking coffee menu. Well, I guess there is if you go to Starbucks.
Dunkin Donuts has all that crap too, but if I go in one of those places and say "Can I have a medium black coffee please?", I don't have to play 20 questions to get the fucking stuff. You know what I mean?
Maybe I drink too much coffee.... |

Yeah SS, they have fucked up coffee as much as they have fucked up beer in the past. Light beer? WTF? Cinnamon coffee latte espresso? WTF?
Say it with me everyone: "Your slip is starting to show, Clarence." |

not to mention its a tad gay too |

Try ordering coffee in a US airport at 6am these days. ALL you want is caffeine and to be left alone. 15 minutes later, having denied more menu items than you knew possible, and had to make pivotal choices on a subset of them, you may get a sip... |

Hey now Essy....wait up here man. The deal is this. On my way to work everyday I get one large assed cup of Coconut flavoured ice coffee. Why? Because I can power it down,and get an immediate caffine jolt. It's all about the jolt before I get to work.
As for coffee. I typically take my coffee black,or with milk. No sugar though. Never sugar! Except ofcourse,when I'm drinking my one large Coconut ice coffee.
I hate that Starbucks crap as well. Ask pdog or Feej about the fucked up froo-froo shit they gave me at the Starbucks at the Marriott in NYC. I was very thirsty,after a Stones filled party night,so I opted,again,for a coffee drink that would quench my thirst as well as wake my tired ass up. So I order an ice coffee. The chick asks if I want regular or Mocha. So I say,"Fuck it lets celebrate! Make it a Mocha!" Five minutes later I get this goddamned monstrosity that makes me feel gay just rememebering it. She loaded me up with whipped cream,chocholate shavings,and chocholate sauce dizzled all over it.
I just wanted a cup of iced coffee,and to not question my own manhood,and this bitch hands me a fucking Castro District,froo-froo,"Look at me I'm gay!",fucking ice cream sundae posing as a cup of ice coffee.
I did my best to conceal it as I drank it,but I still was quite embarrassed,and felt bad that pdog and Fiji had to stand next to me. Needless to say I drank it fast and have been trying to put it out of my mind ever since. So,you know,thanks for that.

PDog and Fiji are both Howes for even standing with you at a Starbucks, while you ordered swish juice.
Holy piss on a pop-moof, you guys really are a bunch of mince pies! |

I'm down with Coconut Ice.
It was one of several new flavors test mahketed last summa
at our local D & D, as the distribution centah is here
in our town.
It rocks the house.
Riffy, when I saw the "Mr Hook" in your post, it was vintage 70's flashback material for me...
Brings back all things '70's for me...
Tango, Maximus Super, Miller smalls 48 case, Acapulco Gold, my convertible Fairlane with 12 speakahs, standing while driving on Ole Cape Cod...
THE COVER OF THE ROLLING STONE
Oh, we’re big rock singers.
We got golden fingers.
And we’re loved everywhere we go.
We sing about beauty,
And we sing about truth
At ten thousand dollars a show.
We take all kinds of pills
To give us all kind of thrills,
But the thrill we’ve never known
Is the thrill that’ll getcha
When you get your picture
On the cover of the Rolling Stone.
Rolling Stone...
Wanna see my picture on the cover.
Stone...
Wanna buy five copies for my Mother.
Stone...
Wanna see my smiling face
On the cover of the Rolling Stone.
I got a freaky old lady
Named Cocaine Katy
Who embroiders all my jeans.
Got my poor old grey-haired daddy
Drivin’ my limousine.
It’s all designed to blow our minds,
But our minds won’t really get blown
Like the blow that’ll getcha
When you get your picture
On the cover of the Rolling Stone.
We gotta lotta little teenage blue-eyed groupies
Who do anything we say.
We got a genuine Indian guru
Who’s teaching us a better way.
We got all the friends that money can buy,
So we never have to be alone.
And we keep getting richer,
But we can’t get our picture
On the cover of the Rolling Stone.
You want more?
Sure...

Peter Criss of KISS fame?
My first concert ever. Passed out on the sidewalk BEFORE the show--always one to attempt to keep up with the boys....
I did regain consciousness and get to the show. I knew all the fucking words. THe 70's....... |

*********************
You bring up my fifth concert, where I found the underside of a tarp covering the football field more exciting than the show. And don't go giving this "keep up with the boys" crap, as the chicks I ran with could drink most boys under the table, along with getting an A for performance under the table....

I once met Philthy Animal Taylor of Motorhead at a 7-11 in Hollywood. 7-11 usually has decent coffee. But I usually just drink a pot or two of whatever is on sale. Black, of course. |
