Well it's always coffee time, and breakfast is good anytime, so there you go.

I usually have Coffee because it's easier to make. Tea is a little of a hassle but I'm lazy :P

I've heard that the coffee in America is crap. You only have to look at Starbucks. Your milk it crappy too. I can't see how anyone gets a good brew in the states. I feel sorry for you guys, you're like a third world country in terms of coffee quality which is funny when you consider most of the best coffee is grown in third world countries.

That is irony isn't it? My small brain can't handle complex things like irony - Pica pica, what's the definitive ruling? - everyone knows Brits have superior english abilities and Pica's more superior than most, in a humble sort of way.

Anything grown in Central or South America is easy to find.  Why trust a Brit on coffee anyway?

too true, why trust a brit?

I heard the continent is the best place for coffee, but i never touch the stuff 'cept to sell it.

and the people who buy the loose beans, here at least, are 80% of the time total nobends,

though i think it is because the people that buy the loose beans in england think they are connoisseurs.

Someone who travels between our two decrepit nations told me that you should always order coffee out, but always make tea at home, because it's hard to get the perfect or even adequate tea, but easy enough to get okay coffee.

Though I once smelt a McDonald's coffee and it smelled of mud...i suppose it had been ground that morning.

It's a lot harder to find good tea here, and almost never in a resturaunt, where they serve some stuff like Stash or similar brand.  But if you go to some of the real good food stores, you can find pretty good tea, all imported of course.  At least Justin Lloyd, which seems to be at least OK.

But we have two companies Peet's and Tully's that do their own local roasting, and a couple of old line family places that still roast on site, like in North Beach.  So the good coffee is always there, and yeah, I buy loose beans, well not too lose, I put them in a bag and all.

I'd never drink McDee's coffee, iccky.

Oh, God!!! not Charbucks!!! Almost the worst coffee in the country. Barely a step above Conoco.

Wow I had starbucks for the first time the other day and thought it was a step above anything I've had before. Not like I've had the supposed best or anything though. It didn't have that acidic, catpee flavor that most others have.

For the morning I do cocacola like an idiot, I really need to switch to tea or juice but am hooked!

-looks around confusedly- I drink McD's/BK's iced coffee sometimes, it's nothing amazing but it's alright. Gives me caffeine and doesn't taste half bad.

Anyways COFFEEEEEEEEEEEE FTW. <33 -infatuated look-

The standard coffee rule applies, which states that where ever, and whenever you really, really, need coffee, what they have will be the worst coffee you've ever tasted.

Wouldn't know, I have a very serious allergy to offices, break out if I even get near one.  But I know a lot about driving long distances at night, which is where the rule comes from.  Nebraska to be exact.  About mile marker 200 (out of 490).

If you are looking for coffee to get your heart started, stop at your local truck stop. 
If you need something to strip paint or rust, stop at your local truck stop for a cup of coffee.
If you need to increase the octane of your gas, stop at your local truck stop for a cup of coffee.
If you think that Starbuck's is bad coffee, stop at your local truck stop for a cup of coffee.

Dr. Pepper and spiced chocolate milk or hot chocolate (mmm, cinnamon spice, cayenne pepper, and chili pepper, how you do mix with chocolate).
