He's not missing out on anything. Starbucks coffee is mediocre and overpriced. I should have known when the couple of times I've been to one I was the only non-foreign person besides the baristas.

No wonder people are so cranky on these forums, right?

A lot of people sell the fake Mary Jane out here. And, drug testing is still a thing here within my conservative state. If you fail 'the cup' you also fail at getting a job too.

Also, grocery prices are friggin' murder on my wallet man. A bag o' green might be cheaper than my last store visit, but I wanna eat.

I had to pass a piss test to get this job and they said my urine sample was immaculate.

I did a massive cleanse and drank like 3 gallons of water before going in to test. Life Finds A Way.

Same here. Never smoked cigarettes or weed or even tried it (in fact smoking the former puts me right off, they are absolutely stinking) and only been drunk once, when I was 20. I don't like the taste of booze though I only tried beer - maybe red wine or something would be different.

I also have zero interest in coffee or tea but I love hot chocolate (don't drink it often). I have a problem with soda too, it isn't good and I wanna stop.

The only thing I have done before which I had a slight problem with was prescription valium when I was unwell. I liked how it made me feel - it calmed my nerves and anxiety and I used it more than I should have. However, it was never a real addiction and I soon stopped it.

I am pretty happy about all of this because it means if I can drink more water, clean up my diet and get plenty of exercise there will be no drugs or drink getting in the way of my health.

There's a massive alcohol culture in Britain. So many people see it was a way to socialise, as if makes them a more interesting, outgoing person. I really don't understand it because when I see someone drunk I just think they are a total mess.

I used to be a really heavy smoker back when I used to drink a lot of alcohol. The hangovers I used to get were awful. Blacking out and waking up the next day not knowing what I did the night before, seeing the cringy posts I used to put up on my Facebook page as well Only smoke 2-3 cigarettes a day now. I tried weed before, I never liked the stuff, it always made me paranoid and jumpy.

Never drank coffee in my life (my dad loves it though), used to love tea but just mostly drink water or milk now.

I was never a fan of the taste of beer tbh I liked the taste of cider more. Seems like a lot more people are smoking weed now, I smell it every where I go. It's not just me because some of my family members said the same thing as well. People standing outside shops smoking it and all. I've even had people approach me when I was standing waiting for the bus trying to sell me weed as well. When I used to head out to night clubs a lot in the mid-late 2000's I was taking a lot of ecstasy pills. Tried LSD twice but wasn't a fan of it. Wasn't a fan of coke either, it made me feel irritable and restless.

Valium was the worst, I wasn't getting them from a doctor though and the dealer I was getting them from ended up getting arrested so I was off them cold turkey, never want to go through that again. Anxiety got that bad at one point i was afraid to leave the house. Been off alcohol and drugs for nearly 12 years.

I do love my coffee so I'm not even mad that this thread got bumped by a troll.

My latest journeys with coffee have taken me to some interesting new places. There is a new coffee shop in my area that has a bunch of Southeast Asia inspired coffee drinks and pastries. Yesterday I tried a Durian Latte, made with real durian fruit puree. Make sure you try durian fruit before you ever attempt something like this because it's definitely not for everyone.

There's also an orange juice americano with some tea in there and a lot of other drinks i've never seen anywhere else.

I had a really unique latte from a local spot here the other week, it had bergamot, vanilla, and coconut milk. It was really good I was actually surprised by how much I liked it; I'd probably get it again when I go back to that spot unless they have an interesting special-of-the-day or something
