    I hate coffee. And caffeine sucks...I had a can of Pepsi last night and was still up at three a.m. (I don't normally drink caffeine at all, so it hit me hard I guess!) Stupid caffeine.

    I LOVE coffee, and caffiene! I drink it all day long. It makes me much happier and energetic, at least until it wears off. . . but then I drink more! To minimize stomach upset, nervousness, etc, I think it is better to consume small amounts all day long, rather than drink a whole pot of coffee in the morning.

    i can only drink coffee with lots of sugar/sweet-in-low/equal and of chours creamer. but i don't feel any different after drinking it, not even an hour after drinking it. it seemes to make me feel even more sleepier. warmth always makes me sleepy. i always get more energetic at nighttime anyway (somewhere between 9:00 PM and 12:00 PM) i get really funny. when i have to work from like 4-10, you'll definetly notice my behavior change during the day. at 4 i'll be tired and somwhere inbetween ok-happy/work is driving me crazzy! but by 9, i'll be running around the store like some kind of looneytoon!!:p :D

    I really like coffee. It gives me a warm feeling inside and wakes me up. I don't drink it too much though. If I decide to drink it one day...then I will feel like crap if I don't drink it the next day. I had a Home Ech. class and the teacher usually let us make coffee everyday so I'd have a cup of coffee in the mid-morning to help me get through the rest of my classes...once I didn't have the class anymore I had problems staying awake.

    I like black tea. It tastes better than coffee, and is a lot healthier too. I'll drink coffee maybe once a year. The only caffeine I actually drink is from coke.

    Always hit up Starbucks in the morning and hook myself up with a Mocha Frappucino and the whipcream on top, Tall size. :) Yum.

    Caffiene is good for the soul and coffee is absolutely wonderful.

    coffee has mood elevators as well as caffeine. it tends to lift one's spirits. but the sad fact is that it is depeleting to kidney energy. it basically takes a withdrawal from your energy bank account. drinking coffee is like taking more from your body than you are giving it.


    tea is much more gentle, especially green tea. tea always has health benefits, as does coffee, but with tea the benefits outweigh the detriment. coffee is simply depleting.

    also, coffee is an irritant to the prostate, and so causes frequent urination with males moreso than with females tho' it also makes females pee more as it is a diuretic.

    coffee is very acidic on the digestive tract and therefore destructive in still another way.

    the rule of thumb is: all things in moderation.

    the higher truth is that good nutrition makes the use of caffeine not only useless, but highly undesireable.

    love.

    i agree

    but it beats getting to bed earlier

    personally, i dont like most coffee. i like instant coffee.

    i get a few spoons of instant coffee, more spoons than that of sugar, an inch of boiling water, and teh rest cold milk

    i hate hot coffee
    or 'good' coffee. caus 'good' coffee as most people call it, tastes like shit.
    but sweet, milky, strong instant coffee... well i prefer it any day

    i like starbucks coffee a lot if its not too hot. apparently its meant to taste like shit?

    I love caffene in any form whether its coke or coffee. In fact just give me some coffee beans and I will put it in a bowl and eat it like cereal.

    But of course! You're talking to a chick who survives the day on caffeine. Without it, ugghh, not a good thing. Cranky, tired, and just plain blah.

    both green and black tea have caffeine. I have 1 to 2 cups of coffee, a few days in the week. mostly drink tea; herb, black and green. Coffee makes me happy, and sleepy

    That's what I do, too...swap between coffee and tea throughout the week. Some coffee, some tea, and plenty of water...although I've kinda fell off the wagon in the last few days and have had not much else besides coffee. No wonder I'm in kind of a wierd space.

    I tried to give up mountain dew last weekend, first day I was ok, second day my head felt like it was going to explode from the pressure in my head. So at 4 in the morning I ran to the store and bought some dew, sound like a junkie trying to get another fix...
