some people like coffee but have an adverse reaction to caffeine.

Except caffeine is naturally present in coffee so removing it changes the taste.

so go blog about it, nerd.

Some people like coffee-like flavors

Some like a warm one before bed

I just started a new job at an upscale coffee shop/bakery and I had to suppress laughter every time a middle aged woman paid three dollars for a styrafoam cup of decaf.

And you people do realise that most people really don't drink coffee or think that it's the best thing of waking up.

If the best thing of waking up is folgers in your cup you should kill yourselves and leave the rest of us alone. Please. I don't drink coffee and I don't care about it or you creeps that appear to depend on it.

>>5385378
why the fuck would you drink that? It's like drinking alcohol free beer or wine

>getting this angry at at least a third of the world
have a cup of coffee, friend, you'll feel better

I don't get your crap, OP. Some people can't drink it or too much of it. My sister had an arrhythmia, and if they messed up at a restaurant, she would have an adverse reaction.

I have no issue buying decaf coffee for the nightcap, or the third or fourth cup that day. I love coffee, but I don't need to caffeinate so much all day and night. At some point, I get a bit of a blood pressure change or a tinge of a headache or tension in my jaw.

No I really wont. coffee makes me want to go to sleep, it's boring. And that stupid starbucks smells makes me want to vomit. I used to have to walk by twice a day wnen going and coming from work. Seeing the morons standing in line outside of it plus the stench of the smell was enough to make me want to heave from time to time.

That's serious, I don't need the bullshit.

>starbucks
>coffee

do you have a learning disability of some sort?

>>5385426
I enjoy coffee, but yeah sometimes the smell can be overwhelming.

Protips to OP:

1. You couldn't tell the difference between a decaf and non decaf blindfolded.

2. A good decaf is always better than a bad regular coffee

3. One does as one pleases, stop making threads just to point out that some people like some things you don't

Caffeine doesn't affect me. It does nothing to wake me up, give me energy, or keep me awake at night. I only started drinking about a month ago, a cup a day, so it can't be that I've become conditioned to it already.

It's these self centered threads that make me believe that there's no hope for the future of mankind.
OP, many people enjoy the flavor of coffee, but not everyone likes the effects of caffeine. I personally enjoy a cup after dinner, but if I don't drink decaf, I won't sleep at all during the night. There's many reasons why people might prefer decaf. Stop being such a narcissist.

I can drink it if I have to, an Irish coffee one or twice every few years is just fine, but it does nothing for me. I'm certainly not going stand in line outside of a fucking starbucks like a NYC import that needs to stand in line to be seen. The smell really does give me an upset stomach, then I have to deal with the fucking nasty subway smells, especially in the summer.

This is just one of the reasons why I find is so much nicer here in upstate NY. I've never seen a starbucks or a coffee place up here and I hope never to.

>>5385431
No you do. I don't care about either. What's there to learn?

Please educate me if you're capable.

Not that guy, but starbucks is the mcdonalds of coffee. I know exactly what you mean by "that starbucks smell". It's a combination of scorched milk and overroasted beans, along with nasty flavored syrups. Even people with low standards don't go there. It's morons to the last customer.

>>5385492
I thought McDonalds was the McDonalds of coffee

>>5385498
Only with chicken mcnuggets

>>5385492
I know, the really annyong thing is seeing these self absorbed starbucks chicks who think that they do something for a real company standing nearby balancing their starbucks coffee and their phone. Once I see that, it's time to move because in general the bitch is gonna spill it and don't want to be the target of that spill.

It's bad enough riding the nyc subway in the first place but dealing with thoughtless cunts, and it's always females, ALWAYS, just makes me want to move away from their thoughtless cuntholes.

>>5385378
there aren't it's a myth

>>5385513
>I hate people who balance their coffee on their phone
