    I just use it for making me tea or hot chocolate.

    Still baffles me how everyone needs coffee to get them going in the morning ... isn't that what a shower does?
    It's called an addiction. Surprisingly, that's one I don't have. It's all in the head.

    Then there's using coffee as an excuse to make a pointless thread. That's a different kind of addiction.

    It makes a change from all the contentious stuff.

    It's called having a little fun. Isn't what the lounge is for? At least this addiction doesn't harm anyone

    And I think it's better than using death and other sad destructive things as an excuse to make a thread in the lounge. But I suppose it's pretty funny when people are dying n shit. hardy har har

    We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language, for we intend to see that the crucible turns our people out as Americans, of American nationality, and not as dwellers in a polyglot boarding-house; and we have room for but one soul loyalty, and that is loyalty to the American people. ~Theodore Roosevelt~

    Yeah, we post all this awful stuff going on around the world. And it is good to have a bit of fun. However "pointless" it may be

    Nicely said.

    Everything has its place and due time. But we all need a break from the depressing, angst-ridden issues of the world. And it's far from pointless ... it's HUMAN ...

    It's called a Tavern by any other name is still a tavern. But you call it what you want. Same thread, different board.

    One thing about people (self-proclaimed, no less) that think they are smarter than everyone else ... they're rather obvious. Especially when they think they're so smart they use the same game over and over.

    Fool me once ... that worked. Twice doesn't happen.

    Can you please just let this drop, or place one another on ignore? Thing's from "the real world" or from other boards should stay at those places. All that happens with them here is to stir up issues. I see no reason to screw up good and fun threads if you have no interest in them. I will clean this thread up and move the posts to the cage.

    Fortunately the hens at work are not allowed that luxury on company time. I said they were similar not completely lazy and unproductive.
