Me, an old person: “Why don’t they just drink black coffee instead?”
Because it makes my pee taste funny
*spits out coffee i mean pee
*Spits out pee I mean monster
If you drink enough monster, kidney stones will stop you from peeing
I drink so much monster, I have marble sacks for kidneys.

Me, a young person: “both coffee and energy drinks are expensive. I’ll keep drinking tap water when I’m thirsty.”

Because black coffee tastes even worse than Monster does. (And has a lot less caffeine.)
Maybe as you get older, you crave bitter things. That and the fear of the diabeetus monster. Artificial sweeteners can also cause health issues. That said, a quality blonde roast coffee can be pretty nice and not too strong.
I do like a quality blonde
most common artificial sweeteners are completely fine
Bitter foods are an acquired taste. Sweet foods are not. I remember reading somewhere that sweet foods become less attractive once you’ve grown up, but nothing about bitter foods becoming more attractive.
I always thought that people acquire a taste for coffee for the same reason they acquire a taste for beer: repeated exposure. Coffee is the cheapest caffeinated drink (at least in the US), and beer is the cheapest alcoholic drink. Both taste like ass the first time you drink them, but you put up with the taste because you want to get wired or drunk. After repeated exposure, some people grow to like the taste.
Can confirm, I hated beer until I became an alcoholic.
Am I too old to get this joke? I do have a Guru from time to time but I guess it’s not enough.
There’s a stereotype that trans femmes drinking monster energy drinks
After first seeing the term trans femme, I was very sad trans homme wasn’t in use.
Yeah, it’s trans masc instead, but it did give us the very fun trans masc trans mask.
I think masc would go with fem, not femme. It probably started that way and evolved from misinterpretation of verbal to written word
I might be a girl then cuz I never leave things half done
Same! It’s either less than 10% or over 90% for me.
Please don’t tell me you’re one of the people who drinks almost all of it but then goes -OK I’m done, try not to look at that very obvious amount of drink I still have in my glass-
That’s what my bro does and it’s real bad for cleaning the dishes…
I was more talking about other things like projects or stories I write. I try finish my drinks.
