ah yes, addiction
Addiction is when you are eagerly waiting to do something you enjoy. I myself am addicted to good food
I just had morning coffee.
Now I’m already excited for bed.Me when I was younger. Not that I’m not happy to have my morning cup, but it hits a little different when I can’t also relax since I’m watching two little kids in the morning.
I miss waking up at noon and just taking the world in while drinking good coffee.
Not addicted though
I’m clearly addicted to tasty food since I am sometimes eagerly waiting to get to eat it lol
By definition, it’s only an addiction if it affects the lives of yourself and/or others negatively. Which CAN be the case with caffeine, but this comic doesn’t show that.
Other examples of neutral to beneficial dependencies include oxygen, exercise, medication, and the winning smile of Hugh Jackman.
In casual conversation (such as on an internet forum) “addiction” can also mean “physiological dependence to something not ordinarily necessary”.
Caffeine creates very strong physiological dependence.
In addition, due to its ubiquity, the actual harms of caffeine go unrecognised: people who are caffeine dependent are more tired and irritable when they haven’t had any than if they were not dependent, and also tends to cause headaches and stomach problems.
Yeah, had to think of this right away:
“Nope. I don’t gamble.”
“I bet I can get you to gamble by the end of the day.”
“You’re on!”
“Oh man… I don’t know how I’ll do it, but you are going down buddy!”
Is this from something or did you just make it up?
Seems like it could be from Dumb & Dumber or a similar farce, but I don’t recall Lloyd Christmas or the other one having a gambling addiction 🤔
It’s from Dumb & Dumber lol
Such a gem of a movie, gotta rewatch it soon 😁❤️
Probably the most harmless addiction there is though.
The rising price of feline excrament beans will eventually bankrupt you though.
Ignore the downvotes, it was a solid joke.
Do you think all coffee is shit out by cats?
That idiot must be fancy as FUCK to think all coffee is kopi luwak! 😄
Sorry, honestly thought the /s was implied. Anyways, what I pay for coffee has doubled recently, even for the cheapest figurative shit.
Just Kopi Luwak beans
I’m on Great Value espresso roast.
I hate to admit it… but I have had this experience before
Nothing inherently wrong with looking forward to pleasurable things, including your morning coffee 🤷
Me too. Don’t hate it.
Esp. when after an eternity of sleeplessness you look at the clock and it’s still hours til daylight.
I had this experience last night about a new chicory cold brew!
I just picked up a Nespresso machine (late tonight) and this is the first thing I see on my Lemmy feed. I am absolutely ecstatic for tomorrow morning!
I get what you’re saying and the appeal of the category of appliances, but did you have to get the Nestlé one?
They’re one of the most heinous consumer-facing companies in the world and you should really be boycotting them…
And all of those capsule coffeemakers are extremely wasteful, not to mention expensive.
The pods are all aluminum and recyclable, which we do here.
Didn’t know Nestle owned them. But thanks for ruining my morning. 😉
Also, this is the only one I’d like. Keurig tastes terrible. I’m normally an Aeropress Café Americano person.
