I seldom drink coffee either. Bitter.
When I drink it for the caffeine, lots of sugar.

More succinctly, it is endemic to Ethiopia -
It was first exported out of Ethiopia to Yemen, which now grows an exceptional coffee. All coffee grown around the world has its roots in Ethiopia
I used to own a specialty coffee shop and can go on and on about coffee, lol
So Im a dumbass today! Was out doing some shopping and Im running low on some of my favorite juices that require steeping so I stopped in to pick up some VG. As they were putting it in the bag for me I said "no thanks I dont need a bag" cause you know, no need to waste a bag for a couple of 250ml bottles of VG. After I finished buckling my daughter into her car seat I quickly went around to get in myself and start the car since its -30 Celcius with the wind chill today. Started the car and put it in gear. Heard a loud popping noise as I pulled out and looked in the rear view mirror to see one of the 2 bottles I just bought flattened with VG all around it, obviously having fallen out of my pocket and rolling to align itself perfectly underneath my tire. I guess these few batches will factor in as double the price of my usual 
I had a dumbass moment similar to this yesterday. I went to Walmart for headphones and a charging cable for my iPad. I used the self checkout because the lines were 3-4 deep with carts full of groceries. I scanned and bagged the items, inserted my card into the chip reader and selected the $20 back option to use for gas. Grabbed the receipt but not the cash.So Im a dumbass today!

When I got to the gas station, looked for the cash then remembered that I didn't grab it. Went back to Walmart where the CSR was waiting, she had grabbed my $20 in hopes that I came back. I got it changed and gave $1 to the donation box for homeless people on my way back out the door.

At least you had a happy ending
I did and that's why I gave the money to the homeless thing.At least you had a happy ending
I didn't know those were available at Walmart these days.

I have seen the people that work at Walmart....Even if they are available....does it still qualify as "happy"???
The CSR didn't look too happy to see me show back up yesterday but she didn't hesitate to tell me that she snatched up the money I left behind. I put her on the good humans list as she didn't have to fess up.

Was he giving out unhappy endings?I have a cousin that got fired from his job as a Walmart greeter
I was at Walmart this morning, they had Samsung televisions on sale.....Wish I had a camera with me. At checkout in the next lane was a guy who had to weight 400 lbs, he had a shopping cart loaded from bottom to top with nothing but soda and chips....couldn't believe my eyes.I have a cousin that got fired from his job as a Walmart greeter

Wonder if it was my cousin - he probably weighs close to that
Was he paying with food stamps?

Anyone here try it?
I have hours and hours of flying time in the coming months and am thinking about it...
A note from fortune:
A hard-luck actor who appeared in one coloossal disaster after another
finally got a break, a broken leg to be exact. Someone pointed out that it's
the first time the poor fellow's been in the same cast for more than a week.
Kind of reminds me of the tale from the movie My Name Is Nobody.finally got a break, a broken leg to be exact. Someone pointed out that it's
the first time the poor fellow's been in the same cast for more than a week.

Well, having spent the last hour and then some in that Atlanna traffic we discussed yesterday, all I can say is:
Y'all seen this cool app called Wayz? It at least tells you there's a traffic jam ahead, even if it still has no clue WHY -- well, sometimes there's a cop snarling things up with their fucking epilepsy-inducing blue lights. I posted a "heavy traffic" advisory, and got a thank you from a fellow Wayzer just before we got home. That was nice.

One thing that article about Atlanna traffic neglected to mention, are the Atlanna rubber-neckers. They're not just garden-variety "lookie-loos"... these people will dislocate their entire upper anatomy in order to see what the trouble is in the far right lane of THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY.
95% of all traffic congestion in Atlanna is CAUSED by these total fucking MORONS. Today: there were several notations of cars on the shoulder, in the Wayz app... and miles before each of them, traffic would come to a virtual stand-still. Andria

Oh, and there were 10 or 20 raindrops, which also brought traffic to a standstill.

Woe - maybe the mayor should declare a disaster, or at least an area-wide emergency!
I have that same app except for iPhones it's called Waze.Well, having spent the last hour and then some in that Atlanna traffic we discussed yesterday, all I can say is:

Sssshhhh, don't give him any ideas, he'll fucking do it, then go on TV to talk about what a brave and noble thing he did! Pre-empting something good on TV, no doubt!

What would we do with cat and dog poop without those bags?
GFY alert: Time to do the dumbass clock change tonight.

The original (not live) version from their 1971 album Jukin' is better IMO. Hard one to find though - couldn't cough it up on YouBoob.
They are so dumbass in mAssachusetts about the weather. If a meteorologist speculates there might be a half inch of snow coming - three days out - they will close the schools in advance, give all the "non emergency personnel" a paid gubbermint holiday, and declare a state of emergency. Just in case.
When I was a child (yeah - I said it) living around lake Erie and all that lake effect snow, you had to have a foot of snow on the ground and another foot coming down hard before they would even think about closing a school.

Yeah I fucking hate that. Being raised by a lady who firmly believed in Happy Hour, I already like dinner later than 99% of everybody... and it's really hard to get interested in making dinner when it looks like the fucking middle of the afternoon outside.

Imagine how they act HERE. When we do actually get some snow... whether it fucks up anything or not... they pre-empt EVERYTHING ON ALL CHANNELS that night, and maybe the next night too, just to tell everyone "it's ok, it's melting already." IDIOTS.

I'd say it's a verifiable fact: the retards have taken control of all programming and broadcasting and news. All of it. Not one person involved in any of that appears to have a single functional brain cell.

Evening fugee's. Hope yall having a better night than me Found out I have a paycheck and 3/4 of one left and then I am out of pay, and they just decided to send me the workmans comp insurance forms Friday, That is going to take at least 60 days to go thru and they might reject it. Expecting a fight with the doctors over that too. They dont want to admit the meds they put me on caused the problem and keep telling me its me not trying, I go to rehab and do two minutes of exertion and my head is swimming but its my fault, not the fucked up meds they put me on. Needless to say I am in a real piss poor mood tonight,

It truly does suck on Saturdays -- my husband was watching a PBS thing flogging 60s rock n roll earlier, because there's nothing else on. But I do like a good many primetime shows during the week, though quite a few are currently on hiatus. I was pleasantly surprised by the return of Sleepy Hollow; I thought when the black female character was killed, that was the end of it, but it came back. I LERVVVVVVVE the guy playing Ichabod Crane, he's gorgeous, and has that spiffy brit accent.
