spndnchz Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 I'm with you, Chz -- I got one several years ago because I live alone and just brew one cup to take with me on the way to work, so it's not worth the time and cleanup to make a full pot. (That, and I somehow always overestimate how much ground coffee to use and end up with stuff that tastes awful.) Most of the varieties I get work out to around 50-55 cents a cup, which is more expensive than brewing a pot but still far less than Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts, etc. And I like the variety as well. I generally only do coffee, but I buy four boxes at a time and get different brands and brew strengths so I can pick something that suits me and still have things my dad will drink when he comes to visit. I love that thing. Edit: Hmm, maybe this should be in the "Things That are Awesome" thread, lol. Awesome women think alike :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darksabre Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 Holy coffee snobs! Having 1 cup of coffee is like going into a bar and ordering 3 chicken wings. Do it right kids...... Like Sabre Dance I have a Cuisinart...but a 12 cup with stainless steel insulated caraffe. The coffee stays hot and tastes good for a good 3-4 hours. What do these Prius-K-Cups cost? You can make a pot of very good coffee for $1. Now you're in for it. I'm going to make a pot and cascade you all with a few dozen Darcy Sucks posts in about an hour when I'm at peak. Could never just drink one cup of coffee. I tend to just make a pot and let it sit for a day or so. If I don't drink it all at once, hey, throw it in the microwave. I do like the gourmet fancy stuff though. Starbucks French roast is the only coffee that still gives me a little buzz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueBlueGED Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 I'm with GoDD and d4rk on coffee....can't have just 1 cup. I generally make a half pot in the morning to get through the day, then have another half pot at night. I understand the merits of a Keurig, but it's definitely not for me.

darksabre Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 I remember when I got my wisdom teeth out. I was still doing theater tech stuff back then.

qwksndmonster Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 (edited) I remember when I got my wisdom teeth out. I was still doing theater tech stuff back then. The day after I was climbing around in the rafters of my high school aiming lights and drooling blood all over the place. :lol: :sick: Funny story about post widsom teeth surgery: I ran into my girlfriend and her father right after she got her wisdom teeth taken out. We both live in Elmira, but we ran into eachother completely by at random at the McDonald's in Ithaca (fifty minutes away). She was drugged up laying in the car and didn't believe me when I told her who I was. :P Complaint: Yesterday, my new laptop was supposed to be delivered to my house but UPS bitched out because of the weather conditions (they weren't that bad). Today, I went on rotation at the hospital an hour later than usual because of a scheduling conflict. On a normal day, I would've been home in plenty of time to beat the UPS guy but, as fate would have it, I missed him by fifteen minutes. :wallbash: I'm going to pick it up at the ups office tonight. Luckily, the place is right next to my brother's new apartment so I can go pick it up while I help him move furniture. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been worth the gas.

nfreeman Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 Please stay away from the computer when you get home and are still feeling the effects of the anesthetic. We don't need you professing your love for chz again. :lol: Speak for yourself. That was high entertainment. Don't go sucking on anything until you're healed. You'll get dry socket.

Samson's Flow Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 Speak for yourself. That was high entertainment. Especially since that wild night was during a stretch when the Sabres were sucking and there were no games for a bit. We all needed some light-hearted posting... :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrader Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 I just had an unplanned 2 hour phone call for a project that was all based upon one major assumption: "If they allow us to break from the standard procedure, this is what we will do" Don't you think we should check and see if they'll let us break protocol like that first before going off on a long-winded planning session?
