Every morning now you’ll see me at a Starbucks with a larger hot water pouring instant coffee packets into it

I’m not ashamed
Even if I was was rich I wouldn’t pay 15.00 for a fucking coffee lol

I call it a Starbucks workaround lol

    trust me: if you're the kind of person that a) finds instant coffee acceptable or b) finds the stuff starbucks serves acceptable - you don't know anything about coffee.

    @tosensei oh no I like good coffee but sometimes a person needs to choke down on their pigheaded stupid pretentiousness and just make do lol

    @AvatarOfKaine nope. if you _really_ like good coffee, you'd punch someone offering you instant garbage

    Buying good coffee beans a grinder and a bialetti and there you go, best cheap starbucks workaround

    Also less waiting time, than at starbucks

    @tosensei Maybe you would.

    If one likes good coffee, does that mean one can't also enjoy a coffee-taste-drink from a tiny hermetic packaging?

    I like a _really_ good pasta. I also like insta-ramen as a different meal from time to time.

    Not mutually exclusive.

    @catgirldev "cheap" 8 dollar for a fucking beverage???
    In germany its 5-7 euro for a frappucino

    @catgirldev exactly the comparison to apple is perfectly fitting

    @jonas-w The primary use case for Macbooks is hipsters hanging out at Starbucks, after all.

    @AvatarOfKaine Yet, going into a Starbucks with your own hot water and instant coffee isn't ?

    If you don't approuve the prices/business why bother going there ?

    Stay 5 minutes longer at home and enjoy any coffee you want. (You can even take an irish coffee...)

    @catgirldev I used to be able to get a 24 oz drip coffee for 1.80 or so and it didn’t taste any worse

    @jonas-w will admit their camera is better though

    @Grumm well primarily because when I’m stopping at Starbucks it’s because I’m traveling and need a place to escape the sun charge devices etc

    Otherwise I never go to Starbucks and do indeed either brew my own coffee drink work coffee or buy a coffee at one of the convenience stores from the big brewed batches

    I will say however that some Starbucks are well designed and classy establishments like the ones in Illinois or one or two of them in Massachusetts

    Surely It's cheaper to buy a travel kettle?

    I found a really good combo:

    - whole milk warmed for 2 minutes to make just hot enough

    - 1 spoonful of Mexican instant coffee

    - 1 spoonful of Swiss Miss cocoa

    I would not call this good coffee, but it sure tastes really good. Probably not healthy at all either.

    @Demolishun it’s boiled bean dust with a stimulant in it
    Personal taste is really what it boils down to heh

    @rarboot for a "quick hit", i recommend cold brew. i'm making an extract that keeps fresh several weeks and just needs to be mixed 1:4 with boiled water for perfect coffee.

    and in a pinch, it's very effective against constipation
