I think that's regional, maybe to east coast US (or just NYC)? Anywhere else I've been in the US "regular coffee" referred to black coffee.

I'm in Western Canada. As an example, Tim Horton's calls a regular coffee 1 cream and 1 sugar nationally.

But, I was only pointing this out because it's funny considering the point the comic is trying to make.

Interesting, didn't know that it was like that throughout Canada too. None of those options are available to me in the Midwest US. And agree! Definitely think it's funny to point out, I just was giving more context because I (incorrectly) thought it was only "regular" in a small region.

Where are you that still has Tim Hortons? All of the ones in the Twin Cities are no longer in business. I'm slightly disappointed, but based on what I've heard from Canadians if I get to try it I'll probably still be slightly disappointed.

There are still quite a few around Ohio. I haven't been in years though, because yea, it's disappointing now.
