i feel like so many people the world over need to just fucking buy caffeine pills: cheaper per unit of caffeine, doesn't taste like shit (so many people don't make good coffee anyways), and way more convenient.

"might" implies it's a lot more likely to happen than it is, it takes like 10 pills of 100mg each to get the classic caffeine dependency with headaches and stuff, and to reach genuinely serious effects you would have to chug the entire bottle (assuming it's a 50-pill bottle).

A fellow Student of mine had some symptoms from drinking high coffein black tea and then using some coffein tablet. (Everything Was well afterward, but high jitteryness, Lack of focus and high heat rate aren't good)

Bruh. I love the flavor of coffee.

that's not what i'm talking about, i'm talking about how people make the shittiest coffee imaginable and oftentimes merrily let it burn.

I don't mind coffee flavoured chocolate, but most of the coffee that people drink is so furiously bitter that i can only barely taste the coffee flavour.

Oof. Honestly drip coffee is fine and super easy to make. I personally like cold brew and you pretty much can't fuck that up.
