So....

 

What's an egg nog?

[ᗅᗺᗷᗅ]

An old medieval drink popular at Christmastime in North America.  Wikipedia entry.

Not nearly as delicious as wassail though.

[Haflinger]

Egg nog is moderately popular in the UK too I think, where it is nearly always drunk the proper way. North Americans drink it by the gallon as a non-alcoholic beverage, which is strange.

 

Alas I don't drink it anymore, the proper way or otherwise, due to lactose intolerance.

[Redezra]

I've never seen it

[Haflinger]

Here's a reasonably easy recipe for it: http://allrecipes.co...Nog/Detail.aspx

 

That would probably be a lot nicer than the stuff we buy in cartons by the truckload at Chrismastime though.

My mother makes it herself.  Good eggnog is really good.  Bad eggnog (the stuff from the cartons) is bleh.

[Thrash]

I drink the alcohol kind.

[Haflinger]

The stuff from the cartons is still nice with tequila though.

I'd try homemade nog. It might make me change my mind.

$3 for 1 coffee, that's even worse. I buy a tub of Folgers for $3 which makes 12 cups/day and lasts for a week.

 

Rich people, pfft.

 

 

im sorry wait what. Did i just read that it makes 12 cups a day. How do you figure this out? Who drinks 12 cups a day??

 

That CANNOT be good for you.

 

I dont drink coffee at all but baristas seem like the dumbest job (at least in the US) but it is also every rich white girls dream job probably since they cant get any other job in college.

Maybe he meant per week.
 
According to this 24% of all coffee drinkers drink 13 cups or more per week. The average for the daily drinkers is 3.1 cups per day, which is a lot less than 12 but works out to about 22 cups a week.

[m3g4tr0n]

I drink six a day, so pulling twelve isn't too far off. Although, you'd have an ulcer the size of a softball.

[ᗅᗺᗷᗅ]

I have a friend who is probably at or near twelve cups a day.  And no, it's not good for you! 

[Redezra]

I have one cup a week :3

[ᗅᗺᗷᗅ]

I can't remember the last time I had coffee.  In Saudi Arabia, maybe.  And that was Saudi coffee, closer to Turkish coffee.

[Conquest]

Last time I had coffee was when I was working a patrol from 9-5. And that's 9PM to 5AM haha

 

I grabbed a coffee to keep me warm and awake. I didn't really even feel any affect though. Who knows?

I fill the water to the 12 line. Between my wife and I, it's usually at the 2 line at the end of the morning.

I drink 2 Mocha Frappes a day. Mocha Cookie Crumble Frappe when its in season. I can tell you what places in most of Central Texas have the best ones and which Baristas work at what times at which Starbucks which make the damn things correctly.

 

BTW If you are a Barista and you fuck up my MOcha Frappe I will ruin your day. Blend the damn thing correctly and put the goddamn chocolate syrup on it.

 

Holy shit! I didn't realize you were in Texas. I'm in Cedar Park.
