This is sick. I'm thinking of switching to a series of 5 hour energy shots
look honestly it's one of the best routine choices i've ever made
i used to spend like 30-60 mins in vague caffeine headache land and i was always oversleeping and not having time to make coffee so i'd wander down to the coffee shop near work and spend 4 dollars on an iced coffee i could drink really fast while watchign the clock above the CVS across the street wind down way too quickly
now i just pop out of bed and read a book for half an hour and then mosey mellowly over to work
On Hipinion, posters taxed their bonds and brotherhood, pushing themselves to the brink as a board and as buds.

I've ordered a lot from them over the past few years but I feel like the quality isn't always great. You get what you pay for basically, prices and shipping are cheap.
Any particular recommendations? I have only tried a couple so far. The Guatemalan is my keeper so far.
The Renegade Guatemala was my go-to but last batch I got was not good. I love medium roasts with chocolate notes and that usually is the ticket.
For their lighter, more expensive roasts I really like the Costa Rican honey process when they have it. But I'm partial to Central American coffee!

We have the Beautiful Burundi now and it's not very good. I also tend to like Central American coffee the best.
You should check out Nagadi Coffee in Silver Spring. They only open to the public on Saturday mornings but the beans are great and the dorks who run the place make killer espresso. If I was a single cup brewer, I would rarely look elsewhere for beans.

I wish I could become one of those people that drinks coffee almost all waking hours but I just can't sleep. Instead I try to switch to tea after 10am and it sucks

yeah in retrospect that coffee ended up making me really irritable and anxious yesterday
That burst of productive coffee energy is really appealing though I’ve always been like a chilled out dorito dog mostly but the problem with that is it takes me forever to get anything done
