Caffeine has got to be among the shittiest drugs to get addicted to. There's no euphoria; you just get anxiety and can't sit still. And then in a couple of hours you get tired and want to go to sleep.

I just don't understand how people get addicted to the stuff. Even when I needed to drink it for my job, the moment I quit that place was the same moment I quit drinking coffee. It's simply not a fun drug at all. There are much better stimulants out there.

Because coffee is fucking delicious. At least good coffee is. No one drinks coffee for the caffeine, it's for the taste and warmth.

If that were the case, then decaf would be more popular.

It could be argued that the some of the processes used to decaffeinate the beans can substantially change the flavour profile.
