How many cups of coffee is too many at one sitting?
I usually drink 4, laced with spenda-fortified chocolate and hazelnut compounds, one cup of non-dairy creamer to add thickness, and topped with a small dollop of nonfat whipped cream because it's impossible to cheat out of sugar entirely.

Tomorrow I'm aiming for 6. Without the whipped cream.

11. Ah, the great molasses flood of 1919!
I don't remember that image, but there was a cool comicbook put out some years back that covered all sorts of murders, catastrophes and disasters. This one was covered in "Murder Can Be Fun" #11 :D

6. Then 10 or 12 I imagine,
although you probably won't be "sitting" the entire time.

7. You've had enough when you start vibrating so hard
that the windows rattle and small items fall to the floor. But you won't be sitting very long. Caffeine makes you pee.

12. Have a Turkish coffee instead.
You should only need one.

I had a Greek coffee over the weekend (sweetened) and the last tablespoon or so looks literally like mud. You don't drink that part, unless you like chewing coffee grounds :P

I was up all hours that night.

13. If your testicles are dancing the tango on the table and you don't mind, that's too many.
If you DO mind, have another cup.

14. Define 'cup'


Is a cup really eight ounces or is it what my coffee maker says which is about about four ounces? Twelve cups my ass! Anyway, I drink about two 16oz mugs per day:



(I hate Starbucks but I like their mugs.)
