Banter RDT 174 - BigCoffee

[DanWCE]

I have like 3-4 coffees a day but can easily go without a coffee without withdrawals (on a day off - definitely need to have one on a work day)

Yeah I have 3 real coffees per day. I schedule that shit, because I'm a creature of habit. Also got a proper bean machine for home. Could never go back to pods now.

Usually it's 2 double-shot Americanas a day minimum, with maybe a 3rd depending on the day.

At least 5 a day....if I don't have one by say 9.30-10 I get a headache that lasts all day

Where’s best to stay in Broome? Considering going up for the first time in a few weeks. Don’t care too much about cost as I haven’t been on a holiday for ages

Cable Beach Resort is overpriced but is in the best location.

There’s a number of other resorts within walking distance of Cable Beach that are perfectly fine

Stay away from anything in the town side of Broome

I may have a problem

I'm 33, haven't had a coffee ever since after having a bad coffee experience when I was 12 (an aunty made me a coffee instead of a warm milo that made me sick/awake all night).

This includes doing shift work starting at 5am and playing 18hr+ poker sessions.

Don't think I would ever touch it tbh

I was trying to cut down to a couple a day but it only lasted a week

We still talking about coffee?

Real coffee or Nescafe?

Real coffee campaigner. Double shots each time

"Real coffee campaigner!"

Spoken like a true Melbournian.

I didn't until I started a job where I was working longer hours, started off with mochas, then cappuccinos. Now I just inject black coffee straight into my veins

So stick to the cable beach side? Cheers

Have you tried a crushed up form? Ask Wayne Carey for tips for storage and use.

Caffeine amateurs.

If coffee withdrawal kicks in it's your body's way of saying that you need to pop another NoDoz

And you’ll need a hire car to get around unless you plan on just lying on the beach all day

Fwooooof don't even get me started on the Red Bull withdrawals. Glad I gave that shit the kick years ago.

Yeah that stuff's ****ing horrible

 

[Bender_]

Yeah that stuff's ******* horrible

I still have one every couple of months and it's fantastic, but it's some seriously volatile shit to be having daily.

Some of the guys at work have one every breakfast and then one at lunch, dunno how they do it.
Then there's the guy who has a coke for breakfast every morning...

I haven’t had a coffee since Feb 25th 2021

Your headache must be massive

On another note, my eldest just finished up a round of Auskick and now wants to register for the local team next season


Final Auskick session had "kids vs parents" playing something similar to AFL9s with zones etc. Manned up in the middle on the son, nostalgia pulsing through brain... and then he starts to trash talk...

Right, we'll see about that - ball comes in, I fly at full stretch, take a massive hanger and then hear loud gasps from everywhere (the kids, the parents, the Auskick crew, people on the sidelines) as I crush a small child on the landing...


Thankfully he was ok (more scared than hurt, although the tears left me wanting the ground to rise up and swallow me).


Afterwards, son comes up to me, "Dad you almost killed that kid, but it was a good mark though".


I'll take that as a win.

You're basically ScoMo.
