Yes, I watched someone who Mark gave a cup of coffee to, and thought they were thanking him when they said "Ta"

In fact it was a description - "tar" !*!

Post by: Strangeways on September 28, 2008, 11:26:46 AM: What is ever more unique about Mark's Coffee is that he uses Moccona - Top shelf coffee...Which would make it even harder to make it taste crap. Maybe he "slips" something into the coffee that FORCES you to buy a Pinball off the floor... @.@

Programmers only drink coke products or mountain dew. Younger programmers seem to enjoy red bull and other crack-like soft drinks...
Title: Re: Coffee?
Post by: Creech on September 30, 2008, 08:34:18 AM: Agreed. Coke Zero seems to be the choice drink amongst the IT crowd.

Is that headline supposed to be "Crazy Aussies go for cat poo coffee"?

I can usually be seen attached to my coffee cup and a cigarette (though the past few days, far less cigarettes as I'm cutting way back to minimize physical withdrawal for when I QUIT in the next two weeks - woohooo)

I'm not sure about the cat poo coffee though. Sounds pretty gimmicky... plus the obvious unpleasant imagery.

Post by: Strangeways on February 19, 2009, 11:39:02 PM: ^&^

I've heard Mark's Coffee WAS Duck-Poo Coffee - even rarer !
Title: Re: Coffee?
Post by: pinnies4me on February 20, 2009, 12:37:18 AM: Cat poo.

At least the mystery surrounding Mark's coffee has finally been resolved.
