How coffee became a modern necessity

After I overcame my coffee addiction I switched to caffeine pills since I still needed stimulants to be productive. Some of the benefits I've experienced taking the same dose in pill form over a cup of coffee are cleaner teeth, fresher breath, no longer having to waste time making or drinking coffee (what started as an act of love turned into a chore then a latent hate toward my grinder and espresso machine), but best of all, no more awful coffee poops disrupting my day.

I always keep a few in my pocket in case I start dosing off in meetings. A few live in the car to deal with drowsiness while driving, which was the issue that kick started my caffeine addiction when I was 15 and learning to drive. Nothing seems to put me asleep quite like driving on the freeway :(

I don't know man, I really like the coffee poop breaks.

Having to get up the chair every now and then and take my mind off work for a couple of minutes in silence followed by the sweet post poop satisfaction.

Nothing like it.

For me its like getting punched in the gut then I'm off running to the bathroom.
