Why did people stop mentioning beer. It is far more interesting than coffee IMHO

OK, there's two ways to answer this:
1) Did you ever think that people who make long posts are stuck in the Off Assignment Center and literally have nothing else to do?

2) Umm, no.

Nice

By that I assume that you think white supremacy right-wing politics isn't defective. Have you finally come out of the closet, MOBIUS ?

[MOBIUS]

No, just that Winston is so ****ed up that he thinks black is white and vice versa...

Besides, there are plenty of right-wing opinions I completely agree with - quite why many people on this forum brand me as some sort of a left-wing commie is a constant source of amusement to me...

There's no need for lecturing me on the variety of different beans and roastings which have always been a subject of individual preferences. My beef is with the phony café-culture and its attempt at creating artificial social auras around unreflecting, self-absorbed patrons trying to feel more important by ordering de-caf cinnamon latte to go with their $2.50 bottle of carbonated spring water with an ever so slight touch of citrus in it.

Baloney!

It's like The Emperor's New Clothes all over again, only infinitely less entertaining for anyone encountering it.

That has nothing to do with the appreciation of different beans or roasts, which is in many ways comparable to that of different blends of tea, albeit less pronounced for coffee drinkers.

And next on Grumpy old Men, Winston rants over the new coffee culture.

Having said that I can't tell the difference between beans and roasts. Well, that's not true - I don't think it makes a difference. It's like Coke vs. Pepsi: $4.5B a year in advertising and what do people say to the waitress?
"I'll have a Coke."
"Is Pepsi OK?"
"Yeah, whatever."

untrue.
pepsi is crap.

PEPSI, the great equaliser = I agree with Siro!

Seconded.

I'm a Coca-Cola man. I always ask whether they have Coke or Pepsi. If it's Pepsi, I order water.

And now they've started the exact same thing with beers; a hundred and thirty-eight different kinds everywhere you go, and of course people will buy them, because it's not about having a beer anymore, it's about pretending to be more interesting than you actually are.

WTF are you talking about here? What is the one true beer or beer style? What beer do you drink?

The funny thing is that you sound like a 1970s characiture of an American, someone who only eats Oscar Meyer bologna and Velveeta cheese sandwiches on Wonder Bread, only drinks Budweiser, thinks that they're the best things in the world, and can't understands why they make anything different.
