I'm an owl and I love lounges I must say.
I go to Starbucks for lattes and occasionally to get studying in. This lounge is none of those things.
Now I want a latte. :(
Starbucks should have a deal with DV. I'd totally order a nice drink after waking up, it'd be very helpful for staying up long enough to write down my dreams on my DJ. :P
I'd rather just make a pot of good coffee than spend 2 bucks on a single cup of crappy coffee.
Get a carmel brulee latte at Starbucks around Christmas time. You can't make that shit at home.
I'll just grind up some organic dark roast and load my French press. :)
Fuck the lounge.
I prefer coffee-flavored coffee, water-flavored water, and beer-flavored beer. Call me old fashioned, I guess. :)
Purists unite!
About 98% of the time I drink normal coffee too. Occasionally I'll have lattes and such, if I feel like something sweet and feel like spending the money. If that's what I drank every day then I'd be 300 pounds and $5000 in debt.
(Just clarifying since there seems to be an assumption in this thread that everyone is only capable of sticking to one form of caffeinated beverage.)
inb4 I know this is supposed to be light hearted and it proably looks like I don't understand jokes or something. I do; I just don't care, it's still annoying.
If the lounge is considered the Star Bucks of here; then what is the Caramel Frap?
This area is awesome. We need candles around here.

I don't like coffee at all. Or tea, for that matter. *downs a glass of wine*
Ironically I'm sitting here right now with a big mug of Folgers fortified with a couple shots of Evan Williams (that's poor man's Jack Daniels - apparently if you believe the label it was the first Kentucky Bourbon - weird that I never heard of it until recently and the bottle looks suspiciously like JD.. :shadewink:)
More like JD is the rich, tasteless man's Evan Williams! BaZiiiiing! (I seriously think EW tastes better than JD, JD's price is based solely off marketing).
I mostly drink Old Crow but when I was in Texas I drank Kentucky Deluxe.
Haha agreed!! I even like the EW bottle better than the newer JD bottles.
What does coffee and bourbon taste like? Sounds horrible.
I'll have to try it.
I used to mix gin with chocolate milk when we only had gin in the liquor cabinet, as a teenager.
Was pretty nice surprisingly.
I think it tastes really good. I call it Kentucky Coffee (since it's made with Kentucky bourbon - weird - I guess bourbon originally came from the region in France? In fact I wonder if Kentucky has a large French immigrant population?) I used to make Irish coffee, but the Irish whiskey I can find is all expensive, like Jameson's. Good as hell, but expensive. And the taste isn't all that different really. I like Canadian Mist in coffee too, and I was putting vodka in it for a while because it has no taste. But I like the bourbon best. I also sometimes make a jamocha shake with malted milk powder in it and vodka. Mmmmm-mmmm good! Make it in a small bowl, not a cup, and don't mix the ingredients aside from mashing the ice cream down enough to get a thin film of milk and coffee over it and kind of mashed into it a little. That makes the liquids freeze and go all crunchy (assuming you have the right kind of ice cream). Then mix just a little as you take each spoonful. In fact, I happen to have the ingredients now - I'll get a pic later (this actually looks as amazing as it tastes).
Espresso, no milk no sugar, thank you very much!
ps: I make it myself, it's easier.
Also, dandelion coffee, must try.
Ok, here's my special concoction - ice cream stew.

Just a little milk and coffee (cold coffee - brew some up and refrigerate it) - I really got too much liquid here. Let it sit and freeze on the ice cream for a few minutes.

The finished product, with malted milk powder and chocolate syrup added for extra yumminess. Sooo good!
I'm hungry. And bored.
And childish.
The Lounge is ok
Even a the place that some folk wouldn't be seen dead in, like Beyond Dreaming is ...
What I want to say is that when I joind Dreamviews I was shocked to be getting 20 views per post.
Now
When I leave a thread for a week or two my views creep-up to 50 then 70 views. Often I will stop posting untill my view count goes up. I wait till all 70 of my regular viewers have logged-in and read my latest installments.
Then I continue. ..for them
Non of them reply
But I appreciate and respect my regular, silent, viewer's.
So
Kiss my... :buns:
Isn't Jameson's whiskey? I thought bourbon was American?
Eh.... yeah anyway, I agree most whiskey tastes the same. I just found some cheap (for Australia) Scottish Whiskey and it tastes just as good as any other expensive brand.
