The smaller coffee is an espresso.
Earlier the smaller coffee was gurning, crazed, chewing pure caffeine pills, near foaming at the mouth.
To comprehend the mental state of the caffeine pills themselves would melt our minds and send us insane.
Ask not what they themselves consume.
The caffeine pills smoke meth out of the *cutest* little glass pipes.
Here's your neat thing for the day, a shot of espresso is ~60% the caffeine of a cup of coffee, just feels stronger mentally and culturally since it's a shot.
Edit: and dark coffee is weaker than light coffee since caffeine is sensitive to heat.
That little fact at the bottom still regularly blows people's minds IME—yes trust me, the burnt tasting dark roast robusta you love has competitively fuck all caffeine in it compared to the interesting tasting light roast.
I still prefer a dark roast myself, but yeah, trying to act macho about it is stupid.
I have to cycle on and off of coffee for it to be effective. If I just drink it nonstop, I get tolerance issues and it stops being effective. Also, it gets harder to have restful sleep.
The problem is choosing the three days I need to cycle off, since I'll want to sleep 12 hours a day on those days. Then I need to trudge through the following week avoiding cravings, but at least I'm sleeping well.
When cycling back on, a single cup is so very effective.
And the crippling headaches. I screwed up, we ran out of coffee at home, so I didn't get to have my cup before dropping the kids off. I go to the store, pick up a can, make it at home, but it just doesn't do it, I have this headache all day. Come to find out I bought decaf, absolutely useless. It's amazing the effect that caffeine has on the first half of my day.
I do limit myself to just one cup in the morning. One "cup," that is probably more like two actual cups, but I call it one cup because it's just one physical mug of coffee. But boy do I work good until lunch. Unfortunately, after lunch, that's it.
Black tea is a nice way to leave coffee. It has about half the caffeine and a "in the same ballpark" flavor and ritual.
I went to tea at one point when I was just getting bad heartburn from coffee. I've fortunately put those days behind me and have accepted my coffee addiction as a part of my life.
