Wow, anyone who came into my house and said that to me would not be welcome in my house again.

I've had to stop coffee entirely because it makes me sick. Not necessarily the caffeine, and I'm still not sure why - I chug Ice Tea by the truck load and no ill effects.

Yeah, there is some weird entitlement thing among some coffee drinkers I have noticed as well. I drink coffee at work, and sometimes with dessert after a meal, but I rarely make it with breakfast. When I have people about I make a rather elaborate breakfast. I have had more than one coffee drinker show up, overlook everything else on the table and demand coffee like there should be a pot of it warm at all times.

Coffee sometimes makes me ill as well. I have found that caffeine can be a problem form me. For some reason when it is warm caffeine it is much worse.
