Rolled a nat 20 on intimidation.
I’d actually like to see someone try to slam their fist down on a table while drinking coffee without spilling.
You’ve got to suck really hard to leverage surface tension while fisting.
Pro move but it can be done
This guy sips and smashes!

Who the fuck drinks coffee while eating pasta
My dad. He drinks coffee with everything, including his coffee.
No tea? No tomato juice?
An adhd-haver who’s on their third cup of the day at lunch, and will have 3 more over the course of the afternoon.
Wait, what is a regular amount of coffee to drink?
For me? 2-6 cups over the course of the workday. But also note that I’m on prescription stims, so caffeine is just “more stims”
0-1 cups/day. Anything more is quite bad for you.
No. Some people get jittery when they have more than one or have a cup too late in the day. But 400 mg of caffeine is fine. That’s four cups of coffee. Six or more a day can result in a rise in risk for cardiovascular disease. This could be considered not great, but a lot of other factors to into cardiovascular disease. So “quite bad” is quite a stretch.
Do people really drink only one cup a day? Here I’m with my 4-8 cups per day
Me, 5 minutes ago. What’s so special about pasta and coffee combo?
I’d probably guess the Italians
And you would be wrong, in Italy coffee is almost never drunk while eating something salty. Actually is mostly drunk alone as its own dish, aside from breakfast
And if you break this rule, THEY KILL YOU ON THE SPOT
It’s almost as bad as breaking your spaghetti.
They drink espresso
*they drink espresso based coffees.
The italians invented lattes, cappuccinos, Americanos etc… most espresso based coffee finds its origin in Italy; it’s just instant coffee and whatever it is Starbucks are doing that they tend to scoff at.
I think Americano was created by American GIs in Italy during WWI. They diluted espresso with hot water to make it more like traditional American coffee at the time.
There’s also evidence of the term Cafe Americano in Central American Spanish.
Australia and New Zealand also have the long black which is like an Americano but you add the espresso over the water to maintain the crema and get a stronger flavor.
- and moka pot at home, which is not espresso, but makes a reasonable approximation for the fraction of the price of a real espresso machine
i will drink coffee with anything. yogurt, salad, chips and salsa, tofu, the list goes on.
Why not? You can even use some pasta as a straw
Coffee messes with iron absorption.
and then everyone else in the cafeteria clapped 🙄
No, but I did go to the principals office and they went to the nurse. That was over thirty years ago though.
Where was this work? The prison kitchen or something?
I have stabbed people with a fork for trying to touch my food.
Just quickly lean towards their hand and snap your teeth like you’re going to bite. Works with all sorts of unwanted touching, just be ready to actually bite if they’re also nuts and try again to call your bluff. Even if they get angry they’re much less likely to want to throw hands with the high possibility of getting bit hanging in the air.
The downside is you will look even more insane than with just fork stabs, but on the plus side you will look insane enough people will stay the fuck away in the future too
Curious if this works where a woman is trying to stop a man touching her.
Might have to draw blood if the guy is really not responding to verbal warnings.
Verbal warnings are for when the touching attempts haven’t yet happened. When the hands get close, the first snap is the warning. To have aura of insanity there are no second warnings
People are prepared for punching or screaming and shit, but usually nobody is prepared to get bit, so probably even if the risk of violence is higher. But getting a chunk out of some jerk has its own satisfaction, they will remember it even if you get hurt worse
I really don’t want any part of the dude in my mouth.
It’s just the risk that has to be taken when threatening to bite, if the threat is bluff it’s not wise to try it. I mean it’s probably not wise to try it in the first place, but sometimes idiots just need some bared teeth at them to learn
I have stabbed no one because I’m not insane. Different strokes I guess
No it was not insanity, it was undiagnosed Autism in a poor rural community. This is why proper social support is matters.
Now thats insanity
Edit: moving comment where it belongs.

In the membranity
If it’s on or near my plate I’m gonna try and eat it. It’s called finger food for a reason.
That definitely happened
Honestly? Those break room hostilities can get intense. I learned at a young age to not fuck with a salaried man’s luncheon. I believe it.
Don’t fuck with anyones food. Even animals get hostile.
she was just trying to flirt with OP and he freaked out and made it really weird… she as like
NOPE
and bailed
By touching his food?
Everyone doesn’t have those kinds of fetishes
There’s the matter of consent if that were the case. Which she clearly didn’t have.
Even if they were trying to flirt, being told repeatedly not to do something that they keep doing anyway is not flirting.
For some people it is
Nah touching someone’s food is weird.
Yeah that is the weirdest way to flirt. If she touches you, that’s more clear but touching your food is not really understood as a display of affection.
Right? Like just sit in my lap and pee a little like a normal person
The irony is that doing that doesn’t piss you off
I’d rather be pissed off than pissed on, but that’s just me.
Umm…
I think you need to learn how to flirt
