I never understood how people can associate caffeine with study and work.I suppose for mindless work, yes that would work for me. If I want to think though, caffeine doesn't seem to be best option.Adderall on the other hand... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselDaisy Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 People take coffee seriously these days. If I am not boozing, I would rather have a cup of tea or a glass of water to be honest. Expresso, Latte, mocha, capucinno - all these terms for what is essentially a cup of coffee. Load of bollocks. Real Englishmen drink tea anyhow. It is how the empire was built, whereas the yanks chucked all theirs in Boston harbour because they prefer coffee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Len B'stard Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 One thing that annoys me in England is the lack of convenience, every other country and people are posting these massive pics of glass bottles full of this frappy-cappy-cheeny shit and you get the feeling it's like, readily available in every other store, like the convenience in the rest of the world, if you need some shit to do some job America will have some shit to do it clean and easy. Like for instance I was trying to hang a punchbag off a tree one time and there is NOTHING in England in Homebase or anywhere convenient that has some shit that did that job...did in America though, in some shop called Home Depot, which i assume is their Homebase, probably owned by the same motherfuckers. Point being, go into your average cornershop or even Tesco Express, which people round here act like is some kinda blessing cuz it has shit your average smelly coronershop ain't but even their range ain't shit, it's just we're used to worse than 'ain't shit', like throwing a starving man a packet of crisps, don't amount to much but a starving mans gonna be grateful. Nothings fucking convenient here, everythings a fuckin' hassle, there ain't no fuckin' like....onus on providing a good service.People take coffee seriously these days.

arnold layne Posted March 29, 2014 Author Share Posted March 29, 2014 Places aren't as convenient as you'd think in the USA. If you don't have a car (in most areas), you're screwed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PappyTron Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 The Americans having a predilection for drinking coffee over the more subtle flavours offered in tea was wonderfully summed up by The Sensational Alex Harvey Band in their classic "The Boston Tea Party".

arnold layne Posted March 29, 2014 Author Share Posted March 29, 2014 Yes, most aren't accustomed to walking. I think it's a generational thing over here. A lot of the older folks tend to walk more than the younger ones. Somewhere in the 80's and 90's, I think, is when people started believing walking is a chore. It's somewhat of a shame.A lot of it is personal preference, and I am generalizing too, but people will drive everywhere. Today I walked two miles to get a haircut. I could have drove my ass to get one easily, but I figured I may as well walk off the food I ate the night before. Walking is also therapeutic for me as well. It's less time I will be drinking I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is totally anglicised yank but moved back to the states for awhile with his (English) family. He says his neighbours looked at him like he was an alien when he walked to the shops. They would stop and say, ''want a lift Bill?'' and could not grasp the concept that he, wanted to walk. He says, it is common to see someone in America pull up at a shop; get out; buy some stuff; come out; get in the car; drive to the store next door; and repeat the process!Still, they drive when they are 10 years old out there. You drive when you are ten but cannot drink until they are 30 haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i don't think of it in distance i think of time it takes...like you can look at that shit and go 'damn, i'm gonna walk for 2 miles?!?!' but if you look at it like a 20 minute walk it's cool.

arnold layne Posted March 29, 2014 Author Share Posted March 29, 2014 Fuck, 20 minutes for two miles? Takes me a hell of a lot longer than that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselDaisy Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Also, some of the cities are not very pedestrian friendly. I have heard LA is a bit of a nightmare if you do not drive. The cities are literally designed for cars. Some of our areas are becoming like that also. There is this Toys R' Us in Gateshead and it is literally impossible to access without a car: walking to it would entail, crossing this crazy motorway.

Guest Len B'stard Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Im 6'4 so i guess I have longer legs and plus I always got my music on when i'm walking and you kinda shift when it's like that. Also Englands cold, if you live in America it's probably hot all the time so you can't really shift like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnold layne Posted March 29, 2014 Author Share Posted March 29, 2014 Los Angeles can be depressing and gluttonous as hell.Everyone's fat as shit, driving a mile, here and there, only to pick up some Taco Bell and go to the Liquor Store.

Guest Len B'stard Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 If i didn't walk like that I wouldn't be able to like....have ever had any kind of life. When i was younger it was common to like, walk. But I never knew what it was in miles, i just googled it now, it was 2 and a half miles...for me it was just a 20 to 25 minute walk down the main drag into town.Im 6'4 so i guess I have longer legs and plus I always got my music on when i'm walking and you kinda shift when it's like that.
