Ahhh, I see. Peppermint is good. =w= Especially the sleepytime one. Yeah, it is a shame , but a strong cup of coffee with milk product in it is quite tasty.

I drink tea for pleasure. Got some peppermint and ginger green tea right now. I drink coffee when I need it, but I need to drown it in milk and sugar to make it palatable.

I'm CE but still a nice and caring person, if that makes any sense? I think I'm smart :D

I think it does. Alignment isn't personality. I think you're smart too. And your dragon bub is hugsworthy. When I glance at it briefly, I always think it's Pearl from Steven Universe.

There are some very good pickle places here. I even have some fine whole sour pickles in the fridge. BUT they do not belong in Irish coffee.

You're such an optimist. It's amazing how optimism keeps manifesting itself despite all the harsh realism of history. Say what you want, but optimism is almost debilitatingly stubborn. Optimism: It. Just. Won't. Go. Away.

That's what family bonds usually are, unless you happen to live in certain regions of certain Southern states, according to certain stereotypes.

My favourite is chamomile, honey and vanilla. I don't thin I'll ever like coffee, but the only alternative is getting a healthy amount of sleep, which is obviously impossible.

My default reaction was to furiously proclaim that your infernal malevolence knows no compare, but I'm actually ok with that. Can't go wrong with pineapple, after all.

It's like how I despise the 5e Monster Manual's take on Sprites. While I was originally indifferent, when I read their entry, I found that they can apparently deduce an individual's objective moral classification by listening to their heartbeat. When I first read that I thought in a rage:

"THAT'S NOT HOW BIOLOGY WORKS."

I mean, then the book tried to smugly pass it off with "The heart never lies." Well, what if someone has a heart condition that causes them to mis-register on the Sprites' bullcrap morality test. Also, HOW WOULD THAT EVEN WORK?!? IT! MAKES! NO! SEEENNNNSSSEEEEEE!!1!
