    MM, don't you know that a group of stalkers is called a "fucknut"? True story. Look it up.

    While on the topic of painting...edging tape. Never goes on straight and then pulls off the paint when being removed.

    How much do cups cost?
    How long do they last before another trip to the store?

    It depends on where you buy them. I've seem them go for under $0.60/cup. You can buy them in packs of 6 and 12, at least. Most Keurig konnoisseurs will have a carousel holding 20 or 30 cups sitting next to their machine.

    To compare, when I buy coffee, it's usually to the tune of <$0.25/cup, and I buy decent stuff. I also grind it fresh and make in a French press.

    Boobs. Girlfriend comes home from zumba. Girlfriend takes off sports bra to present sweaty boobs. Me = mental car wreck.

    ...

    Are you kidding? These things are hugely disappointing. You can't taste the half-ass squirt of marshmallow-like guck inside them at all because there is so little of it and the overdone fake dark chocolate liquor taste covers it up. I like dark chocolate. I like marshmallow. This product delivers neither.

    Me, I'm like you, I do it myself, grind it, etc...decent quality.
    Trader Joe's fresh bean French Roast in large really good sized container go for $12.
    That lasts 2 weeks...if I make a 12 cup pot every morning. (ground in a burr mill for a 8 cup measurement, fairly fine...it's rich & thick so it goes farther)

    So I figure, 12 cup measurements works out to be 6 coffee mugs, times 14 days
    84 mugs of really damn good coffee for $12 (.14 per cup)

    But my wife is into this, she buys the 80 packs at warehouse stores...$35 (.44 per cup)
    She can't make a cup of coffee for the life of her, so this is convenient when I'm not available.
    (her philosophy of more is better doesn't work with coffee)

    So to taste decent, a cup is used for a mug (large button, come on...you want to fill it up)
    Yes, you can use it again...but it tastes like crap.

    I'm not being cheap, I just think its wasteful...think of all the containers.
    If I'm honest, I don't like it for coffee but I like the unusual things like a nice hot cup of cider.
    (or cider favored water...but it's still good in winter)

    Yeah, I would be closer to that, except the coffee I get is more expensive and I brew really strong stuff. Like Jimmy says, when I drink it, I wanna taste it. But despite that, I'm still well below half the cost of Keurig coffee.

    You can get a reusable K-cup that you fill with coffee of your choice.

    ha, only if someone else applies it for me. I'm terrible at it, mostly because I'm terrified that I'm going to stab myself in the eye. :D


    Also: wasps. Those are some mean little jerks.
