why do i hate that artist thing that people keep posting on my facebook so much? why am i such a jerk?

I hate that trope - "I am such a thoroughly unpleasant person that I automatically dislike anyone who talks to me before I've injested a stimulant"

coffee jokes like this are an outlet for our deep love of alcohol, marijuana, and prescription drugs, which you can't really profess your affection for in a work environment.

It's not that I dislike you before that point, I just can't form words.

I should say, it's not necessarily that I dislike you, although if I do, I'm going to feel the same after my coffee too.

the thing i hate almost the most about the internet is how these horrible jokes turn into huge memes and they get reconstructed into a million different jokes except they're all the same exact joke just told in a slightly different order and i can never escape these jokes

don't talk to me after i've had my coffee

Haha

It's an actual thing though -- it's called being addicted to stimulants. I guess we addicts are, in a sense, thoroughly unpleasant people.

Until we get our fix!

i drink more coffee and tea than is probably safe and i hate that meme

yes but it's not exactly a source of pride now is it?

No certainly not, it's a stupid meme. But it's true.

what am i supposed to think is more stimulating, your platitudes or my coffee

honestly I think it was just that McDonalds commercial that soured me on it. basically it was a 20-something dude walking around telling people "don't talk to me, I haven't had my coffee yet". wanders into McDonalds. counter girl says, "would you like to try a ---" and the dude says "don't talk to me, I haven't had my coffee.." and she continues "-premium roast coffee for a dollar?" and laughs. even though this guy literally went into a McDonalds, stood in front of the counter, and told the girl TRYING TO TAKE HER ORDER to shut up. as though he was just going to stand there. This is "funny"?????

no, it's even worse because his response is something like "talk to me!"

i still think about this stupid commercial all the time

ahahaha someone remembers it!! I'll never wrap my head around what happens at :11 there

That guy was Zooey Deschanel's ex-boyfriend in New Girl.

That's bs. Bad things happen to you without you "earning" it, why must good things be earned?

because the world is mean and man uncouth? i have no idea tbh.
what's also disturbing is that this is a sentiment being expressed by a person young enough to use "fucking" in that way
kinda makes me shudder tbh

yeah because fuck quiet patience so lame raaaagh ugh

Also kinda missing the point - the original phrase is meant to encourage quiet toil and discourage complaining, or the expectation of some easy payoff. I mean, I feel like people saying that would also agree with "Gotta go out and earn it," etc.

unnecessarily combative

waiter hatred

my words words words GOD words words GOD is always right
--abraham lincoln

obv this is probably being used by people to dig their heels in the ground, but Abe comes off less boastful and sure of himself in context:

It is difficult to make a man miserable while he feels worthy of himself and claims kindred to the great God who made him.

Sir, my concern is not whether God is on our side, My great concern is to be on God's side, for God is always right.

The Lord prefers common-looking people. That is the reason he makes so many of them.

The will of God prevails. In great contests each party claims to act in accordance with the will of God. Both may be, and one must be, wrong. God cannot be for and against the same thing at the same time. In the present civil war it is quite possible that God's purpose is something different from the purpose of either party - and yet the human instrumentalities, working just as they do, are of the best adaptation to effect His purpose.

I have been driven many times upon my knees by the overwhelming conviction that I had nowhere else to go. My own wisdom and that of all about me seemed insufficient for that day.

ha, nvm. I guess Lincoln likely didn't say any of this at all, which is even better. http://urbanlegends.about.com/b/2008/09/12/did-palin-misquote-lincoln.htm

Right, in context the quote is humble -- his "concern" is to be on God's side but he doesn't purport to be sure that he is on God's side.

yeah, and it seems like if he did say any of it, the "For God is always right" part was likely added by someone else
