I've had coffee, but I'm not a coffee drinker. I use my coffee pot to brew tea. I love my tea. Just a thought…If you still have the coffee pot, don't let it go to waste and make some tea. Not a fan of beer either. I do love a good Manhattan though. It is my favorite of adult beverages.

ahhh no, still a virgin. My parents would get up and have a cup of coffee and that was it. If it was a holiday or they had company, they'd serve coffee with dessert. I always hated how it looked and it smelled way too strong. Never had the desire for that or dark booze or beer. Just another weird thing about me.

What strikes me is that a lot of children can't wait to drink coffee. So I can understand you not drinking coffee as an adult, but when you were a little girl didn't you ask to have coffee on holidays when the adults were drinking theirs? Even though most adults will give a child a more-milk-than-coffee-coffee, still, I would think that you MIGHT have had that when you were young. Which I would think would dis-qualify you for Coffee virgin status.

Loved this post, and I own a coffee shop. I'm no virgin to coffee, cigarettes, sex or porn. But I've never done crack either, so we have that in common. By the way, you are not missing anything. I mostly love the smell of coffee. I wish I could just smell it and not drink it. Because once you are addicted, morning is never the same again. And I don't mean that in a good way.

You're not alone…..49 year old coffee/tea/Starbucks virgin here. Several times a week I'm asked to "meet for coffee". When I tell them I don't drink coffee, I feel the tone change and now they want to meet me for the freak facytor more than business. I was once the recipient of a re-gifted coffee maker so I had something to practice on…it didn't take. I Although I've never drunk coffee or tea, I have been an active participant in just about every other vice known to man.

I am all for learning a new language but I want to order things here in the US in MY language…which is mostly Sarcastic American. I'm short and I don't call myself venti or grande. Although if I keep eating chocolate, I'm going to be super grande.

Venti actually means 20 in Italian – the venti size is a 20 oz. cup. It's actually the only size name Starbucks uses that makes sense. You won't find a "tall" (which is really small) size in espresso shops in Italy. And I refuse to use the Starbucks lingo. I go in and purposely use small, medium and large to describe the size I want. The coffee slingers behind the counter translate it for me.
