This could explain why I can never find my keys. They are always right there but I can’t find them until looking for ten to fifteen minutes. The coffee makes them invisible.

Sometimes I tell the
whisperers to shut up but
then I realize

I'm screaming at them
and everyone's watching me
so then I throw things...

I had one of those but every time I yelled at my son it went off. And then my wife would remind me, we don’t have a son.

So why do they just mention instant? Doesn’t regular do the same? Maybe they were too cheap to buy regular.

I asked one of my whisperers and she didn’t know.

Elvis was here this morning. He had coffee with the Mad Hatter and the Wizard of Oz. It was a fun morning.

Cup O Crappola. If coffee drinkers want hallucinations, they’ll have to buy shrooms like the rest of us.

Well, that explains it. I’ve been hallucinating that a Marxist usurper with ties to unrepentant terrorists & who went to a hatred-spreading church for 20years was about to be sworn in to the presidency of the US and that the court system hadn’t done anything about it

Well, then, this is good news. All I have to do is lay off the coffee. “There’s no place like home... there’s no place like home...”

FUn FAct. Coffee was baptized by Pope Clement VIII liked coffee so much that he baptized it to save "Satan's Drink" from the Muslims who introduced it into Europe via the Turkish invasion of Austria. Your humble correspondent wrote an ARTICLE about this.
