    It’s weird that it’s completely necessary for every single person to make that choice! Also, the kind of people that actually parent and don’t just unleash their loud, hyperactive child on strangers don’t get memes made about them.

    Source: I was a loud, hyperactive child, but I was taught respect, consideration, and made to follow rules.

    there’s no way in hell I’m grinding beans at 6am.

    You act like you have to go outside and break boulder-sized beans apart with a pickaxe, lol. It’s the exact same number of scoops, you just put whole beans in your grinder first, then your coffee maker. Literally takes about 5 seconds longer.

    To be clear, there’s nothing wrong with liking cheaper coffee, and I don’t think the majority of us need or could tell the difference from using the absolute best beans and equipment to enjoy it… BUT, grinding your beans fresh gives a huge improvement to aroma and taste, such that I’m still amazed at the coffee I’m sipping out of my thermos late in the day. And it goes without saying that it improves every morning for me, personally. Most people discover a giant improvement, even using the exact same brand and type of coffee, only whole-bean. Very little experimentation is required to make amazing coffee that tastes perfect to you. Good luck if you try it…




  • TL;DR: Mixed

    Vance invested money in AcreTrader, an app that sells shares of real estate investment trusts. While this process does not sell U.S. land directly to foreigners, it does allow foreigners to invest in companies that own American farmland. Vance’s present level of investment in AcreTrader is unclear.

    The cynic in me thinks Snopes stopped showing clear results so people would be forced to read the whole article, resulting in more advertising revenue…
