I was more like 'totally tickled' that United drew an away match at Chelsea. Hope Chelsea batter them.

You dirty buggers. Shower before bed. Always. Means all that sweat and grime doesn't get into your sheets and the shower relaxes you for a good night's sleep. No-one has a bath every night ! Coffee is the only answer to waking up and feeling refreshed.
Coffee doesn't actually wake you up, it just stops you from sleeping.
If I shower before bed then I wake up with hair sticking up in all directions.
If I shower before bed I struggle to sleep cos I'm wide awake afterwards.
Has to be a morning shower for me.

The whole situ not helped by a gap of 10 days between games and a Jan window where we don't have a single campfire thread open. It'll pick up - over the past six months i've felt there has been a steady increase in posting across the forum (or maybe just by people I look out for)
It's probably wasn't that kind of shower.
Yeah, but the quieter it is the more Moron feels compelled to fill up the space with his ongoing mental breakdown.
Youve clearly missed the riveting ‘Door Handle’ thread old chum.
That's like the difference between amphetamines and modafanil. The latter just makes you awake and with no need of sleep. The former wires you up and boosts you beyond normal.
As I sit here with my morning coffee I wish I had either.
Just skip past his posts. I’ve found it better for my own sanity.
Modafinil is boss. Best hangover cure ever.
It's too much skipping for a heterosexual.
Coffee doesn't actually wake you up?
It reduces feelings of tiredness, sure, but it's also just a stimulant. Those two things are as close to meaning "wakes you up" as I can imagine.

Its primary mechanism of action is inhibiting the effect of adenosine. Adenosine makes you sleepy. So really it is just restoring you to the level of wakefulness you'd have if you didn't have to get sleepy. Semantic difference perhaps but true nonetheless.
That would be a silly semantic difference, I agree. But it's also a significant stimulant... it affects your whole central nervous system. It makes my wife talk a mile a minute. It makes me focus on work I loathe for half an hour. It makes me beat boss fights in Hollow Knight. These affects on performance and concentration have nothing to do with Adenosine.
This is fucking silly. Get the fuck off wikipedia. Anyone who has had a cup of coffee knows it doesn't just remove sleepiness. This isn't some exotic drug. I'm happy we've all learned about Adenosine now, but if that's all coffee did, the whole world wouldn't be addicted to it.
It has downstream effects on dopamine and noradrenaline but can hardly be compared to direct receptor activation or neurotransmitter release like with amphetamines. It's the quick onset of action, rapid decay of primary effect, and establishment of near complete tolerance combined with awful withdrawal that makes it addictive. In that regard it is similar to amphetamines but not with respect to mechanism of action.
So what you're saying is, I should stop snorting coffee grinds & find something stronger?
How finely are you grinding them? What you could do is to fill a nasal spray with some extra strong espresso and squirt that up your beak.
Caffeine is absorbed through the nasal mucosa but you'd have better luck crushing caffeine anhydrous tabs versus ground coffee. Coffee enema on the other hand....
I think most coffee out there would be better experienced through any orifice that doesn't have taste buds.
Actually, ive never thought of this, but the fact that Jean luc picard brokered peace treaties, defended Android sentience, bested Klingons in knife fights, fought starships with peerless tactics, and made being bald cool decades ago, and all on fucking replicator tea. Imagine what he would have done with some Ethiopian beans and a French press.
