The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for November 09, 2020

What’s wrong with a simple decaf coffee, Chiefey? Sometimes you don’t want to be so pretentious in your choice of morning joe!

Decaf? If you’re going to swill that filthy stuff, you might as well get a jolt out of it.

And pretty weak decaf at that.

It gets worse: during the II World War there was no coffee and my compatriots made it with chicory . And the exact word for it was ciofeca :

I am a tea drinker with my breakfast and a cup of coffee thereafter.

Ah yes, but it is at a specialty shop, so I have qualities that make me stand out above the crowd. Tell me Chief, what qualities of mine do you really like? (He should have stopped while he was ahead.)

nothing wrong with boring – i really don’t need any more bull drama

In the old days, for people who couldn’t have caffeine, if Sanka wasn’t bad enough, there was Postum (a grain beverage made by Post)

So, according to Mister Dynamism Boss From Hell anyone who drinks decaf is dull. Well, dynamo, as I drink decaf all the time, dull is good.

The boss doesn’t know him well enough to render an opinion, as I doubt that he knows him outside of the office environment. That being said, Brutus should know better than to ask that question to ANYONE he knows…..

Also used acorns during WW11 to make coffee. Yuck yuck!

I guess Brutus has never heard phrase ’Don’t ask the question, if you can’t handle the answer’, he should know by now he won’t get a answer he likes from Rancid.

Gee thanks, Chief!

That’s OK Brutus being boring is the the least or your worries.

Yes I think Rancid thinks Brutus is boring. He always puts him down and never says anything nice to him.
