    You pay two bucks for coffee? If I’m paying two dollars or more for a cup of coffee I expect it to be some fancy shit like artisanal dried specialty espresso or some shit like that. God, American coffee culture sucks so much.

        America doesn’t have culture, we have several hundred million “rugged individuals.”

      Are you not American or just rural? A cup of basic black in a city ain’t cost 2 dollars for like 5-8 years. Probably even longer.

        Not American. Not rural. I live in a major metropolitan city not in north America.

      That’s not uniquely American though…you’d easily pay 5EUR for an espresso where I live, and it will just be OK. A cup of filter coffee is also around 5EUR.

        An espresso is AU$4 at my favourite local cafe, but their coffee is pretty good since they roast it themselves.
