I know it's not the same, but my peeve is guests who have to have COFFEE OMG coffee first thing. I drink coffee. It's made by 7 am at the latest. But my priority is getting up with my daughter and getting her needs met. My parents and in-laws are practically chomping at the bit. If I don't set it up the night before, my dad rattles around at 5:45 making it. At least he's clean about it. My MIL will get grounds and water everywhere. With my ILs, I make a full pot, have one small cup myself, and they want another full pot.  :shock:

It's just like...calm down. When I'm a guest in someone else's home, I drink a cup if there is a pot, when it is made, and I don't go sniffing around for it.[/quote]

"It's not important to me, and thus it shouldn't be important to anyone!"

Set up the coffeemaker the night before. Leave the stuff out so they can make a second pot if they want one. Buy cheap coffee if this is a budget issue. Otherwise, stop policing what other people ingest. [/quote]

Good Lord.  You don't want to talk with me in the morning before I have coffee.  Do what the PP suggests and just set it up the night before, or ask them too.  Some people just drink a lot of coffee--as this thread suggests, better that than alcohol![/quote]
Automatic coffee makers are pretty cheap these days. It might not be a bad idea to set up a second coffee maker just for when company is over. You can have both makers make the coffee early in the morning so it is there for the addicts when they stumble out of bed.[/quote]

Or people visiting someone else's home can RELAX. No one should have to buy a second coffee maker--cheap though they may be--because some people can't wait a freaking hour for a cup of coffee, or QUIETLY press "start" on a coffee maker that has been set up for them the night before and pour themselves a cup. No one NEEDS coffee first thing. Really. You can even go without food for a day, I'm just saying. Coffee addicts just think they are soooo cool and special because they are jonesing for their joe. "DON'T EVEN TALK TO ME BEFORE I'VE HAD MY COFFEE" is the most irritating sentence in the English language. Get over yourself.[/quote]

You have quests. Having a guest means you need to slightly change your morning routine by simply taking 2 minutes to make a freaking pot of coffee. Instead, you just go about your day like no one's around.

Frankly, I find that passive aggressive.[/quote]
