So bored, aren’t you? I work in midtown Manhattan and would not be obnoxious enough to try to claim that $13 is a ‘bargain’ for a coffee and scone.

You're fine as long as you get some broccoli.

In practice I just need more caffeine to get my fix though.
I had tried this, and I started noticing basically any of the cruciferous vegetables work. Even a salad with lettuce.

I want to KEEP the caffeine in my system, not remove it! I do eat a lot of broccoli though.

It's crazy that a drip coffee goes for $5. I used to enjoy walking breaks during the day, where I'd occasionally get a coffee at starbucks or wherever. No more!

No one is forcing you to pay DC takeout prices.
This. No way I am paying what the cafes charge for a plain drip coffee.
OP here. I do need to get out for a break during the day but will probably just get a McDonald’s coffee and sit on a bench.
No shame in that. The $ pain is real.

I just paid 65 dollars for 8 small ‘street’ style tacos with a side of consommé sauce for dc and me for lunch. From a small hole in the wall take out place.
It’s ridiculous
