So, how many cups of coffee do you drink in a day? I tend to drink upwards of three or four regular-sized coffee mugs full of black (no cream or sugar or girlaccinos), but I’m never sure how many “cups” that is. When I make coffee, for example, I make either eight or 12 “cups” — according to the carafe. But I sure don’t get that number of mugs out of it.
I suppose some simple experimentation would answer my question. But I drink coffee when I am tired and unmotivated — hardly the best time for a science project.
For more on the health benefits (alleged) or concerns (even more alleged) that come from coffee consumption, you should check out the extensive Wall Street Journal article I pinched the chart above from.

“Girlaccinos”…from the man who brought you “Cheese of the Week”.
*hakkaf!*…
What about those of us who consume 15-20 cups a day? Do we live forever?
No, but with that much caffeine in your system, time seems to slow down, so it’s almost as is if you live forever.
You live as long as your next aneurysm or cardiac arrythmia…
If this chart is correct, I’m gonna live forever.
