    Coffee pot can be an ok substitute. Only its trading addictions (for a much lesser one).

      I had to look up what a “coffee pot” is, but I am still not sure if it meant what I thought it meant (a literal pot for coffee, perhaps a french press, coffee maker, or even an espresso machine if you’re really deep into it), which, if my guess is indeed correct… I’m sorry to say, it’s already a habit of mine to the point that I have to have my morning smoke with coffee.

      But yeah, if you mean something else (based on the second word, it might be), it’s illegal where I live, not even for medical purposes (but I’ve encountered people who use it recreationally). Indeed, it’s said to be less addictive than tobacco.

          HAHAHAHAHAHA! Dammit!

          I usually grind my own coffee (from roasted beans) before making my coffee in the morning, and I tell you, when I used a basic hand grinder, I can kill way more than five minutes. It’s really a meditative process though, and as a bonus, the aroma wafting from the freshly ground beans is really relaxing. Having said that, I bought myself an electric grinder since I just want my caffeine on most mornings. Still a meditative process though, just with less hand movement nowadays and more staring at the ground coffee falling into a heap. And then there’s staring at the drip coffee machine as the black liquid trickles into the carafe.
