Mike Erre is here to offend all hipsters and night owls with his hill to die on: he claims coffee is for the weak. What are the spiritual implications of coffee? Maybe the real problem—is McDonald’s and Starbucks.

Mike. Mike. Mike. My special needs parent brother-in-arms: I feel betrayed. There is no meaningful discussion of the value of coffee outside of a capitalist, mass-produced, mass-marketed 21st-century iteration. Coffee is a historical, economic, and social powerhouse. It is one of the beverages that changed the course of world events. Feel free to dislike its flavor or odor. Rebuke the behavior of people who allow it to be their master. But out of respect for the Ethiopians who cultivated and shared it with the world, the monks in monasteries who used it as an aid to prayer, and the Italians (who I happen to think make the best of it), I humbly ask you to respect it. Coffee is not weak; it is not produced by the weak, and it is not for the weak. Repent, come down off that hill, and live.

Nijay, as someone also from Portland coffee is great! When I hear Mike talking about going to some specialty shop in the Midwest I can’t help but feel bad for him. Finding a shop with an average rating of what you find in Portland is not an easy feat.
