The 'Java-Craze' Syndrome

Before going to work; before kissing the wife in the morning(or the other way around); before opening ones mouth to speak; Ones first order of business is COOOFFFEEE!!! It may sound like an overstatement but go outside one day early in the morning and notice/observe what people are doing. Usually they're either holding a 'to-go' frappe/espresso or cappuccino, or they're waiting in line at their favorite coffee(or pastry) shop. It's so ingrained in their brain circuitry that it's superseded by nothing, and its priority is above and beyond everything and anything; except cigarettes of course, but usually the two go hand in hand(see also my post on the 'smoke-like-a-chimney-in-all-public-places' Syndrome).
Perhaps their tenacity to stick to such high dosages of caffeine is directly related to their high-strung, flippant behavior. This jaunty and easily excited side to them makes them oftentimes act presumptuously and say things that might get others to misunderstand them(see also the 'I-presumed-and-therefore-I-misunderstood' Syndrome). Another side affect of this overindulgence in caffeine makes their tongue shoot out words like an automatic machine gun with endless bullets. That's why if you've ever been caught in this loquacious cross-fire you better find a way to get yourself out. Unless you're a glutton for punishment and want to incite a headache, be my guest.
Maybe it's the complications that Greeks put themselves under which makes them so volatile. Most Greeks that I know work more than two jobs. How they manage to do so is beyond me. Add to that also the bureaucratic black hole that Greeks love to get sucked in on and you've got a system that's structured to drive you insane. So, to deal with that insanity you have to take some kind of legally accepted drugs.

God Forbid: God forbid you should ever add to your staple diet of caffeine a dose of 'Red Bull.' You'll probably alter time to the point where the earth will look like it's standing still. Just be careful not to get behind the wheel if you're ever in such an high state of mind.
