Would You Like a Cup of Coffin?

Headline: S.F. Company Launches 'Meth Coffee'

Yerba mate comes from South America and is used to make teas and coffees there. Sellers of yerba mate products claim it raises your energy level, so pairing it with already caffeinated coffee beans could provide quite the boost.

Those guys really know how to make one amphetamine cup of coffee, eh?

Sounds great, doesn't it? That is, if you want your smile to double as a Carlsbad Caverns brochure.

Not to mention, if you're the first customer of the day, you may very well be blown to bits if they haven't unhooked the trip wires yet.

And who needs that shit so early in the morning?!

Besides, I'm sure their shop locations aren't of great convenience either. How many times do you find yourself in a remote desert location craving that hot cup of joe?

Even if they had a store within the city limits, who would want to sit nextdoor to a noisy daycare center and be forced to look at all of those freakish, hairless kids?

Nope. As much as I enjoy the beverage, I think I'll stick to the regular brew.

Meanwhile Tea growers fight back with:
Tea: You can wake up from the dead.

Not only would one have "coffee breath", but "meth mouth" as well...quite the titillating combination don't you think?

John: Godzilla comes to mind - if Godzilla smoked cigars and hung out in beauty salons. :)

I think there are some people for whom the concepts of coffee and meth are interchangable.

With a proper branding from a top flight ad agency it would soon become prevalent and pricey.
A smile as big as Carlsbad..hehe
