- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).

Shouldn't coffee be dark and bitter?
Bitter is actually not good coffee. There are also light and medium roasts which taste less like "dark roast" and let more of the flavor of the beans through, which is more interesting and varied for some people. For instance I'd say what I'm drinking now is bright and citrusy.
It’s just a matter of preference, not quality.
Dark yes, but not really that bitter if brewed properly with good beans...What most people drink is not brewed properly and not with good beans.
Totally agree with this. It's hard to find a good roaster that isn't charging a lot for beans now, but when you find one, it crushes anything you can buy in the store.
Even buying beans in local coffee shops, if they aren't roasting them, you could be buying beans that have been stale for months!
