No. I don't like coffee. I'm an American who likes tea. Does that make me a Tory? On the other hand I only drink the cheap stuff I can buy at Wal-Mart.
Oh, and I replied the way I did because I was told by a reliable source that you Brits talk funny.:rotfl:

Well, here's where I get weird. I've never liked the taste of coffee, but I love the smell. My mom used to have a timer on her coffee pot. Rather than an alarm clock, we would be awakened by the smell of brewing coffee. I have no idea why the taste turns me off, but it definitely does.
