California Now Wants To Regulate Coffee And Chocolate
2006-02-27
Is the War on Drugs taking aim at that morning cup of java? As crazy as it might sound, some activists would hope so - and they have enlisted the help of various mayors to support their cause.

But first, to be more precise, critics aren't specifically after coffee, but rather after caffeine - a "drug" that is included in such products as energy and soft drinks, and some chocolates...

#8  You'll take my chocolate from me when you pry it from my cold dead fingers ....

Scratch that, I'll be the one doing the prying and you'll be the one with the cold fingers LOL.

#6  Ban coffee, office productivity will cease. Ban chocolate, and the fires of hell will seem nice compared to the wrath of the women.

#3  "Is it political correctness gone mad?"

Yes. Substitute "fuckwit" wherever you see "activist" and the stories are much clearer, maningful, and accurate.
