Roast Mine Lightly, Please
Dark-roasted coffee has less caffeine than medium roast. Roasting coffee beans burns off caffeine.

The Story in Your Eyes - Justin Hayward
Not only is this one of my favorite MB tunes, it's one of my all-time favorite songs.

Gettin' My Geek On
| You Are a Geek |
 You are a geek, but that doesn't mean anyone should stereotype you. All geeks are different. You have your own specific interests, lifestyle, and area of expertise. Other geeks may or may not share them. What makes you a geek is not what you're interested in, but that you have a genuine interest in it. It's likely you've been developing certain obsessions since childhood. And they haven't quelled now that you're an adult. You can be a geek about anything, but it's likely that you're at least a little into science fiction, technology, or gadgets. You know what you know and like, and you don't try to fake what you don't. If someone asks you a question about something you're interested in, you have a detailed response ready. |
Are You a Geek or a Hipster?
We had a similar quiz in here a while back, but with different options. I scored a little different on that one.

A # By Any Other Name
The pound symbol (#) is also called an octothorpe.
Over the last few years, however, it's been commonly referred to as a hashtag, a type of label or metadata tag used on social network and microblogging services which makes it easier for users to find messages with a specific theme or content. Users create and use hashtags by placing the hash character (or number sign) # in front of a word or unspaced phrase, either in the main text of a message or at the end. Searching for that hashtag will then present each message that has been tagged with it.
Due to its widespread use, 'hashtag' was added to the Oxford English Dictionary in June 2014. The term hashtag can also refer to the hash symbol itself when used in the context of a hashtag.
