Whether you enjoy it with breakfast, acompanied by a midmorning snack or as a warm comfort to your evening, coffee has been a staple in households all over the world. Why wouldn't it be, really? Coffee puts a spring in your step the morning after a long night. Coffee brings people together by being a delicious, quick and relatively inexpensive bonding experience with friends, family or a date, and you've come to appreciate those facts and then some. With that appreciation, comes frequent coffee stops on a road trip, a specified monthly budget for creamer, and the realization that you may have an addiction. It's ok though, you're not alone. Once you embrace your caffiene dependence, you'll probably find all or a majority of this list to be true.

1. It's an aquired taste (DUH)

Who didn't have a sip of mom or dad's coffee when they were little and abhor its very existence? Joke's on your past self, because it's 10 years later and you practically need it in an IV.

2. Normal human interaction and/functioning is impossible sans coffee

Just 16 ounces of sweet nectar-of-the-gods in the morning will get you from Ron Swanson to Chris Traeger, and that's perfectly normal.

3. Dessert is never the same

You're catchphrase has become this [whatever pastry] would be AMAZING with coffee and you can't help it because you're just spitting STRAIGHT TRUTH!

4. You learn it's not about being fancy

When it comes to coffee, simple can be hella chic. Starbucks is cool and all but, honestly, if you had it every day you'd be broke and gas station coffee is just fine!

5. Your mouth gets burned at least once a week

Who wouldn't be impatient when it comes to your sweet caffeinated release and with impatience comes scolding from the coffee gods in the form of lava down your throat.

6. Something you own will get stained on the daily

I never understood how my teachers could be so careless to spill coffee on my graded homework, but now, honestly I couldn't understand more!

7. You have your preferred ratio of sugar and milk down to a science

Is it picky if I ask the Bruista for 2 and 5/8 Splenda packets? Doesn't matter, still asking for it because the ratio has taken YEARS to perfect, and you've earned it.

8. Your mug obsession is too real

Star Wars, Harry Potter, Doctor Who, you name it, your fandoms are crowding your cabinet(s) in mug form and your friends and family might already be planning an intervention.

9. If need be, you can gulp black coffee down like it's water

Even though your friends might look at you like you just drank blood, you're in a hurry dammit and sometimes there's no time for frivolity!

10. You get a little too excited when a new creamer flavor is released

It's 2016, and to you, the greatest innovation the world has to offer is your Mounds bar-flavored cup o' joe!

11. You get all of the gift cards!

Every Christmas, Birthday, Valentines Day and even Easter, you get at least one gift card to Starbucks because your friends and family just get you and you have no complaints about that!

Do you have a problem? Maybe. Should you care? Hell No! Forget the haters and embrace your love for coffee because there is nothing wrong with it, my friends
