Your microwave is a time machine. Only explanation
My solution: have a single cup that you have to find and clean before you can have a fresh cup of coffee.
Also: don’t be hard on yourself because of these things. It’s how your brain works, it makes it you.
I do this for every kind of beverage, have a favorite exclusive of each of these:
-
beer glass
-
water bottle
-
coffee mug
-
whiskey glass
-
wine glass
It’s nice just using and cleaning one for each of these instead of having glasses clutter the sink from every time I get thirsty and need a drink.

I just keep a thermal carafe on my desk so I can warm up my cup every 30 minutes. The fresh smell keeps me from forgetting.
How are you getting through the day without coffee? That’s crazy.
I see a lot of adhd posts on Lemmy… all of which boil down to “normally I’d be a an asshole but I’m adhd so it’s a trait…”
This is the first that really seems quirky and unfortunate.
The red cup to the other red cup: “Hello again, Frank…”
There’s a coffee shop in Austin with two drinks named after these guys :D
Great, two coffees for me to drink! I am such a nice person, I made my future self a present.
Great, two coffees for me to forget to drink! 🙃
Tomorrow me is gonna pretty stoked for triple-coffee day! Think about how much they’re gonna get done!!! (I might sneak in a nap this afternoon in anticipation, lol)
Everybody here needs to see Triangle (2009). <br>
Tea, but same.
I always use the same cup and whenever I can’t find it it’s because it’s still in the microwave
And this is why do cold brew. Worst that can happen is that I forget that I have it in the fridge
It tastes better, too. I just wish I had a good way to make it at home.
All you need is a french press and they’re pretty cheap. You just put the coffee and water in the fridge overnight 8-10h and it’s good by morning. Way better than regular coffee imo. I’m sure there’s snobbier ways to make cold brew but I value simplicity
for large batches all you really need is a food safe container and some kind of filter like cheese cloth. i find it easier to cleanup and maintain than a lot of the more expensive ones sold as well.
Dang that’s simple. Props, I’ll give it a try Thanks
Gonna second the French Press in the Fridge method. It’s the one that works best for me; cleanup is pretty easy, and the only problem is trying to fit it in the fridge without fully depressing the plunger.
This is actually why I only drink iced coffee. Hot drinks get left in the graveyard dimension of my brain and are too time sensitive
I drink the room temp coffee as my punishment. Sometimes I’ll even drink yesterday’s cup, too.
Sometimes I read these kinds of memes and think to myself: “Phew, I’m doing p good, still!”
I’m sorry for your coffee, OP.
I most often find food, I actually drink the coffee most of the time
The saddest thing is finding some leftovers you were looking forward to enjoying forgotten in the microwave
I know… I love food and have a huge thing for not wasting food too
Lol I sometimes microwave something, then FORGET TO EAT IT 😭
