All day I see people at work drinking coffee... I have actually never tried it but I have tried coffee flavoured things and they seem alright. I don't really like the idea of becoming reliant on it to wake up or anything though!
Do you like coffee? Do you drink it a lot?

Personally, i dislike it. Never got into it. And the idea of being caffeine dependant sucks. I know someone who has about 5 or 6 large mcdonalds coffees per day. That can't be healthy.

I went through a stage where I had one every day. More than one and I would bounce off the walls (espresso, not instant). Recently I haven't been drinking coffee as much, though. Similarly to Jacob, I dislike the idea of relying on coffee (or wasting that much money on them every day xP) but even when I do have it, it's for the taste and not that caffeine boost... Usually. ;P

Well, I've hated coffee my entire life. I've never liked hot drinks so having a coffee scorch my throat has never been appealing. However, my substitute to this (because I do need my caffeine in the morning) is soda. So while I personally hate coffee, I do have a substitute for it.

Tried it every now and then for years. Still to this day do not like coffee. Yet, I like something like it, like a frappacino every now and then.

I like it, so long is it isn't strong--I lean more towards iced/frozen coffee than hot

I'd say I'm addicted! I can't get enough of the stuff. In fact, I'm having a cup right now (mixed with chai tea). I'll drink coffee iced, hot, frappe'd, and just about any other way as long as it isn't black. I drink at least one cup a day, but typically pile on two or three in the afternoon, and I'm a frequent at the local coffee shop. Not only does it taste magnificent, but I also love the alertness it provides. I wouldn't say I rely on coffee, because if I miss my morning cup due to being late or what have you, I don't feel unbelievably tired or anything.
Coffee also comes (http://www.iflscience.com/health-and-medicine/health-check-four-reasons-have-another-cup-coffee) with a slew of health benefits! (http://www.iflscience.com/health-and-medicine/drinking-coffee-associated-less-clogged-arteries)

*points at coffee* His explanation is why I wish it was coffee and not soda that I was addicted to.

I am already pretty excitable. I don't think I want to meet myself on coffee. xD
I'm also not really a fan of milk. But I'm not sure I could handle black coffee.

I have coffee in the morning when I'm at work. I tend not to bother with it on weekends though, it's really for the pick me up I need in the morning to get going. I also have my coffee black with sugar.

I drink a cup a day, but I'm totally not reliant on it. Honestly, the difference it makes on my energy level isn't even that much, I kinda just like drinking it. I LOVE Starbucks caramel frappuccinos though. They really aren't even coffee anymore, they are more of a desert (a caffeinated one).

I have a new love for frappuccinos. Sadly coffee makes me tired instead of energetic because of my meds, so I don't have them often. :(

Well, and to be fair on my part, I do have a slew of allergies, with cocoa beans being one of them (we think because of what I've reacted to) and so I don't want to risk my throat exploding in a Starbucks.

I can't stand any forms of hot coffee. No amount of sugar dunked into it can dilute the bitterness and make it taste any better. Iced coffee, on the other hand... Well, even that can sometimes be too bitter for me, though I've found a few to be very good and tolerable, such as Caribou Coffee's iced Mint Condition. Don't have it often because I am a college student and cbf'd to take the bus to Caribou just for an iced coffee. My parents have a tendency to go, however, so if I'm with them I sometimes tag along~ (But even then, I frequently opt for a smoothie over coffee.)
Also, coffee/mocha-flavoured milkshakes and ice cream are good, mmmmm.

I can't stand the stuff, myself. I'll just be busy sitting in the corner feeling like I'm better than those darn coffee drinkers like a jerk.

I've come to appreciate the bitter flavor of coffee. At the nursing home I work at, their coffee has no flavor
I don't drink it that often. Its really more of a treat to me. I like mine a little sweet with maybe vanilla flavor, but just enough. I can't stand overly sweetened coffee drinks, like those cappuccino things at Starbucks. No thanks. That isn't even coffee, it's just a dessert beverage with coffee in it.
I don't like coffee that's too sharp / acidic. I can stand it, but I don't like it all that much.
Flavored black coffee is also nice. Just soft flavors like vanilla.

I only drink coffee if I'm too tired. Even then, it bothers me to no end. I feel my eyes twitch and my heart racing, and it gives me a panic attack lmao. I will just stick to tea. Coffee just has too much caffeine for me to handle.

I don't drink coffee or any caffeinated beverages, as of right now. There was a four or five month period of time when I was quite the caffeine addict, but I go hard or not at all. I decided no caffeine was better than an intake of 1 to 2 grams per day (a cup of coffee has about 0.1 gram). That said, caffeine, no matter how high the intake, tended to put me to sleep as opposed to wake me up.
I suppose this was more about coffee than caffeine, but to me any caffeinated beverage is all about the caffeine. I wouldn't drink decaf though, as I don't like the flavor.

I only have coffee if I'm really exhausted and need to be awake for the next few hours, or if I've had an experience that put me in shock because coffee seems to calm me down (despite keeping me awake so wtf). I despise the taste and how it makes my breath smell though so I stay away from it otherwise.

I usually drink around two cups a day, blended with coconut oil (usually using C-8 MCT) & grass-fed butter---lasting the entire day.
