“Useless Corpses”
Speaking of England, it has its own odd little historical anecdote about coffee. In 1674, the Women’s Petition Against Coffee proposed a ban on drinking it unless you were over the age of 60. Their reasoning was that it was turning British men into “useless corpses.”
It’s not entirely clear exactly what they meant by that.

The worst time of the day in the office is at 10am when all that morning-coffee comes out again. The smell is terrible, especially since I don't drink coffee at all, despite having spent at least 20 years in a coffeeshop. but that's in the Netherlands.
Fun fact: They're "coffeeshops" because you didn't need a license to open one.
