thermos full of Knob coffee

This is a thermos full of a strange beverage called "coffee." Apparently you make it by picking beans off of a bush and running boiling water through them. Look, I'm not making this up -- my imagination's not *that* good.

Knob Goblins like their coffee like they like their female volleyball players: black, hot, and spiked.

Notes

  • Until August 11th 2008, this item was called "thermos full of Knob coffee" and its description read "This is a thermos full of the coffee preferred by Knob Goblin laborers. They like their coffee like they like their female volleyball players -- hot, black, and spiked." It had been pointed out to Jick on the radio that other items state that there is no coffee in KoL and that this item was, therefore, inconsistent. Instead of the usual cries of "wizards!" or "shut up!", some changes were made:
    • First, Mr. Skullhead made an adjustment to the name: the name became "thermos full of knob chicory" and the description was changed to "This is a thermos full of a poor substitute for coffee, because -- hey, what's coffee? Knob goblins like their chicory like they like their female volleyball players -- hot, black, and spiked."
    • The item name was subsequently changed back to coffee several days later, updating the item description to explain just what this mysterious substance called "coffee" really is to the people of Loathing. There is no longer any mention of chicory or coffee substitute.
