Ethical Dilemma

[IzzyPop]

So here is the situation:

My father-in-law went into the hospital last night. My wife took of early this morning to visit him and most likely will not be back until late afternoon. And she took the car seat so I am stuck at home until she gets back.

Last night she brewed the last of the coffee and there is about 2 cups that have been sitting overnight.

Do I suck it up and go without coffee this morning or heat up the old coffee?

And secondly, is that a death penalty offense, or should I just kneecap her to teach her a lesson?

NO COFFEE!!? Them's "grounds" fer divorce.

By Biblical precedent, you should punish her and her children. And then remove any evidence of such coffee ever existing, just for good measure.

I disagree, I think he should make no "beans" about it.

 

[Braunwyn]

Agreed. Leaving you with no means to have coffee is unacceptable.

Sounds like someone is not supplying enough bacon for the household.

So she leaves me without coffee and then she gets half? Where is the justice in that?

That is the direction I was leaning.

No. Bacon we have. Kind of. It's turkey bacon. Does that count?

1. Look around your neighborhood for woody shrubs with blue or lavender flowers.
2. Take some of the root, grind it up, and add it to the used coffee grounds.
3. Brew a new pot.
4. Add 1/2 mug warm milk to 1/2 cup coffee/chicory.
5. Enjoy a poor approximation of the terrifying brew served by Mothers Cafeteria in New Orleans.
