Is this why I always feel like napping after I have coffee? I have ADHD and I’ve never heard of this.

Hmm. Caffeine has never had too much of an effect on me. I’ll drink a cup of coffee and be ready for a nap 30 minutes later. I can even have caffeine at night and it won’t affect my ability to fall asleep. I’ve never heard of this slow/fast metabolized thing, but it makes sense.

I’ve had this happen once and have avoided it since by slightly opening the bottle (where some pressure gets released) and leave it like that through takeoff and then do it again for landing.

Reply to comment by MonsoonFlood in I don’t get the love for Charles Dickens by Old-Capital-7781
I loved learning about the French Revolution and, once I got used to the writing style, really enjoyed A Christmas Carol. I really tried to enjoy A Tale of Two Cities, but I felt like the characters were really wooden and one-dimensional. The only exception was the >!look-alike who sacrificed his life!< since he was the only one who did any actual growing through the story.
I also enjoy reading footnotes and endnotes to get more context for stories that were written in other times, but I still thought the book didn’t have any real depth. I was disappointed because I was really looking forward to enjoying this book.

I live just outside a neighborhood with > $2million dollar homes and those houses pretty much all have generators. The houses in the part of the state I live in are crazy expensive, so the homes in that neighborhood are large, but not crazy since $2 million doesn’t buy a whole lot here.

There was one person who wanted to be a police officer and they wouldn’t hire him because his “IQ was too high”. The guy sued and lost.
His IQ was 120.

I believe decaf still has some caffeine, just at an amount that wouldn’t affect most people.
