the coffee dialog

There's a "special" coffeepot at work. I mean, there are regular and decaf
pots, but there's a third one for the engineers. It's double (triple?)
strength, and usually there's a cute sign on it. Last week it was "Warning:
Spent Nuclear Waste -- may make you glow" -- you get the picture. Anyhow,
yesterday I came in and it was labeled "Osama Blend: Dark and Doomed" or some
such nonsense. Well, when no one was around, I replaced it with a sign that
said "Peaceful Solution Brew: You feel a little powerless, but no one gets
killed". Today, a new one has been added that begins "To the pacifist:" and
says I have no logical sense and am choosing capitulation. Many capital letters
and exclamation points were sacrificed in the making of this sign.

Thanks to a wonderful-smart-beautiful friend who was feeling more pithy than I today, the new sign will say:

"Hawkish Brew: Sure, it's strong, but it has a bitter aftertaste."

and I added

"(WAR [not-equals-sign] JUSTICE)"
