can i get off of your high horse sitting on a pedestal shit list of keurig users by saying i use one of those plastic reusable k-cup that you fill with maxwell house coffee?

I thought it was getting better at Sploid for a while (regarding blurbs), then it regressed. But I don’t really blame Sploid, that’s what it’s supposed to be. This, on Giz, is admittedly disappointing.
