If there's a line for coffee I would just grab some water or something

Does one person stirring their coffee really constitute a "line"?
Older than 50 I'm guessing?

Depends on how strongly you care about waiting for coffee I suppose.

i can’t imagine not immediately asking the burgeoning barista to move somewhere else to load their coffee with their carcinogen of choice

At my church we have a pretty great system for this. Fill and step to the side. It's pretty groundbreaking.

I learned to like coffee black. Took about a week. Everything about it is great. The coffee line could be 10 people long and it doesn't matter because I don't have to wait on anyone to get cream and sugar. It moves right along.

people who prefer cream & sugar are generally the same type of people who don't realize when they are in other people's way

The Fairfield Inn coffee line sounds like a stressful situation.

I think I might just be inclined to sidle right up next to burgeoning barista (bb) and start getting my coffee.

Like, uncomfortably close.  Maybe rub up against them a little bit and make some satisfying moans "mmmmm-hmmmm" also.  Really let them know that I'm a friendly guy and I like to make new friends in the coffee line.

this is twice now where it seems michcat has a weird and specific aversion to the word "pot"

I'm with mich on this though - pot, in this context, would make me think of a round glass coffee pitcher.

well round glass coffee pitcher seems pretty close except for the glass part. but you're right maybe decorative container for human remains is closer

I would call it a coffee carafe, because I'm not a 'gloid.

"Carafe"  is acceptable but generally implies a handle. "Pot" is unacceptable.

Google it
