Eh, it’s all heretics all the way down.

Pick a preference. Go on. Any preference at all. Coffee? Great! All the coffee snobs agree that Starbucks is shit coffee. Then the pour-over gals and the espresso makers go home and wash their hands. Then the 40/60 pour-over gals meet with the 30/70 pour-over guys and agree that the espresso makers suck; then THEY go home and wash their hands. Then the 30/70 Japanese filter guys meet with the 30/70 German filter guys and agree that the 40/60 gals stink, and so on ad nauseum.

No group hates outsiders more than they hate heretics within their own group.

I just gotta say, I’m glad I don’t know what all that coffee terminology is, I’m better off not knowing.

This clip is the best way of explaining this phenomenon (and, if you don’t know him already welcome to the world of Emo Phillips)
