smell the coffee

When you hustle all day, keep working like crazy and are in execution mode 24/7, you often forget to recognise the amazing things you've built and done along the way.

That's when you need to take some time, reflect, recharge and be proud of what you've achieved: That's "smelling the coffee", or "smell the coffee".
"I've been working non-stop on these projects for the last quarters! It's crazy!"
"You should definitely take some time to reflect. Take a step back! Don't forget to 'smell the coffee'..."!

Regular Degular 

Plain. Not tampered with or upgraded. Basic.
May I have an order of regular degular buttermilk pancakes? Without all the added jazz? Hold the blueberry smiley face, strawberry glaze, chocolate chips and whipped cream.

Usually a male who likes to encourage weight gain in his partner through the consumption of food. Feeders differ from FAs... whilst an FA is attracted to big girls, a feeder gets turned on by making a thin girl fat....or a big girl even bigger.
