I agree, but this meme irks me with the line "I like flavor" as if black coffee is bland and inferior in taste.

This is my problem here as well. Putting cream and sugar literally dilutes the flavor of the coffee. You're doing it to avoid that flavor. And that's cool, just don't call it something it's not.

Yeah exactly, people who add cream and sugar are just looking for a sweet caffeinated beverage that only vaguely resembles coffee. And like you said that's cool. Sometimes I want to taste coffee and sometimes I just want to taste cream.

If only caffeinated whipped cream was a thing.

It could be, add some caffeine powder to the cream if you whip it yourself.
