It took me a while to get used to that too, but honestly, the warm beer was 
much more difficult to deal with.  It's supposed to be cold on the way in 
and warm on the way out.

My other problem is that I'm into woodworking as well as computers.  When 
I'm mindlessly browsing news and see an article headline that says 
something like "router bits", I often have to stop and think about in which 
context I'm supposed to interpret that (a router is a woodworking tool, 
into which you can fit a variety of cutting bits).
