undercaffeinated
Lacking morning brew
Undercaffeinated describes someone who hasn't had enough coffee or caffeine to function at their usual level—groggy, slow, or irritable as a result: Don't talk to me until I've had my second cup—I'm severely undercaffeinated.
The word plays on medical terms like undernourished, treating caffeine dependence as a legitimate deficiency.
