What is even happening?

Coffee even offsets some of the damage caused by other vices, some research indicates. "People who smoke and are heavy drinkers have less heart disease and liver damage when they regularly consume large amounts of coffee compared to those who don't," says DePaulis.
What if you smoke, but only occasionally have a couple of glasses of wine?

No. Nor was there a checkbox for "There are certain activities I prefer to pretend that my co-workers never need to perform."

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

You should probably still drink coffee. Just in case.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

hmph. None of you support my non-coffee lifestyle choice.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Allyson, I totally support you and validate your choice.

Of course I'm now drinking more coffee than ever before¹, so what do I know?

¹ This translates to three or four cups a week. I'm a wild woman.

I do. Because (A) I am nice and (B) you have an excellent reason and (C) you could mock me to death.

Ooh, look at ita and her fancy superscripts.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I DO! Of course, it's for purely selfish reasons, since I'm glad not to be the only one, but I DO.

Hey, I have no issue with people choosing not to drink coffee for their own personal reasons. Some people can't drink coffee. Some people can't eat red sauce.

I, however, will fight for my right to coffee.

Ooh, that's a nasty earworm.
