ice cream vs. cofee

[shadesofrainbow]

"'When people wait on an ice cream line, they're waiting for a treat. So they're happy, they're thinking, what flavor should I get? They don't mind the anticipation. But a coffee line is for drug addicts. And drug addicts are assholes.'"

- from the novel "Hypocrite in a Pouffy White Dress" by Susan Jane Gilman

What about those waiting in line for coffee or espresso ice cream? Are they the treat-wanters or the addicts? Or a mixture of both?
