I love it! Please send me four crates of Refulgent Sunrise Finest Coffee. (ASAP, please, I understand there is some sort of climate crises that must be addressed, and I do not want to be late for my quadrathlon!)

Seriously, this was such a fun read- thank you!

This is excellent and very visual. A perfect statement on advertising and how it can take over a life. I'm suddenly very grateful that I don't drink coffee at all, and stay away from caffeine completely. LOL
