Drinking coffee probably isn't the best habit, but it's definitely not the worst one.

The only thing better than getting a caffeine fix is making someone else jealous while you're doing it.

When future generations look back on our time, they’ll probably see our widespread caffeine consumption as a kind of mass drug addiction. To them, our regular morning visits to coffee shops will look as archaic and seedy as 19th century opium dens look to us today. They’ll pity us for being so foolish and hopeless. They’ll feel smug satisfaction about how much more they know and how much healthier they are.

But you know how else they’ll feel? Jealous. Because caffeine is the best and drinking caffeine is some of the most fun you can have and the best way to get things done. Because coffee and tea are two of the tastiest and most satisfying beverages you can consume. Because addiction is the best feeling in the world until you run out of the thing you’re addicted to, and we are never ever going to run out of ways to consume caffeine.

Have some coffee! Have some tea! Have both if you want!! Take that, posterity!!
