Addiction
Two weeks ago Monday, I bought an iced tea maker to bring to work. The idea was, I’ve been buying too many drinks from Starbucks—one in the morning and one at lunch—that I wanted to have something here to drink that would distract me enough that I wouldn’t feel the need.
So far it seems to be working. The depressing part is that the iced tea maker paid for itself by that Thursday.

Ok, I can’t take it. What exactly is an ice tea maker. Is it a hot tea maker that then chills it? Is it just a cold bucket of water that you put tea in? Is it a mechanical spoon that stirs in the Lipton’s powder? I don’t get it.

Geez, man, it’s A.D., ask Google.
“Hey, Google, what’s an iced tea maker? Thanks!”

Clearly, spinn, you need to move to California and work for Yahoo!, where there is a Starbucks-esque coffee bar in each building, and the drinks are free. (I don’t drink coffee, so I’m not taking advantage of this benefit. But there’s Coke machines that dispense free product, too.)

But…you have to supply your own ice?

Way to be a day late and buck short there, Spammy McPochka. But I disagree with your suggestion – now you’re just substituting a coffee addiction with a pornography addiction. And quite honestly, when spun out of control, the latter vice will cost much more money in the end. It starts with 2-minute clip downloads, then $30 a month memberships to XXX sites, then $100 in ‘Girls Gone Wild’ DVDs, and before you know it you’re spending $1,300 per night on a hooker who will cost you your new job as the governor of New York.
Besides, this brainshot is old news. For all we know, spinn now lives a coffee-free life and enjoys taking his mornings no further than 2nd gear. Furthermore, hopefully he no longer surrenders any of his hard-earned wages to Starbucks… last time I paid $5.75 for a coffee that tasted like shit it was filled with Gran Marnier.
