People aren't addicted to Starbucks for the caffeine, they're addicted to Starbucks for the grownup image friendly sugar.

I love when people say "like crack" who have obviously never done crack

Yeah, that’s my thing….caffeine may be addictive and maybe the majority of people in a lot of societies are addicted to it. But that addiction carries such a smaller amount of harm with it than all of the ones he compared it to.
Moderate coffee drinking isn’t going to give you higher risks of cancer the way cigarettes do. And man, smoking culture and smokers can be a real pain. So this whole rant coming from a former smoker…feels like they should know better.
The only other person I’ve ever known to hate coffee this much was a kid having to wait to open Christmas presents because their parents wanted their morning Joe.
