"Oli! Oli! Oli! I'm currently at the coffee shop and I've found my new favourite drink, these cafe Macchiatos are to die for."
"Yeah... they're not better than espresso's though. Nothing can beat the good old original."
"Are you okay? You sound kind of... stiff?"
"Yup! Everything's fine!"
"Now you're sounding really jumpy. You sure you're okay? You're kind've weirding me out and my coffee mood is dampening wildly."
"I'm not jumpy, you're jumpy. Why are you arguing with me? What did I do to trigger you?"
"I'm not arguing with you, firstly, haven't you heard the quote 'Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.'? And secondly, I'm not triggered, but you seem to be."
"No, no, not triggered at all."
"Hmm alright. I can't believe I've never tried this coffee before, it's heavenly. I think if I died and went to Heaven--"
"Hell."
"-- that this is what God would provide for everyone."
"Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die."
"Bit deep."
"Have you finished your coffee?"
"No I haven't, in fact, I'm going to finish it now. I'll call you... later?"
"Well that's a first from you that I thought I'd never hear. Um I was going to tell you something important, so could your coffee wait?"
"What could be so possibly important that you're making my coffee wait? I'll call you later. Bye Oli!"
"Wai-- Old habits die hard don't they?"
