Coffee: Come on, tell me. What did you eat?
Me: I, uh, don’t want to talk about it.
Coffee: Tell me! What did you eat?
Me: Y’know those chocolate boulders from the Bulk Barn…?
Coffee: You didn’t. You DIDN’T.
Me: I.. might have. I don’t feel very good.
Coffee: Those things ARE NOT FOOD.
Me: (indignant voice) Yes they are! They’re chocolate!
Coffee: No, they’re not! They’re wax in a candy coating. I can’t believe you ate them. Why did you eat them?
Me: I dunno. I mean, they were chocolate and I wanted chocolate and they were THERE and..
Coffee: I can’t believe you ate them. They’re NOT food.
Me:They’re not THAT bad.

Coffee: I.. (insert look of pity) .. I… yeah.
