How to Defend Your Coffee Habit:

What’s your #1 vice?

I’m not sure what my #1 vice is.

Yeah but Marty’s number one vice is good for his heart because his number one vice is Shannon. Except she’s not a vice, unless she’s a vice squad member but I think she would have to feather her hair or something and definitely wear more pastels and carry a gun in a shoulder holster or something.
I think I had too much coffee this morning.
