That was good but this is true. I was getting my oil changed last Saturday at the local quick lube. They have a small waiting room and they provide a complimentary coffee pot with containers of creamer and sugar. As I was waiting a man and his son of about 10-11 came in and boy exclaimed "coffee coffee I've got to have coffee". The father spoke to the girl at the counter then went back outside, but the son began preparing himself a cup of coffee. After noticing the boy was taking his time I looked up to watch. He had filled his cup with coffee and was adding sugar. He obviously liked sugar because with each spoonful he would put about half of the spoonful in the cup then barely emerse the remainder, just enough to get it wet. Then he would raise the spoon to his mouth and lick the spoon clean. He of course repeated the process 4 or 5 times then replaced the spoon, not disposable, in the sugar bowl. Thankfully I'd already had my coffee elsewhere that morning.
