Coffee is a caffeine-conveyance mechanism with a pleasant ritual attached -- it's not fine wine, it's not gourmet chocolate, it's coffee.

TALK ABOUT YOUR UNCANNY VALLEY
[15:19] <Mizunomics01>
The term "uncanny valley" refers to Masahiro Mori-hakase's hypothesis that states that as a robot is made more humanlike (or in this case animal-like) in its appearance and motion, the emotional response from a human being to the robot will become increasingly positive and empathic, until a point is reached beyond which the response quickly becomes that of strong repulsion. However, as the appearance and motion continue to become less distinguishable from a human being, the emotional response becomes positive once more and approaches human-to-human empathy levels.
