Good news, Gramps…hackers can control your pacemaker! And someday, when the government doesn’t want to spend anymore on your social security payments, I bet they can just throw a switch at the IRS and…

If I gotta go, I bring a cup of joe. Everything you do has risks. Without coffee there’s 100% chance I’m going no place fast, so there’s zero % chance I’m abstaining from the bean.
