By definition, it’s only an addiction if it affects the lives of yourself and/or others negatively. Which CAN be the case with caffeine, but this comic doesn’t show that.
Other examples of neutral to beneficial dependencies include oxygen, exercise, medication, and the winning smile of Hugh Jackman.
In casual conversation (such as on an internet forum) “addiction” can also mean “physiological dependence to something not ordinarily necessary”.
Caffeine creates very strong physiological dependence.
In addition, due to its ubiquity, the actual harms of caffeine go unrecognised: people who are caffeine dependent are more tired and irritable when they haven’t had any than if they were not dependent, and also tends to cause headaches and stomach problems.
Not addicted though
I’m clearly addicted to tasty food since I am sometimes eagerly waiting to get to eat it lol

Yeah, had to think of this right away:
“Nope. I don’t gamble.”
“I bet I can get you to gamble by the end of the day.”
“You’re on!”
“Oh man… I don’t know how I’ll do it, but you are going down buddy!”
Is this from something or did you just make it up?
Seems like it could be from Dumb & Dumber or a similar farce, but I don’t recall Lloyd Christmas or the other one having a gambling addiction 🤔
It’s from Dumb & Dumber lol

Such a gem of a movie, gotta rewatch it soon 😁❤️
Probably the most harmless addiction there is though.
The rising price of feline excrament beans will eventually bankrupt you though.
Ignore the downvotes, it was a solid joke.
Do you think all coffee is shit out by cats?
That idiot must be fancy as FUCK to think all coffee is kopi luwak! 😄
Sorry, honestly thought the /s was implied. Anyways, what I pay for coffee has doubled recently, even for the cheapest figurative shit.
Just Kopi Luwak beans
I’m on Great Value espresso roast.
