The point though, is that no one was doing it - no one got their coffee that way. The idea of 'buying' a coffee everyday was a completely new trend that started in the nineties (or at least really caught on then).
People didn't go to coffee shops every morning. Nor did they have personal phones, personal computers, subscriptions for music, movies, etc. Nothing like that existed.

Nobody did anything. No one had fun in the 1970's. They just worked like dogs, and did mountains of blow to keep going and going. Just so they had a little piece to give to their millennial children to blow on coffee and special toasts.
Jeezus, do you listen to yourself?
