On 25 July 2015 Mentifex wrote the following in the Seattle subreddit:

"Which do I like better, Coffee or Ice Cream?
While I enjoy Coffee almost daily, I think about
Ice Cream way too much. Coffee is alluringly beautiful
in a traditional way. Ice Cream is a unique blend of
flavor and spice like you enounter rarely and when you
least expect it. Coffee reminds me of neuroscience;
Ice Cream suggests marine biology. Coffee has me all
figured out; Ice Cream says 'Everything in moderation.'
I have a chance with Coffee; Ice Cream is expensive
and against my diet -- basically illegal!
Nothing can be done."

Is it a "delusion of grandeur" that the above work of Mentifex
then served as the inspiration model for the article below?
