> Unless you're prepared to tilt your head in an awkward position, open your mouth, and position it directly in the coffee stream's path—I don't recommend this—the coffee will go to waste.

If you actually *do* do this though, then you are the variable

Yes and no. With analogies it always depends on interpretation.

If you do this, you’re not “storing” the coffee for later use but using it directly. Later in the article, I link this to calling the function directly within another function call’s parentheses…

..but yes, you could be the variable too, under a different interpretation!!
