    I just smelled what was in the coffee pot. I'm pretty sure this is *way* beyond expresso. I think this might be a completely new substance.

      Only the individuals that want to ensure their manliness do. Most of the Indians don't, though (you can read that any way you'd like).\

      Nope, just seeing if I can win a Kindle. Otherwise, I wouldn't have bothered. That's part of being an American man, only interested in "what's in it for me".

          I consume whole beans, and grind them in my throat by flexing my testicles for 20 seconds. Once they've been sufficiently ground (the beans, not the testicles), I pour boiling water into my mouth and let the tissues of my stomach filter the caffeine directly into my bloodstream. That's the correct way to make "instant" coffee. Evacuation of the resulting waste product is probably best left for another discussion (probably in a completely different universe so as not to offend the overly abundant pansies that inhabit this forum). EDIT =============== BTW, how's that 3-d monkeyturkey thing coming along?

            You think that's bad, you should try being English and trying to get a decent cup of tea. Once you are out of the UK it's seemingly impossible.

            Curiously the best cup of tea I ever had was an Earl Grey in Berlin of all places. I thought the universe was about to end. But then when travelling back to my hotel I found the S-Bahn was running on time so things thankfully balanced out.

                  No, "Indian man" is an oxymoron, "American man" is a redundancy because American males are automatically assumed to be men until they prove themselves not to be.

                        That explains it all. American coffee is /generally/ very week; where else can you get a de-caf espresso. How is she making the coffee? Here maybe the soltion, buy her a good espresso machine for Christmas and find a roaster in NYC who will supply a very strong espresso grind for her. You will gain 837,493[1] attaboys for it.

                          Being elected to a political position is the same as admitting to being a non-man (yet not a female either).

                              I don't usually work from home, but today is one of those times when I decided to. Thus I was privileged to see how my wife makes coffee. I should mention that she is not really a morning person. Watching her "process" now explains several things, one, why she doesn't always like the coffee she gets, two, why we can go through so much. Apparently her technique is to use about 2 coffee cups worth of water. Then stumble over to where the grounds are kept and dump, not spoon, in coffee till the filter is almost completely full. It seems to me this is not the best way to make coffee, but what do I know, I'm just a man.

                                Coffee is for women who can't wake up in the morning so I fail to see how you can use your testicles to assist. Post-op?

                                        No, "Indian man" is an oxymoron, "American man" is a redundancy because American males are automatically assumed to be men until they prove themselves not to be.

                                        Just in case it's not fully clear what John's saying here, India and America are completely complementary from a gender perspective; Indian men are effeminate, American women are butch :rolleyes:
