Many people drink hot coffee in the mornings to wake themselves up. But I’ve stumbled on an improvement: you can wake up much faster if you instead take that hot coffee and spill it all over yourself.
Plus, while blotting the carpet, you then get an opportunity to existentially examine the life choices you’ve made. And how many mornings do you get to do that?

This made me chuckle. Also, can you not function when I’m not around?
I was trying to fix my printer when I knocked over the coffee — plus, I managed to blot it up off the carpet. That sounds pretty functional to me!!
But, just to point out, I was using a French Press, wherein you boil the water and add it to the coffee, so it was hot-hot-hot!
Sounds like a job for sadtrombone.com to me….
