Ahh college. 10 to 1 that has Raman Noodles in it
College? Those wood floors look much too nice to belong to any college student
You’re on. 10 to 1 it’s fillet of sole.
Note to self: Flash steaming coffee left me with one cup of extremely potent stuff. Head still spinning. Will try again on slightly lower setting next time so as not to scald hands quite so badly.

That made me spit out my coffee (properly made, of course)
“Properly made” $tarbucks and Mr. Coffee can’t hold an iron to a Bialetti Moka!
Most epic icon on this whole site…I want it. GITS ftw.

Now hear the ambulance, Lord
Using the iron as a heat source is the least of it. Gotta love the pile to keep it upright.
Yeah, I don’t think the iron’s such a bad idea, especially if it’s a dorm or somewhere that you wouldn’t have a stove. (Those look like pergo floors to me.) But the pile is really scaring me. A little stability would be a good thing.
Does that shoe make this a Stench Press?
a cup of Joe and warm shoes. life is good. WIN!
That’s a new wrinkle in coffee-making. I’d be hard-pressed to come up with a more clever solution.
Don’t aim for clever, just iron-ic.
You mean iron is a good source of coffee.
The new Ironman coffee maker by Marvel comic!
Didnt know coffee was a good source of iron? Looks like iron is a good source of coffee in this case.
One wonders where the right shoe is. Is the coffee man walking around wearing only one shoe? Was the second shoe been ground down into the pot as the main ingredient? Is it being used to hold another rug over and support an iron that is making the toast? So many questions!
I think I see the top of the right shoe peeking over the iron. Sneaky little fellow!
At Starbucks I’ve heard combos like “Mocca-latte-non-fat-extra-syrup-whatever” orders.
This is the first time I’ve seen a “Espresso-really-hot-regular-sweaty-sneaker-flavour”.
This also works for Pizza!
My wife is a corrections officer, and she catches inmates doing this sort of thing all the time. Usually it’s grilled cheese sandwiches, though. The business end of an iron makes a handy hotplate.
Why do inmates have access to irons, and if that is usual, why would they ever bother to construct a shiv from a plastic spoon? Because it’s too hard to sneak up on someone with an iron?
The same reason they don’t use parts of their TVs. Plastic cutlery (see what I did there?) is plentiful, as are paper goods that can be rolled up tight, toothbrush handles, etc., and therefore expendable. It’s okay for that stuff to get taken away, but once back from a trip to the hole, they probably would like to have access to their iron and TV again.
Rephrasing question: Why would you even need an iron? The police there are not the fashion kind. And I think human rights organizations will back me up when I say that wrinkled clothing is not a real concern in such a situation.
1) some people , even on the inside, have standards… and
2) press your suit for the court appearances as
3) some people inside are not actually convicted yet, merely held on bail
Thank you! For no good reason, I would have continued to be bothered by that…
“barista, my espresso smells …..odd.”
“Thanks mom, these new tennis shoes are smokin”!”
All right, already. Is this the artist formerly known as “slapchop,” and if so, just what the heck kind of an identity crisis are you having here?

“Watch out for snakes.”
*guffaw*
Nothing like a steamin’ cup of joe in the morning.
After you’ve poured yourself a cup, you fill up the iron with milk and then hit the “steam” setting – perfect cappucino every time!
The name and rules for it vary from place to place, but what we have here is nothing more than some household items getting together and engaging in a friendly game of Buck Buck.
a shoes balm!
and wow! it’s also a shoes warmer???
i’ll would love my shoes smelling cofee opposite to my malodorousness!
that’s how it works:
the first absent-minded person who kick that stuff on the way will have nice cofee smelling hot shoes!!!

I think the coffee’s heating the iron. The fixer’s going to need it, what with the coffee stains that are most likely all over the rug.
Some “fixings” of this blog are often strange works that we don’t actually have a clue for what those are.
But this is defintely an epic fix!
I could handle going to work with wrinkled clothes, but no way could I get there without my coffee.
Because when you set exposed, scorching bits of metal on the floor, it’s a fantastic idea to remove your shoes first.
The caffeine equivalent of cooking heroin over a cigarette lighter in a spoon. I guess someone needs their fix really badly.
First cup’s free.
The drunken bacon ironing society strikes again.
No, seriously, google it. Drunken bacon ironing society. I’m not kidding.
I did. K’s not.
Hell, I ran that stupid phrase through Searchalot and got nothing.
I used to do that in military barracks pretty often. We’d put some aluminum foil down and cook hot dogs on it.
In Soviet Russia, iron is a good source of espresso!
5:30am: arright honey I’m goin for my morning run!
(snore response)
ah guess she too busy gettin her beauty sleep
5:31am: AAAAAUUUUGH!!! WHAT THE…….?? WHO THE…..??? HOW THE….??? WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO MY RIGHT SHOE????
(maniac laughter from the bedroom)
“Here at Kludgeco, we put the ‘press’ back into espresso.”
Excuse me sir, does Kludgeco build throttle bodies for Toyotas?
That is someone with a serious coffee jones!
That would work.
I can’t even walk until I’ve had my morning coffee…
Oh my god this is actually a really good idea!
Scott Adams _Dilbert_ cartoon: evil accountant, rejecting an expense claim for a meal: “You’re supposed to stun a pidgeon and cook it on your travel iron.” Dilbert: “I tried, but it was taking too long.” Evil accountant: “Use the ‘wool’ setting.”
This makes me wish I had taken pictures when I was in college 12 years ago…I used to use an iron as a hotplate to heat canned food and boil water all the time (I lived in a shared house with an elderly landlady, which meant I couldn’t use the kitchen late at night without pissing her off!)…I made a stand out of a box and coathangers to keep mine upright!
Well…the hotel brochure did say coffee service in every room…
