I love glass double walled cups except that they're very easy to break.

Is coffee with ice cream "a thing" (like is it called something Italian and fancy)?

Because it's real good. You can also make milkshakes with coffee.

There's coffee-flavored ice cream? And yeah I guess all those coffee-shake hybrids that Starbucks etc do.

I always get real :ohdear: with prepackaged milksshake. You can’t know if it’s real whole milk and a good vanilla frozen custard unless you make it yourself or you literally watch the guy do so behind the counter.

And coffee ice cream is e.deece but doesn’t really taste like coffee.

maybe it's because i had a swig of a smoothie beforehand, maybe it's because roasted beans and toasted malt aren't too dissimilar, maybe it's maybeline ... but my coffee this morning tastes uncannily like guinness.

there's no head, so i know i didn't accidentally do a switcharoo...

With the bosses starting to come out of their hidey holes and back into the office the k-cup machine has returned. :iiam:

Brothers and sisters our long national nightmare of Monster drinking is, at last, over.

I once again have access to sub-par coffee delivered in an ecologically destructive single-serving preparation container.

you should

cold brew is great and so easy to do at home, and even lovely coffee can make ok cold brew

plus if you want a hot coffee in the morning you can just heat it up or add some real hot water if you make a concentrated version

While it's worthless (that is it is without value) developer time is nevertheless still costed. The solution will be "Just buy :coffee-r:" and from a business perspective this is correct.

They should let you buy any combination of modifiers like :coffee-pink-200%: for an existing smiley for only $5.

Or go the Discord route where you need to buy an Awful Nitro subscription.

I made vanilla ice cream last night specifically so I could have an affogato this morning. It's a beautiful day and I enjoyed my ice-creamy coffee sitting in the sun.

fun fact, affogato means "drowned" in Italian :smith:
