And by the way, I tried with a cappuccino today, and unlike what I thought, it works fine, so long as I pre-heat it thoroughly.

If Thermos products are as good as they look, I may have found a new product to over-buy.
See the designs below. This is exactly what I was talking about (but hadn't seen anywhere yet) regarding Apple products, especially laptops. I would love to have a laptop in Apple's simple aluminium design, but with a choice of a few designs like this. It doesn't have to be flowers and butterflies (though I like them), there could also be some MANLY options, like, uhm, a bull... or a skull... or a dagger and blood... I dunno.

By the way, did you know designers are this cute?
Or that coffee drinkers are this heroic?

...boobs! ROFL!! :-D
Don't forget to preheat first with hot water for hot drinks.
ReplyDeleteThat is Marketing !!!
ReplyDelete...or a bloody dagger through a bull skull. It's called the "Chuck Norris Lite" design.
ReplyDeleteBut trust me, you DON'T want to know what the "Chuck Norris Hardcore" looks like.
(And my verif reminds me to beware the "inger". "Ya wouldn't lahke me when ah'm ingry, straynjurr.")
TC,
I like the way you think! ;-)
What does the "Chuck Norris Hardcore" looks like?
ReplyDeleteUhm... let's just say the "Chuck Norris REGULAR" is a real bull skull, which you open with a dagger to drink hot blood... FRESH hot blood.
ReplyDeleteThermos doesn't sell the "Chuck Norris Regular"...
And I heard that between the "Regular" and the "Hardcore", there's the "Chuck Norris Spicy", the "Hot Chuck Norris", the "Chuck Norris Workout", the "Chuck Norris Adventurer", the "Chuck Norris Battlefield", the "Chuck Norris SWAT Bust", the "Chuck Norris Diehard", the "Cranky Chuck Norris", the "Chuck Norris Slightly Ticked Off", the "Chuck Norris Annoyed", the "Don't Mess With Chuck Norris", and the "Chuck Norris Has Warned You"...
ReplyDeleteEach one EXTREME degree manlier than the previous.
The U.S. Military Atomic Weapons Division is still awaiting clearance to KNOW what the "Chuck Norris Battlefield" is about...
Takes the stress out of drinking tea.
ReplyDeleteThis is a pretty funny sentence. It might work as a slogan for a website.
There's nothing in the world so stressing as worrying if your tea will get cold before you finish it.
Strange, I have been consuming 1.5 liters of tea every day for the last 30 years, and it has never occurred to me to stress about this. But I will try to remember it from now on.
Yes, you gotta work on it a little, nothing comes from nothing.
ReplyDelete"Inger" makes me think not of mispronounced anger, but of Inger Stevens.
ReplyDeleteShe was a popular TV star when I was young, eons ago.
Update: Got mine today. So far, I really like it. Takes the stress out of drinking tea. There's nothing in the world so stressing as worrying if your tea will get cold before you finish it. (OK, maybe one or two things.)

ReplyDeleteThere's nothing funny about stress, mister! You are SO insensitive. :,(
"it has never occurred to me to stress about this. But I will try to remember it from now on."
Yay! That's the spirit, old chap. Jolly good, I say.
"nothing comes from nothing."
Really? How about an echo?
The more nothingness, the more echo! echo! echo! echo! echo! echo....
(Oops! Sorry! I was just talking to myself.)
"Inger" makes me think not of mispronounced anger, but of Inger Stevens. She was a popular TV star when I was young, eons ago.
And still you can't stop thinking about her? Man, that must've been SOME teenage crush you had! Don't you think it's about time you got over her? ;-)

ReplyDeleteLost in your thoughts again, Pascal?
