£265 for a coffee

Like an espresso martini. You don't need a shaker and all that shite, just dump coffee and vodka into a glass.

I make my own espresso martinis at home. Fuck paying £15 for some overpriced, poncey shite.

To save money I sometimes use soil from the park across the street instead of coffee grounds and use rain water instead of vokda. You can hardly tell the difference.

I didn't there was a contest for making coffee. I thought the coffee machine did the work?

There's certainly levels to making coffee. Machine is just a tool, there are lots of factors involved.

Dialling in the beans, for starters.

Be some idiot who will pay it

Same as 2k for a steak with a bit of gold leaf on it with a bloke who lets salt run over his elbow

It’s remains a source of amazement to me. So many f***ing morons paid such a premium for a steak, served by some random bloke, who simply seasoned it at the table.
Marketing genius tbf.

Cheers, I'll give that a go in the plastic glasses I got out the bargain bucket
 
You can buy a 300 gram jar of coffee from Tesco for 6 quid. It will make 166 cups of coffee.

I will leave you to contemplate the absurdity of the price of cups of coffee bought from cafes.

If i was loaded I would try it, we cannot take anything with us when we pop our clogs so I would make it my mission to eat, drink, smoke, buck the finest things the world has to offer within reason.

Obviously a £ is a £ but the value of a pound isn't the same to someone with too much.

Even if a was a trillionaire, i wouldn't give salt bae (sp?) anything mind.
 
Whilst on holiday in Bali we had some of the Luwak coffee which is considered a luxury over there.

Completely wasted on me, I just necked it whilst our guide savoured every drop.

Nowt special
