At the airport in Minneapolis, my dear husband heads off to the coffee stand in order to buy a Decadent Frozen Coffee Drink. I ask him to get me a Decadent Hot Coffee Drink. He returns, with some sort of vaguely coffee-themed oreo milkshake for himself, and, for me: a "Depth Charge", that is, a large black coffee with a shot of espresso in it. This wasn't quite what I had in mind for "decadent", and I don't even drink coffee without cream and sugar in it. But he says the name was cool.
Thus: Men only think about one thing, and that's BLOWING STUFF UP.
(Still, it provided me a good five minutes of teasing at the time, and makes a far better story than any normal decadent coffee drink would have, so on the whole I think I win.)

On coffee.
Date: 2005-04-13 12:47 pm (UTC)1, that's a pretty cool name for a drink.
2, what a horrible thing to do to a shot of espresso.
3, really, what they should make is a drink called QUAD DAMAGE, which is 4 shots of espresso. What I have personally seen but never drunk is a Dead Ahab, which is 8 shots.
But it's true, these aren't decadent drinks. For that, you'd want a con panna, I think.
Still. Kinda hard to defend the guy. :)
