An oldie but still freaky. David Lynch sells coffee. Which, for some reason, reminds me of Family Guy‘s Peter Griffin doing his Danny Aiello impression….

Before coffee houses were homogenized into interchangeable Starbucks, and sucked dry of atmosphere and character, the espresso bar was a meeting place for Beats, musicians, writers, radicals and artists. Each coffeehouse had its own distinct style and clientele, and provided a much needed venue for the meeting of minds and the sharing of ambitions over 2-hour long cappuccinos.
It was the arrival in London of the first espresso machine in 1952 that started this incredibly diverse sub-culture, which became a focus for writers like Colin (Absolute Beginners) MacInness and pop stars like Tommy Steele, Billy Fury, Cliff Richard and Marty Wilde, who frequented the famous 2-i’s cafe. This beautiful, short film serves up a frothy serving of London’s cafe scene in 1959, long before Starbucks ruined it all.
Warning: If you do not know what this means, don’t Google it, just move along.
As a side note: I still prefer the Ice Cube and Ice-T soda fountain.

Marijuana and coffee are two great tastes that taste great together. I can’t believe no one has thought of this design sooner, although, I can see some problems that might occur here, like burning your face off with scalding hot coffee. Stoners often aren’t the most aware bunch and this contraption might require a little concentration. I’d think a coffee bong might work better but that might make for a bitter brew…
FYI, I can’t find anywhere on the Internet where the coffee cup pipe is available for purchase.
You can purchase one at ZANG! for $39.99. Thanks, Matt!
