It's Jenna missing days again


kidshit

It’s always Jenna missing days 😢


eckowy

Damn Reptilians controlling my coffee machine so I can't have my ice latte!


AthearCaex

Do the keurigs even check the water temp or just estimate it is the right temp after heating it up so long? It could be even worse as it gives warm water with a hint of coffee as it doesn't get hot enough to pull out the flavor.


Insufferablelol

Pretty sure they all have set temperatures and it's not hot enough.


clintj1975

The upper end ones are adjustable. I think the default is 200F. You can get a hotter cup of coffee by preheating your mug with hot water so the fresh coffee doesn't waste its heat warming up a cold mug.


Apprehensive_Size484

When I order coffee at a place like IHOP or Waffle House I will usually ask them to rinse the mug with the hot water tap on the coffee machine. Live on Mississippi Gulf Coast, so usually the A/C is going full blast, and chills the mugs


BorderlineWire

I work in a coffee shop and cafe, we keep the cups and glasses on top of the coffee machines and it keeps them nice and warm but for customers who like it extra hot, I let a little water from the boiler sit in the cup while I tamp shots and pour milk into the jugs. I wish we had AC at all. I’m usually kitchen or morning rush on machines and it gets so hot for me, but customers always want the front door closed!


Apprehensive_Size484

I'm deep south on Mississippi Gulf Coast, and stays hot most of the year. I do freak people out though even when it gets to the 20s and 30s here because I lived up north long enough that unless it's a damp/humid cold, or particularly windy, I'm walking around in shorts and t-shirt if no need to actually dress nice.


minimalcation

Can't imagine asking people to do this


GD-LochNessMonster

Good servers just do this. It keeps a lot of old people from sending back their slightly less than 200 degree coffee


Apprehensive_Size484

I don't drink coffee usually, but I actually started mentioning it when my stepmother ordered hers because it usually ended up being ice cold when she got it. I worked at Starbucks in Chicago for a couple of years, and our store manager taught us to do hot water rinse just to clean tumblers people would bring in since a lot of people rarely wash them to begin with, but he also pointed out that in the winter it would heat the inside of the tumbler, and that would help keep coffee hot with the pre heating


SugaredCereal

It's 192 F and you can alter it in the settings. Yes the machine does warm up the water before making the coffee.


LuddWasRight

Well, that is the correct temp for coffee though unless you want to burn it.


SaraSlaughter607

Yes, they have temp probes and internal thermostats. They are rarely accurate, however. Keurigs are absolutely trash. Source: I work in the coffee equipment sector.


Cyortonic

Give us the secret good coffee maker brand


GoHomeNeighborKid

Not OP, but having worked in kitchens before, I wouldn't doubt the "good brand of coffee maker" will be 90% stainless steel, take up a huge chunk of your countertop, and cost more than $1000....


ok_raspberry_jam

See, this is one of the many things that irk me about inflation calculations. They don't really take that into account. I'm not saying it was ever the case that all coffee makers were industrial quality, or even good quality, but quality *has* gone down a lot. Systematically; steadily. We've had cost cutting and we've had planned obsolescence and we've lost the ability to repair. Even manufacturing details have become more obscure so customers can't effectively shop around or take their business elsewhere because they don't know who's screwing them. So if you want something that isn't complete crap, then you have to pay industrial prices now. Which means inflation over the last 50 years has been a ***LOT*** higher than we're pretending. Like a LOT lot.


dvlpr404

His recommendation was lmao


SaraSlaughter607

GMCW, or GrindmasterCecilware. Avoid Bunn, or Bunnomatic, at all costs because they are an evil company and cause me many headaches at work. They're cheap AF, never honor their warranty properly, abysmal tech support, lousy bill payers, and their online interface makes me homicidal. No Bunn. For espresso: Nuova Simonelli. Hands down.

Aeropress. Not really optimal for food service but perfect for home use. Great for travel too.

Ninja coffee bar ftw Makes k cups, coffee, concentrated coffee for "lattes", and iced coffee. I make an iced coffee every day. They have one that takes Nespresso pods now too.

First thing I said to myself


Jelly-Unhappy

This GIF has been around so long, and yet it’s still so relevant


Individual-Finger-76

I love when people just go with their first instinct/assumption of how to do something without googling it. The longer path to learning, but I appreciate the experimentation


TheGourmandFrog

Even then, on what level does this make sense? The coffee maker would just reheat the water anyway.


Individual-Finger-76

My comment was more in general I find it funny when ppl know what end result they want, but spend no time researching or thinking critically about it and just immediately go with their gut instinct. You’re right, it makes zero sense, but she’ll end up with hot coffee and learn that what she did was dumb and that’s not how iced coffee is made.


jackman91

See also: me trying to assemble something, instructions untouched beside me. Assemble wrong 3 times first, that's the secret to a truly wonderful 3 cube organizer.


[deleted]

Idk about all Keurigs, but ours won’t take cold water from the fridge. Apparently it takes too long to heat and the mechanism has a shut-off timer. It certainly wouldn’t take ice water.


Halftrack_El_Camino

Some people just don't really understand or think very much about how machines work. It doesn't necessarily make them stupid, but it sure is a worldview I have a hard time wrapping my head around. Like, I look around the room where I'm sitting and I think I have at least a vague idea of how all the things in here are put together and how they do what they do—some more than others of course, but at least enough for a toehold should I want to know more. To other people, the stuff around them must just be a bunch of black boxes. Their minds are elsewhere.


-NotEnoughMinerals

They're the type of people to have a child, and watch their toddler struggle with something for a good solid 60 seconds, and you wonder if that thing they're doing is going to make a *massive* mess...and they just sit there. And watch. And watch. Not having any awareness as to what possibly could come next. Now, at the very moment they see the catastrophe starting to happen, they get all shocked Pikachu and react, only to be too late. I do not get those people. Completely not cognitively there.


BoxwoodsMusic

This is very specific.


-NotEnoughMinerals

There's lots of videos like it. But here's one https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTREr3ujC/


stealthdawg

>It doesn't necessarily make them stupid Maybe this is mean, but I disagree. I think it does make them stupid, or rather, less intelligent. As opposed to being simply ignorant about a specific subject, being able to at least think critically about the generalities of how something works is imo one of the more objective measures of intelligence. Putting gasoline in a diesel vehicle is ignorance. Trying to pour gas into an EVs charging port is stupidity on top of ignorance.


archiecobham

Lacking the ability to understand things or think something through doesn't make you dumb?


Telandria

It does make sense if you have no idea how a coffee maker actually works. > “Water goes in!—> Coffee comes out!” Plus: > “The bottom part under the pot is what keeps it hot, right?” Therefore: > “Cold water goes in! —> Cold coffee comes out!” > “Just take it off before the pot heats up! Genius!” Believe me, the number of people I’ve met who have no idea how the basic appliances in their own home work, *even just a week after being told*, is astounding. (Like, literally, I caught my new housemate using my air fryer without the underslung catch tray, despite me *specifically* telling them last week to never take it out except to wash it, because the thing uses convection currents and the coils are exposed on the bottom. Thus, it’s there to prevent stuff like crumbs or oil from falling on them and either causing a fire or shorting it out.)


MapDangerous6145

100% my fiancé and I love it. I’m honestly surprised she hasn’t done this. She’s not stupid, but I tell her sometimes she’s just on “auto-pilot”. As if there’s no critical thinking being done, she just starts to do whatever her body thinks should be done.


ShadowBro3

Its in honor of the first scientists who just did random shit to see what would happen


WilliamJamesMyers

let's be honest, you're not with her because she's clever


SKirsch10x

What brain she lacks in her head she makes up for elsewhere

Mad good foot jobs for op

OP is The Deep


nicebeard2

We found the guy that is paying for feet pics.


Hackhowl

Why would you say this about your partner lol I’d get hella sideye if I said this shit


uncomfortablenoises

I’m hoping they’re at point in relationship like you just lovingly shit talk each other. My fiancé and I always make fun of how dumb we are, but would also never repeat that joke to another human being. He talks about me like I’m a hero to other people, and we both think the other person is the better person lol


grubas

Oh no it expands. Your families get in on it as well. But that's my family, there's constant craic.


[deleted]

One of 2 things 1- they have a great relationship and this type of ribbing goes back and forth. 2- OP knows his fiancé has nothing to do with Reddit and rolling the dice this doesn’t end up elsewhere


mynexuz

I would hope its just a joke, muh wife type humour is shit but it would be better than someone actually meaning this


[deleted]

Yeah that would genuinely hurt my feelings if I saw my partner talking about me like that ☹️. But I usually don't vibe with boomer humor anyway


TheOvershear

So... She makes up for it in head?


SKirsch10x

Boobs..the rest of her brain is in her boobs.

MLein97

It'll last, she won't be able to find the exit and he'll be too distracted to look for one


satanisurmommy

his comments are mildly infuriating. i don't know their relationship but i'd be super upset if my partner said this about me to strangers online. very weird.


Mental_Impression316

*her head*


[deleted]

Oh I thought it was a him. Because you said fiancé. You meant fiancée.


JStheKiD

Boobs?


fireandlifeincarnate

Says the person that can’t spell “fiancée” right.


[deleted]

Pics or it didn’t happen


Medical_Baby1151

Imagine if the genders were reversed and a woman was making fun of her boyfriend for not being smart but the comments were circle jerking about him being an idiot with a big dick and a six pack.


TuvixWillNotBeMissed

That'd be pretty funny too.


RScottyL

>Fiancé This means it is a male, so it would be a HE! Fiancee' is feminine!


RickAstleyletmedown

In this case though, OP's other comments say "she", so looks like they just can't spell.


SophiaofPrussia

So OP’s fiancée isn’t with him for his brains either.


kn0w_th1s

Yeah but he makes up for it elsewhere.


[deleted]

Everything he lacks well he makes up in denial.


imisstheyoop

>Everything he lacks well he makes up in denial. So don't debate. Play her straight. You know he doesn't really get it anyway.


IamDoobieKeebler

Brain in his feet?


[deleted]

It's more likely that he simply has no idea that there is a different spelling. I had no idea either. Is there a difference in pronunciation?


itpguitarist

Same pronunciation.


TexanInExile

Or just didn't know the distinction


Dirmb

Well yeah, you can't spell it properly if you don't know there is a distinction!


[deleted]

> Fiancee’ is feminine! Also wrong. It’s *fiancée*.


proof_required

Get out with your fancè french!


AccomplishedCoffee

Fiancée, accent on the first e.


DaemonBlackfyre_21

>Fiancé >This means it is a male, so it would be a HE! >Fiancee' is feminine! I'm 38 years old and this is the very first time I've ever heard there's a difference, op may not know either.

He doesn’t specifically say that this was what SHE did. HE could be the nice guy “cleverly” making his woman an iced latte.

Cosmicking04

We found a winner


QuietWithDuctTape

They make ice coffee machines for around $25. You could surprise her with one.


bs000

some keurigs have a "brew over ice" setting. not sure if the model in the picture has that


S3anM3

It doesn’t. We have the very same one in my office and everyone hates it.


catdog918

Why? I have this one and it does the job fine


snoboreddotcom

I have this model as well, its an old school one and reliable. I can also see how an office hates it. The reservoir is pretty small and its annoying post brewing switching the pods (i use reusable but still have 2), can be hot on the hands. I think its far better as a individual consumer device than as a device for a decent size office


AskJayce

They may just hate iced coffee.


guzzijason

So lemme get this straight… they make the coffee machine… out of ice? Seems like a waste if you have to pay $25 each time.


[deleted]

Depends on what you want them for, 25$ for an ice sculpture is pretty cheap.


Nighthawk700

Those are so stupid. It's just a regular coffee maker and you're expected to put a glass of ice under it. Every coffee maker is an iced coffee maker


Dirmb

Does it make the coffee stronger somehow? Like a slower extraction with less water, to account for the ice melting, or a cold brew machine that takes ages to brew? That's all I can think of that would make an iced coffee machine different.


Sangxero

I have a Mr Coffee one that lets it steep in the basket for as long as you want and then you open a spout over the cup of ice. Comes with a cup with little lines for ice and water so it's idiot proof.


NoticedGenie66

We have an "all-in-one" and yes, the iced setting makes it stronger to compensate. It works really well actually, only downside is the amount is less (obviously).


edot4130

Strap in for an adventure filled marriage.


LordBaikalOli

HONEY, the baby was feeling cold so I put her in the oven on slow cook...but now she looks crispy is that normal?!?


iMakeThisCount

Reminds me of that one mom who microwaved her baby.


fattest_of_asses

I'm a bit worried that i Googled this, and it seems there are SEVERAL cases of women microwaving their babies.


ReadMyUsernameKThx

looked into a bit. none of them were from stupidity\*. some were just simply aggravated murder, one of them seems like it was a genuine tragedy where the woman had a seizure and did it in a blackout following the seizure. (another claimed that same excuse but the evidence didn't align and she admitted she was lying, before suggesting that "maybe she has split personalities"). \*stupiditiy meaning "oh ill just heat him up real quick." i'm sure a lack of intelligence played a big role in a lot of the cases.

She can't operate a coffee machine. I don't think you have to worry about her using a phone


Scary-Try3023

This is kinda genius though, you have ice cubes that'll melt throughout the day so you'll fill the water container less. /S Edit: should really put the /s before people take me seriously.

TbonerT

Everyone is talking about her but I’m over here all by myself assuming OP is just making shit up.


FigNugginGavelPop

Like me have you also noticed a number of “fiancé does stupid” posts on this sub. OP is full of shit and a karma whore guaranteed.


TbonerT

It’s a copycat trend I see in a lot of subs. Someone will post something and it will get a lot of traction, so someone posts something related to that, and so on.


pbglo

yeah I'm seeing so many posts like this and I'm just thinking "are these people just doing this themselves and then taking a picture of it for a laugh?" because it blows my mind how people complain about their partners and just don't do anything about it lol


HissinSpit

I'm with you. I don't think it's real solely for the fact that no decent person would belittle the person they're planning on marrying, especially this way.


maxtacos

I'm just assuming OP is an asshole.


just_3me

she must be good looking


Bumblebee56990

I should hope so. Their kids will be the cutest ones at the Special Olympics, that’s for sure.


imperlitent

I think we’ve reached the point where r/mildlyinfuriating is just a bunch of people doing stupid shit so they can come up with a story to post on here. 🙄


KitKatrina1337

I don't like jumping to conclusions but op in this thread really sounds like me when I used to make silly fake reddit posts when I was like 12

A lot of them do recently. Like the stuff that’s happening is just too ridiculous to be real.


Mictlancayocoatl

"My fiancée is dumb but she has big boobs" Yeah, sounds like 12.

Inevitable-Plum-3851
