November 23 is National Espresso Day which isn't much different that National Coffee Day. But it did remind me of how I used to use the line "Espresso yourself and save a latte" a lot at work when I was trying to impress people with how clever I was. It was my punny idea for an ad headline for public transit. I thought it was so clever that everyone would hear it and think about how clever I am.
This was before I realized that I don't know anything and I'm not all that clever. And it makes me cringe now that I would say things like "Espresso yourself and save a latte" over and over to show people how clever I was. And I never quite understood why no one thought it was as clever as I did.
This is perhaps why no one is buying my t-shirt designs on Zazzle. They are all just too clever by half.
Wow. Espressing that is a latte to get off my chest.
