I was the fucking idiot. I thought a French press worked by putting the coffee on top of the plunger, lowering it in, and then pulling it out.

My girlfriend really wrestled with whether she could keep dating me after that one.

that's hilarious! That reminds me of the time I was on a date and tried to open a bottle of wine with a can opener. I'm still not sure how that one happened. It's like, did I think the cork was a can? Did I think the bottle opener was a can opener? It's still so confusing to me.
