Chick Flings Iced Coffee in Gunman's Face, Lives to Tell
Let's hear it for the 33-year-old Red Hook chick who, at noon on August 25th, "was approached by a strange man who immediately pointed a black revolver at her head. The victim threw her iced coffee in the face of the assailant, tossed her cell phone and bag on the ground, then fled, police said." WORK. (For the record, that is NOT how you are supposed to react to a "strange man" with a gun, in fact quite the opposite, but sure feels good, don't it?)
Seriously, an iced coffee won't even annoy them. Get that extra-hot latte flying onto their face, though, and they'll be screaming in agony and firing randomly down the street.
@deepomega : This is why I don't order iced coffee.
Also, because it tastes like crap.
That was me, and it was actually a skim iced latte. If you fuck with me, you will meet my takeout cup from Baked. I am from Manhattan, after all. BTW, Quarry, stop being a lazy blogger and put a pic of an iced beverage up there. TYVM!
WAS IT COLD BREWED
@3 Passwords Lost and Counting STAND YOUR GROUNDS.
@melis Fair trade?
125 dollars for a used iPod mini? Somebody's trying to milk their insurance.
See, if more people were concealed carrying iced coffee, then criminals would think twice before pulling out a gun.
Can you cite some sort of source for what you are supposed to do when confronted by a strange man with a gun? Jimmy Hoffa, for example, recommended "charge a gun but run from a knife."
@Sutton: And look where it got him.
