"-a bowl of Cuban coffee"

As someone who drinks espresso like it's water, this still terrifies me as a concept.

[greglance]

When they drink that coffee, they dont swim across, they frickin run on top of the water

[edelta]

Fluffy: "So Martin and I..."
Me: "Oh, this is going to be great."

[hotdamndan]

All good stories begin with "Martin and I..." and we'd be like, oh shit here we go. Lol

Someone posted this on another version of this video and it's so true:
"Cuban coffee is the reason crystal meth never took off in Florida."

[daninb]

I once had half a shot glass of Cuban coffee after having a great night's sleep...
I nearly vibrated out of my skin at work. Finished 3 days of workload in 5 hours.

Im a truck driver and I delivered in South Miami once. While waiting to unload the guy asked if I'd like some coffee. I said sure. He brought me a tiny cup of Cuban coffee and I was like Gabriel, "WTF is this?" I drank it and said thanks. 5 minutes later I got the shakes. By the time I left there I was wired for sound. I drove from South Miami to New Orleans, Louisiana before i came down off that stuff. Holy Shit!!!

"why is he yelling" this cracked me up. I remember I had a friend over in highschool. We were hanging out in the living room, my mom and her friend who was also Cuban, were hanging out in the kitchen. My friend got progressively quieter and eventually got the courage to ask me why they were fighting. I burst out laughing and had to explain that Cubans are loud and they were just having a regular conversation.

5:00 - Same *EXACT* thing happened to my father on his first trip to Rio. They'd gotten bumped to first class so the service was... well, to be expected. They brought out these tiny cups ("shot glasses", never heard it said better) and tipped them about HALF full. My dad was like;
"What's this?"
"Coffee."
"Really? Then can I get an actual cup of coffee?" With a disdainful look at the two sip in his plate.
"Okay, sir." Attendant wasn't about to refuse anyone in first class, but was clearly dubious. She withdrew and returned with a standard six ounce coffee mug (actual porcelain! on a plane!) and then filled it up with the same stuff that she had poured into the shot glass.

Let's just say: My dad came back to the US with a fucking stevedore packed full of brazillian coffee...

As a Puerto Rican and Cuban I can vouch for what he says

That coffee is basically liquid crack
And fluffy just overdosed

[jeffnaslund]

I’m a South Florida gringo. I can attest to the strength of the coffee. There’s a reason meth never took off in Miami

[lauracatha]

I met you after a horrible injury. You offered me tickets but I already had some. You took pictures with ma and my son. Marten took them to you and you autographed them. You made my son's day. Thank you.

[Fsilone]

"That is the only way Cubans can make that swim."
Audience: **nervous laughter and applause**

“Mexicans sound high, we drag [the sentence] out”
As a Mexican (first gen born in the US) I can confirm he’s not wrong.

"I'm not a -ito, I'm a -ande." Jajaja!!!

[nomadranger]

Dude I did something similar my first time. They brought out the little cup and I laughed. I said I'm going to need at least 4 of these before I'm set. The waiter laughed and hooked me up. I was working for Time Warner Cable as a maintenance service tech at the time. 30 min latter and I was breaking land speed records for running rewiers. I thought my heart was going to explode.

[dylancarroll]

I can just imagine back at the hotel, Martin walks in on him writing all over the walls.
Martin: What are you doing?!
Fluffy: WrItInG jOkEs BrO!

[johnnycajxrt]

My best friend made that same mistake, he went to a Cuban place, sent back the shot glass, and was given a full coffee mug.

He said that he didn’t sleep for 3 days.

[robertfrost]

Had Turkish coffee once. I didn't sleep for a month, couldn't blink for a week, but after the hallucinations ended I could belly dance.

As an italian I find it satisfying to hear spanish. I mean, spanish and italian aren't the same, but since they're pretty similar we can still manage to understand each other (unless someone talks fast). It gives you this thing like "oh yeah I can understand this language without studying it, I'm big brain"
