🎯 Pun
What do you call a sad cup of coffee?
A depresso!
Why This Joke Works
"Depresso" sounds like "espresso" — the concentrated, intense coffee shot — but with "depress" baked right into the word. A sad espresso becoming a depresso is a melancholy rebrand that any coffee drinker can recognize immediately, especially on a Monday morning when the distinction feels uncomfortably relevant.
🎤 How to Tell This Joke
Say "a depresso" with a flat, hollow affect — the sad coffee is communicating through its very name and doesn't have the energy to do anything more expressive.
Perfect for:
- •On a Monday morning at the office coffee machine
- •At a coffee shop when someone orders an espresso and looks genuinely miserable
- •During a particularly rough week when the coffee station is the only reliable thing
