coffee and tea

Used to describe unnecessarily over-complicating something, a situation where the simpler option would have been much more effective.
The term came about thanks to one man named Chris Smith, who is the undisputed king of this.

"You've really coffee and tea'd that project"
"Why do you have to coffee and tea everything?"

Empire Tea and Coffee

A coffee shop on Broadway in Newport, Rhode Island. It is a popular spot to hang out for high school age kids. It is also the maker of many a tea, the most unique of which is the bubble tea, a ordinary tea with small tapioca balls in it. The mochi is also creative; ice cream put inside a chewy rice paper. A Lite-Brite table is another innovation of the coffee shop.

A tight, tangled knot of loose hair and lint that forms inside clothing during the clothes dryer cycle. It typically hides inside garments, causing an annoying lump or a phantom tickling sensation against the skin until it is found or falls out onto the floor during folding.
