TIL French press is just a fancy word for plunger.

I sometimes forget to say plunger when talking about my coffee and say French press instead, I often get funny looks when I do that.

Guess it's too fancy of a name.

I thought it was some new posh coffee apparatus then I looked it up and saw it was just a plunger. I have one sitting on my kitchen cabinet as an ornament.
