Riley: "We're drawing up a plan for world domination, the key element: coffee makers that think."Is anyone going to attempt an explanation for this line?

Maybe simpleton- but could it be that Joss is just saterising the Government/Initiative view, they want to dominate and their solutions/plans are ridiculous. Its a wow that scene - Adam talks ie fist man, and Riley as the government is civilised man, notice how agressive and short Riley is in his language. One of Adams roles in the bible is to name things, Riley talks about Filing and naming things. Soooo we could be discussing the whole role of man since creation. Adam says certain concepts are hard for Buffy ie domination and agression but the Slayer is pre civilisation (but not a demon) and has weapons that are successful against the big bad. = civilisatin has developed in futility and is agressive but cannot defeat the dark side.

n/a
I just took it as a nod to the inherent naffness of Adam as a villian.

I think ASH has got it. Now Adam's first plan for world domination has failed he's come up with a much better one. And putting Riley and Adam together is a way of saying the Initiative were just as useless as Adam.

What was that with building a fort out of pillows? possibly that they're not very strong? maybe joss is screwing with our heads. which could be true.

I agree that it's an injoke, although I have to say, I think my coffee maker already thinks, and talks...I hear the voices callin me. ( YEp, splatty boy has sure messed with my head! )
