    I was filling my tractor cans today and noticed one of the new Wranglers at the other island. It was silver and had hot pink tow hooks on the front & hot pink RUBICON on the sides of the hood. The girl driving was wearing a pink ball cap and tee shirt do I didn't mind it as much . Made me laugh that it even had tow hooks as the only off roading this thing will ever probably do is the Starbucks drive up window lane. The driver probably doesn't even know what Rubicon means to Jeepers shame it's just a marketing name now. T J

    Isn't that a hot caramel venti latte with 4 shots, half skim milk, half almond milk no whip, extra caramel drizzle, no sweetener poured over ice with pumpkin spice?

    My 15 year old Daughter likes Starbucks but you are absolutely right they speak a whole nother language in there. I like pissing the little hipsters off by just ordering a medium coffee with Cream & 2 Splenda's and then repeating it three times to make sure they understand me they can't process it outside of their little coffee lingo. Pisses you off just because they give it a fancy name that they feel entitled to charge 3 times as much!

    me: "I'd like a large house coffee please"

    them: "would you like a grande or a venti"?

    me: "Which ever is the biggest"

    them: blank stare

    me: "I will have the grande please"

    Them: would you like the house dark, house french, or the house light?

    me: "I have my own house lights. Which one does not taste burnt? I'll have that".

    (20 people behind me now)

    Them: "Our house medium roast is not as bold as the french".

    Me: "Ok, that"

    Them: "Would you like room for cream?"

    Me: "Sure, that way if it's burnt, I can thin it with cream"

    (line is now backed up out the door)

    Them: "Ok, that's $3.25".

    Me: Ok. Here's $5.25"

    Them: Ok, your change is $2.75.

    Me: Um, should be $2.00 even.

    Them: Oh, I guess I need to use a calculator...

    (the peasants now have pitchforks and fire)

    me: I'll tell you what. You give me $1.00 back and you can put the change in your tip bucket. Please use it to further your education.

    them: here's your coffee, have a nice day.

    Me: thanks (I'd better line the paper seam up opposite the drink hole in the lid...)

    Smiling all the way out the store past the hipsters standing there tapping their toes impatiently.

    Nothing annoys a barista more than ordering a plain cup of coffee. They just look at you funny.
