I went to a Starbucks once and he started yapping all this terminology at me and I just said "a medium hot chocolate, please".

Then got charged four quid.

you ever wanna really make their brain skip a beat

ask for a black coffee in the biggest cup

totally makes them have to stop and think and they always catch themselves trying to add something to it. I will usually add, no I don't want room for cream but I do want a little room so it doesn't bounce out when I try to start drinking it

I wish I liked coffee to be able to do that. Then again, their prices are so exaggerated throwing the coffee away after the bit has about the same value as drinking it.

i don't get their coffee very often but back when I did, it was like $2 for just a huge coffee. I'd rarely finish it but would do the job. When it started costing more, I don't go there much. When I do it's with a gift card someone's gifted to me.

Find you a small local place that sells branded mugs and offers $1 refills.

I don’t find it burnt tasting, but for my taste it’s so sweet i can barely taste anything else in it. I tried to like it but ultimately it was just not for me

Only when they leave it sitting for too long. If you can get a fresh brew its actually quite nice. That is a big IF though.

Lazy baristas or cheap managers let the coffee sit in the heated carafe too long.

Fun fact. Venti just means 20 in Italian. So when you order a venti hot latte, it's 20oz. Which is not true for the cold drinks, which is 24oz.

My understanding is the cup size is different because cold drinks typically have ice that gets added to the same amount of liquid.

It's a Venti low-whip triple-curler with nuts on top

I was wondering that myself. Perhaps they went in the urinal?
