Here’s my “black coffee” this morning.
Double infuriating: everytime I tell people that “baristas” and coffee people can’t comprehend the concept of black coffee, I get back talk. Here’s the first coffee I’ve ordered in 10 years because of this persistent problem, guess what, they lived up to the complaint… they can’t formulate the concept of black coffee in their own mind.
I mean, I have Starbucks right around the corner. They ask if I want cream or sugar, and how much. If I said nothing, they’d add nothing and hand me black coffee.
