Morning Coffee

I hate when people go into a Starbucks and the person in front of me doesn't know the proper etiquette for ordering their coffee. If you don't know how to order, go somewhere else! Am I a snob? Of course I am.

starbucks snobs

i always , and on purpose go into starbucks and not use the proper jargon to order my over priced and bitter coffee . always making sure some hopped-up soccer mom or some over the hill excutive is behind me . scratching the side of my head , looking all-to-confused , ordering by small , medium or large regular coffees . sending said excutives and soccer moms into a hellish frenzy of hate . i love to torment you rotten people .

You are not a snob, you are lame!

I could not agree more with the second poster. I also purposely order using small, medium & large, and I too enjoy seeing other people's faces when they think they are superior for knowing the commercialized italian sizes.

In response to the first poster, I don't think it is snobby, I just think it is lame to care!

I love Italy and I speak

I love Italy and I speak Italian, but I too purposely say "small, medium or large"... only because Starbucks is just so fucking pretentious with that menu. And people are so taken aback by it.

When I need to ask them for something other than a coffee-- like a sandwich-- I will say it in Italian- and watch everyone's faces go blank-- including the other customers'.
