casimir Posted July 5, 2023 Posted July 5, 2023 I'm not bashing anyone's coffee orders. If you like cream or sugar or foam or however you like it, hey, God bless. But I completely dumbfounded a Dunkin' Donuts (I guess they are just Dunkin' now?) today by asking for a small black coffee. I said a small regular coffee, and I guess regular means some amount of cream and sugar? I'm not sure. Admittedly I don't get out much these days. Quote

Motor City Sonics Posted July 11, 2023 Author Posted July 11, 2023 Today, On July 11th, I give my total respect to those who work at 7-11 on Free Slurpee Day. Americans a great at acting like nutballs when anything is free. I can only imagine what it's like when a Slurpee machine breaks down or needs to be refilled. I am sure the nutballs scream and curse and tell them they won't have their jobs if the little piggies can't get their free Slurpees RIGHT NOW. I've seen full-on brawls break out over the lead singer of Sugar Ray throwing a glow stick into the crowd. Injuries and arrests -- over a glow stick. Quote

Which is why folks put cream and sugar in it. Quote

I heard the vocals in the mix on the headphones at the board..............he wasn't close. Think -- the famous Linda McCarntey iso vocal tape of Hey Jude. Maybe not quite that bad, but not by much.

Yeah, you need to ask for a black coffee… a regular means with milk&sugar, but that’s not new - I remember needing to order it black (so as to not have it w/milk&sugar) 45 years ago. Other than that, just the sheer number of ways to order coffee preparations makes your head spin. Kinda insane. 🤪 1 Quote
oblong Posted July 12, 2023 Posted July 12, 2023 my wife gets mad at me because I only like black coffee. No flavors. Same with tea. No lemon. No mint. Just black tea. The flavor is there. I'm a basic guy. Same with hummus. You start putting **** in the hummus then it's not hummus anymore. 1 1 Quote

CMRivdogs Posted July 12, 2023 Posted July 12, 2023 I admit progressing a bit from my days of picking up an extra large cup of 3 hour old swill from my local 7-11 on my way to work at 4:30 AM. I made the mistake a few weeks ago of ordering a flavored brew from a newly opened local establishment that had a pop up at our community clubhouse. I was supposed to be chocolate something or other....back to the basics. Quote
