Innocuous things that make you irrationally angry (a list thread)

Hey Jon, why don't you come talk about screwed up coffee orders with us. It'll make you feel better. srsly. I have stories, lemme tell ya

darragh will be playing the part of Benny Hill in today's thread

Ordered a whole milk latte at the drive thru a while back, ended up with an ALMOND latte. fuckin syrups, man.

srsly i went to have coffee today

have gone to this restaurant a lot recently and they bring me a capuccino

like srsly, no, i only have capuccinos in the morning

;_;

i HAAAATE sugar in my coffee but i'd feel like such a prick going back in to ask for another one

yep good old Dunkin Donuts. I could order a medium black and i'd get a raspberry latte or something. One of these days im going to go back and pay with rocks instead of money.

fuckin syrups, man.

srsly

sizzurps is sizzurps, coffee is coffee

never the twain etc

every time i order iced black coffee in a coffee shop (ie every time i order coffee unless there's an actual blizzard happening), i get stared at like i'm mad

and this wasn't just a few sugars it was a fucking giant bag of it. you could see two inches of the shit at the bottom.

I don't usually go back. Ordered something with whipped cream once and they forgot to put it on and Mr Veg says loudly to me, "Didn't you ask for whipped cream?" and I'm all "ixnay on the eamcray" and making pained faces at him.

the syrup thing is out of control --- ppl ordering decaf soy tuxedo mochas with a shot of valencia and 4 pumps of raspberry (not a real drink but I'm sure someone has ordered it)...if you didn't know they had all that garbage is that what you would REALLY ordeR?

my guess is that half the people who work there seem to not have a care in the world and are too busy talking with each other to give a fuck about your order.

godamn college kids.

oh this is giving me a good things that make you irrationally angry thing: coffee with milk in it after breakfast, coffee diluted by water -i.e. americano/black coffee- just basically all the different ways people who don't really like the taste of coffee take their coffee in order to make it not taste of coffee. SAVAGES!

xpost they probably just make coffees up ahead of time with whatever in them and hand them out one at a time as people drive thru

jim don't hate me but I can't drink black coffee. gives me hella stomach cramps.

never order it but americano is def not a 'coffee for ppl who don't like coffee'

The foofiest I get with coffee is a peppermint mocha at Christmas time. The rest of the time I'm straight up latte; mocha if I need a sugar fix.

anyone ever have that cat shit coffee?

oh you mean that coffee that's pooped out of some animal? It's not cats, is it?

i usually just have coffee at home, im in love with my Keurig.

I think its a Civet?

or do you really mean cat shit coffee?

either way, a resounding NO

kid next to me was having a ~babycino~ today

afaict most starbucks ish is basically a babycino in an oversize cup

Mom and her kid at sbux last night, 10 yo girl asks for half-and-half. Just a cup of cold half-and-half.

a) yuk.
b) wtf

My Mum would have been "Don't be stupid. Have a glass of milk when you get home, I'm not paying for that."

- ppl that are too precious about hot beverages

i have had the civet coffee, my bro bought it from some place in london (have a feeling it's one of the bigger/better known stores). It tasted great, was really smooth, with very little after-taste.

so it didn't taste like poo then

i microwaved days-old coffee this morning :x

and then i put milk in it, which gives it this hideous dull gray color

eh I drank a pile of horrible coffee at my in-laws over Christmas. sometimes coffee is coffee.

And I'll drink bad coffee, but don't make me put that horrible Coffee-Mate/non dairy creamer garbage in it. At least let me have some milk.

YES that is irrational angry-making: convenience store-type places not having REGULAR milk/half-and-half, fuck outta here with your hazelnut

They have 4 different flavored coffees here at work and a bunch of flavored creamers - ppl will drink caramel flavored coffee with french vanilla creamer. How they aren't hurling into the sink after the first sip is beyond me.

i order the coffee for our office (we have a keurig too), i order extra bold everything. People who want flavored can blow me.

my inlaws drink Stop n Shop brand coffee. Even after bringing some nice bags of coffee down for them for christmas, i get stop and shop brand.

People who want flavored can blow me.

A+

hmm most of my sons christmas presents, mostly toy story 3 related have all sorts of ridiculous anti-theft wiring on them...20 minutes to open Buzz Lightyear while your son screams at you is not fun.

Oh yeah, that stuff is over-the-top.

Pretty smart from the retail end though, I guess.

and the fact that in one aisle i can get the "limited" edition toy story 3 mr potato head for only $60! In the aisle right next to that one i found good ol classic my potato head for $10. Fucking Disney

people who are returning shit without a receipt and who haven't even attempted to remotely familiarize themselves with the store's return system who HOLD UP THE DAMN LINE for someone who just wants to BUY ONE GODDAMN BOOK AND HAS THE MONEY IN HAND TO PAY FOR IT.

GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE STORE

anger is rational

truth

people wh osay "only you control your happiness".

bullshit.

angry

as we have proven time and time again in this thread, our happiness is held at the mercy of morons on a daily basis

"Boy, it sure is hot, ain't it?"/"Man, is it cold!"/"Oh, wow, is it pouring!" and pretty much any variation on those comments.

I know talking about the weather is a staple of small talk and thus human interaction, but really? So what? It's the weather, it's there, do we really need to discuss it? If you're not mentioning how it's going to effect your plans or about to blow me away with your plans for an actual weather controlling machine, I don't care.
