Call me "Old Fashioned" but... other than "hot coffee" and "regular"... I don't get the lingo of the Starbucks cult. Double? Grande? Latte? It's Greek - no, make that French - to me. It's too much work - what if I mispronounce something? What if I'm asked a question I don't understand? What if there's ten people behind me and my order is a pain-in-the-arse type order that's a ton of trouble for the person behind the counter?

OH, WHERE'S THE HUMANITY IN IT ALL?!

I want hot water that's passed over excellent coffee beans. In a cup. Hot. With cream and sugar.

Simpleton, I am.
