Isn’t Starbucks just a tad affected when the have “baristas” and sizes like grande and venti and trenta and Huey, Dewey, and Louie? Is it possible not to want to body slam a “barista” who informs you they don’t like to put whole milk in a cappuccino because of “poor frothing”? I saw a couple enter a diner for breakfast carrying takeout Starbucks coffee. That level of self-absorption can cause implosion. When it’s ten degrees with a wind-chill of minus 15, why do women in skirts and dresses have bare legs? Is that really comfortable or just a concession to fashion that can cause serious illness? When I buy shoes, I can wear them right out of the store. Women, a year later, are still complaining about the pain (and apparently some hire other women to “break them in”). Talking to the movie screen or to performers on stage in a theater is not a cultural manifestation. It is simple unbounded rudeness. Trying to pay a dinner bill proportionately (“We didn’t have an appetizer and I only had one drink”) is the hallmark of a scarcity mentality. If you can’t afford to simply pay an equal share, don’t go to dinner. Eat the dog’s kibbles. I’m not impressed by a picture of an empty hall where you will be speaking. I’m impressed by a picture of a full hall while you are speaking. Revving your engine or playing your radio at jet-take-off levels is not a sign of masculinity, but rather a lack thereof. Learn of the former presidential candidate who drives me into the shower.
