If you want something, don’t play charades, just use your words.

This happened the other day while I was waiting to order my Personal Grande Bold at Starbucks. There were 5 people in front of me, I was running a bit late that morning and the place was packed, the employees were doing their best to run the place but it was one of those mornings when a Venti Bold or Tall Mild was not cutting it, it seemed everyone was into skinny mocha blah blah blah soy blah blah blah I’m fucking Important blah blah blah double shot blah blah blah extra hot drink… So they were running around like crazy. All this time, there was this guy at the counter where they keep the milk and lids who was waving an empty container of cream in the air. Yep, it was empty. Drama. He continued to do that the entire time I was waiting to order. Now, 99% of people wouldn’t be bothered by this, but me, that’s a different story. I like order and when my eyes keep being pulled in one direction for a clown who thinks he’s that important that people should serve him, I get uncontrollably annoyed. So when it was finally my turn, I gave my clean empty traveling mug to the barista and said: “Personal Grande Bold. AND some milk for that guy over there before he lays on your floor from the stroke he’s about to get”. The barista looked at the direction my eyes were pointed and started to laugh. She immediately went to the fridge, picked up a fresh container and brought it to the guy. In the meantime, the lady that had just ordered in front of me turned to say and gave me a disapproving look because maybe I hadn’t mind my own business so I said to her: “Well, use your words when you want something, that’s how it all works”. She said: “Maybe he’s deaf?”. To which I shut up her by saying: “No, Deaf people are a lot more resourceful than this clown. A deaf person would have gotten milk without using words without me even noticing anything was wrong at the milk counter”.

Fuck off bitch with your would-be explanations for everything. That guy was an ass then, he’s still an ass now and the only reason he finally got cream in his fucking coffee is because someone finally used their words. Me.. out of annoyance.
