2 COMMERCE/SHOPS/COFFEE SHOPS

Coffee shops are places that charge large sums of money for small amounts of foam. Especially popular among students, young urban professionals and the gullible. The coffee servers, or Bastardistas, are trained to confound and confuse. It is impossible to order a beverage without being asked a question. Example:
'I'd like a large, latte-mocha-choca, double decaf, decaf, caf with extra shot and sprinkles, please.'
'Is that goat's or yak's milk, sir?'
Don't even try to get it right. You cannot. It is impossible. Forget it. Move on.
Pain in this world is inevitable, but suffering is optional. Just leave it. Let it go. And don't be tempted to ask for tea.
