| Small is Tall. |

o.O
the three sizes for unnamed coffee shop:
tall, grande, venti... ?
okay... to help out a little with comments... eep!
trying to keep up! sorry!
Background:
-It is true I honestly haven't been to a Starbucks
in years! There isn't a single starbucks in the
town I am going to school in AU and I usually went
to Coffee Bean or local shops back in home. So a
big sorry to those who are regulars at their
starbucks as this is not new news to you ;)
-This situation did happen with me being the
freely admitted noob (no worries, I have no issues
laughing at myself ;) although, I realize, what
doesn't come across is that the employee was
having a ton of fun with me with some great quick
wit, fun sarcasm and word play. We were both in
tears laughing by the end of the conversation. I
couldn't resist sharing. And if she remembers me
and the interaction, a big thanks for her quick
wit and having such a fun time with it.
-okay! now I understand! I finally saw the vid
with foamy the squirrel, an episode covering the
same topic (as this is definitely not a new joke
just the first time it has happened to me). my
apologies to those guys, and those who know of it,
it is honestly the first I've seen it. I think it
is really funny but those who aren't comfortable
with swearing, here's your heads up. It is in one
of the vid responses if you want to check it out.
Things I've learned from comments:
Grande='Big' in Spanish & Portuguese
Venti='20' in Italian
Sizes used to be:
Short (8oz), Tall (12oz) and Grande (16oz)
Then they introduced the 20 oz cup and called it
Venti,
So the Short (8oz) became the kids size
(still available when asked)
So... Their Short is the kids size, Tall is their
'small' size, Grande is their 'meduim/regular'
size and venti is 'supersized' and will make your
brain explode ;)
*whew*
