If I hated how to order something so much that I tweeted about it, I'd go across the street to another place.

I used to work with a woman who was responsible for millions of dollars of other people's money; brilliant woman, superbly educated. But, she would never go downstairs to the Starbucks in our building, on her own, because she said she thought they wouldn't know what she meant if she asked for a small or medium. She'd only go down with someone from the office, and tell them what she wanted and get one of us to order it, because we 'spoke Starbucks.' I never quite understood that.
