I work at a coffee shop and have gotten all my co-workers to start calling lattes “hot milkybois”
I also got everyone to refer to the salted caramel blended drink as “the big salty” and I consider it one of my greatest accomplishments
Oh yeah and any time someone orders a hazelnut latte with almond milk (which specifically is a weirdly popular drink) I say “one HOT NUT latte coming right up!”
My coworkers have not latched on to this one like they did with the others for some reason.
I forgot to mention I also pronounce “hot chocolate” like “hot cocklate”… because I’m awful.
please give us updates
Our largest drink size is affectionately referred to as “Texas Size” so sometimes when I hand it out in the drive-thru I like to say, “Here’s that TEXAS SIZE [drink] for ya, YEEEEHAW!”
And some people look at me as though I have just made their entire day while others look like they they could not possibly get away from me soon enough. Both reactions are equally satisfying.
I made this into a game except when I hand out the Texas-size drinks I say “Can I get a YEEHAW?” And the guests always look mortified but occasionally one of them will let out a terrified “yeehaw” and all my coworkers cheer and then we keep a running tally of how many yeehaws we each get on the back of a pastry bag.
anyone else upset that they’re trying to give robots ugly, uncanny valley human faces instead of daft punk heads or tv heads
When trying to make an expressive robot head, this:
or this:
Looks good.
This:
is also perfectly acceptable.
However this:
is the stuff of nightmares.
You’re never going to make it look human, stop trying. Make it look obviously inhuman in a way that looks good instead of diving further and further into the crevasse of Things That Should Not Be.
same thing with prosthetics TBH, this shit looks simply bad and pitiful
This however looks cool and enhanced, I think way fewer people would look at this with pity
I once spoke to a girl with a prosthetic who was pretty excited about the new possibilities, she said people always see her as a broken human, as someone who is not complete, while she sees herself as a fully functional cyborg, and I found it quiet powerful.
Yeah, I recall the tale of a pair of servicemen, a man and woman who lost opposite arms. They gave them these very functional prototype prosthetics that use peroxide steam to work, but the artificial skin was hideous. They both independently stopped putting the skin on the arm and were happy to just glue pads to the fingers to grip with and walk around with a Terminator looking skeletal metal arm.
Gosh damn, that leg is absolutely gorgeous!
The key to good prosthetics is to embrace that they aren’t a real arm/leg but still perfectly good and useful instead of trying to make it a cheap imitation of a human limb.
why are non-millennials so personally offended by everything? like if i’m still wearing my jacket indoors, it’s because i’m cold, not because i disrespect your home/your classroom !! if somebody has got your order wrong, it’s because they’re very busy and simply made a mistake, not because they’re trying to jeopardise your meal !! if somebodies phone rings during a meeting/lecture, it’s because they accidentally forgot to put it on silent, not because they want to disrupt your speech !! just calm down, sharon, not everything is about you
my personal favorite is when you yawn and they’re like “am I boring you?”
like bitch i’m running on five hours of sleep and chronic anxiety
its funny how you say non-millennials as if millennials aren’t offended bei every little tiny thing that could possibly happen
being offended by wearing a coat inside is very different to being offended by violent racism but sure enjoy your tea
this next song is called “i know my feelings are important but ive been abused my entire life and dont know how to express them without dismissing them”. i hope you like it. *screams*
