Starbuck sizes: tall, grande, vientee

Vien-tee? what kind of Nazi speak is that? And how can a small cup of coffee be called tall? Forgive my ignorance, but isnt "small" the opposite of "tall"?

Oh I see what they're doing! they call "small" "tall" because it makes the customer feel good when they pay $3 for a urine sample sized cup of coffee swell! This way it seems like they are getting more because the word "tall" is stuck into their psyche. I see their psychological marketing trickery, you tricky bastards that's what you all are!

ahhh don't give me that shit! When was the last time you went to "Taco-Hell" and ordered a taco "grande" and got a medium sized taco?

it's official, i have way too much time on my hands when i dont go to practice...:-(
