I stopped getting angry a long time ago. It's silly how people who spend their lives in an office throwing money at people to get ahead in the world define themselves on a drink that they spend an hour memorizing in front of the mirror. You have to laugh and think "if that's who they want to be: a non-fat, decaf quad-venti, half-pump sugar free vanilla, caramel macciatto with extra foam, then so be it." It doesn't matter to them if the person behind the counter has a college degree--in the arts even, which is something that in earlier centuries (and I would like to think now) is considered the epitome of universal knowledge--the "no-fun" macciatto in front of you is trying to prove that your existance means nothing without his six figures contributing to your hourly payroll. And so he spends $6 on a cup of coffee so he can pat himself on the back for helping out the little people

It's kind of the same way as when I think of celebrities and powerful people. They might have all that power...but at some point, they are going to be sitting on the toilet...taking the most disgusting, sloppy shit. just like the rest of us.
it's a shame they wouldn't be able to laugh at that.
