No problem. I can apply foundation like whoa, and I can sort of apply eye shadow pretty well (I don't exactly comprehend blending, I feel like I just smudge everything together and it works itself out okay), and sometimes I can do liquid liner like a pro (usually not though, I'm much better with pencils), but your eye make up is like fucking whoa. I can't even begin to imagine applying make up like that MUCH LESS OMG YOUR EYEBROWS, but what takes the cake is your application of lipstick with lip rings. Anytime I try to wear lip jewelry+lipstick I end up a giant, smeared mess.

lose/loose is my new grammar pet peeve. Its/it's still drives me crazy, but lose/loose? THEY DON'T EVEN SOUND THE SAME! HOW ARE YOU CONFUSING THEM? Just read the sentence and you'll hear it's wrong.

I agree so, so much about the bad grammar and spelling! Arjkhgdf it hurts.

Hah. I try to be nice to my baristas. It's frustrating to oder sometimes, because I swear, Starbucks-speak actually does differ by city. An order that gets me nods of understanding and a perfect drink in Brooklyn and New Jersey will be met with confusion in Philadelphia, for example.

And then they changed my frappucino! It used to be "Grande extra coffee caramel, light, no whip, extra shot." They changed it to the caramel light frappucino and I still can't figure out how to order the damn thing anymore. At least not in Austin.

Luckily, it's cold out now, and "Venti gingerbread latte, nonfat no whip" seems to be universal.

And I always tip.

I totally posted about my titties this week, too, lol! I'm sure you get tired of hearing it, but you can totally pass some of that extra tit to me!

As a barista it shouldn't vary that much. Keyword, shouldn't. I've had people fuck my drinks up and I'm a barista. I don't rage at the employee, but it makes me sad that my company can't get it's shit together ( ... )

Derp. That "light" should have read "nonfat." My fault!

Well the frappucinos used to be one set recipe on the board, not it's another. I am for: caramel frappucino, however much coffee used to be in the old recipe (I know, that's one hell of a variable), an extra shot of espresso, nonfat no whip.

And hey, I'm constantly counseling people on how not to be assholes to strippers, so I get it. Sometimes, I'd like to go a day without dispelling the myth that I should go work in Vegas or Miami, or the myth that stripper = whore, etc... but I've pretty much appointed myself a sex-work activist, so that this point I'd still have signed up for a lifetime of customer questions if I quit dancing tomorrow. :D

Wow, your baristas suck. I know exactly what you're asking. It sounds like you don't like the light syrup and they should have a regular frappuccino base. So it should be a solo, nonfat, no whip, REGULAR BASE frappuccino.

And I can't believe people still think strippers are whores. I just, I don't even. Seriously. The only question I've never really gotten an answer to was the shoes. I can seriously barely walk in heels much less dance. It doesn't help I have alien feet. The last time I asked a former dancer she said the red lights are awesome, and that's great, but a red light will not save you from landing on your face because you're clumsy in flats. Seriously. Now I miss going to strip clubs. Good dancers are good yo'.
