Hah.
Seems I'm one of the lucky ones who's name they get right most of the time.

Cheers,

Isn't an Americano w/o Milk just an Americano?

Agreed, but do you not find your habits of stressing that you don't want effing milk in your coffee stretches to places that wouldn't do it anyway, but you're so fed up with being handed a cup of milky shite without being consulted that you do it almost instinctively?

I don't like milk in coffee.

I make a point of giving ridiculous names when in Starbucks to see if I get any sort of reaction. To date I have used Benito, Adolf, Moammar, Saddam and Pinochet. Not one eyelid has been batted.....

Heh.
You should try and get one of the Belfast branches to write 'Support Gay Marriage' on your coffee to see what happens, or is it only cake shops that get annoyed by such things?
