So I head in for a quick coffee in this corner hipster looking place and order my usual- Americano and the lady behind the counter says we don't call it that here, we say Canadiano.
I'm thinking oh fuck here we go.
Then I explain to her that the origin of Americano was a derogatory derisive term that the Italians used to poke fun at Americans for watering down a proper espresso so, since it's a form of ridicule I'll keep calling it Americano. She didn't get it.
Then she asks for here or to go and I say to go at which point she says they don't believe in paper (no cash either) and that she can pour it into a mug that I bring in...and I'm about to go all Chris Rock in "I'm gonna git you sucka" and ask here to just pour it into my hands lol
why is getting a coffee so fucking hard lol
- I think Canada's having its freedom fries moment._niko
- She also had no problem playing classic American tunes on the speaker, I should have called her out for not playing only Rush, Neil Young and fucking Bieber_niko
- Please tell me it’s not Canadiano on the menu board?mort_
- lol I was looking for it but didn't notice anything_niko
- This is what you get for ordering an Americano.palimpsest
- lol lesson learned_niko
- lol oh manYakuZoku
- Canadiano is the Canadian term for a red eye. (Americano, but replace the hot water with black drip)********
- Why do people order Canadianos? They're so watery and boring.jagara
- some prefer tea, which is more watery and boring on a scale of many magnitudes, so there’s thatmonospaced
- You don't know pango.palimpsest

- that's because you never had good tea mono!pango
- Lipton?palimpsest

- @monospaced tea can be awesome. You have to pay more for the good stuff.jagara
- lol, same for coffeemonospaced
- Good, expensive tea is still more water boring and bland than good coffee or an americano.monospaced
- I don't think you've ever had even a half-decent cup of tea, then.Nairn

I got one of these as a gift. Been using it for about two weeks for my afternoon caffeine recharge. It's really super for a quick cup. Actually makes pretty dang good coffee. Approved.
- yep, been using one at home for years and just got one of the new fancy transparent ones with the thermos mug for the office which i love.kingsteven
- 'AeroPress Go Plus' it's called... The inventor (also invented the aerobie) sold the company last year and the new owners are doing some interesting stuff.kingsteven
- Gift here too. Been using it for a few years now and it’s been great. Just bought a ss permanent filter for it, so no more paperGnash
- The guy who's invented the Aerobie frisbee also invented this? Huh. Well done, him!Nairn
- +1skinny_puppy
- @Kingsteven does the transparent version become discolored? looks coolSquiddy
- not yet. it's made from heat resistant tritan which seems like quite a new invention. they must be confident because if it gets anywhere near the wear of mykingsteven
- home aeropress it'll look terrible, but i haven't noticed anything 3 months in.kingsteven
- +1. Always take it camping and I feel like the bloke at the rave who had a pocket full of pills.MrT

Funny, I was "signed out" and every thread was "Oldest/Newest" and this was the first post here 13 years ago.
Pretty relevant since the Seattle Seahawks are playing the New England Patriots in this Super Bowl again.
I usually hate Starbucks but I'm rooting for Seattle this year. Lets hope they don't pass on the 1 yard line to try and win the game again.
- Don't even get me started. My neighbors understand that the inflatable Santa ass in my bushes doesn't come down until the Hawks win out. #feedlynchgarbage
- Signed - A Seattleite that doesn't even know the Starbuck menu.garbage
- Whenever I'm forced to go there I still just say Small, Medium or Large. I'm like Paul Rudd and refuse to use their BS size names.fooler
- My workaround is my gf calls it in, and I just have to pick it up whatever she wanted from the counter. Agreed on the BS size names.garbage
- Go Pats!! *sips medium DD w/extra cream, no sugarPonyBoy
- @pony I'll post my mug when the Hawks win this one.garbage
- Also my favorite Pats story is the time Putin robbed your owner of his Super Bowl ring. Classic stuff.garbage
