I always order a black coffee but inevitably get asked if I want milk.

If I had wanted milk I would have asked for a white coffee.

My mum doesn't like white coffee from machines. Always asks for black coffee and some milk.

The one-upmanship comes from the nobheads with the £1000 gaggia not the £25 aeropress surely. Aerophile here too.

Now although that sounds silly on the face of it, if I'm ever reduced to buying coffee from a ghastly hole like Starbucks, that's what I always ask for. I just want coffee with a splash of milk, as cheaply as possible. I don't want a latte or whatever other trendy-named concoction they want to sell me at double the price. And I want a small, medium or large one depending on the mood - I don't want a regular one as I don't want some twerp turning up day after day at the same time with a coffee. I just want one, of a reasonable size, now.

Gah. You've got me going now. Bloody coffeeist nonsense. It's just bleeding coffee.

You need to ask for an small Americano with room for milk. Or if you put your own milk in, just ask for black!

A flat white no?

Why the need for the word "flat"?

No, a flat white is steamed/frothy milk poured over espresso!

That is a macchiato.

Nope, a macchiato is an espresso with a spot of milk, which can be frothed if you wish. Its a short drink.

Do you lot realise just how fking stupid you sound - it's bloody coffee - a hot drink made with water, get over it!

Now, can we get this thread back on track please?

No wonder their "baristas" allegedly need three months training to make a bloody cup of coffee! Pretentious claptrap.

Hopefully this will clarify everything coffee related:

If you want to talk about bloody coffee, please go and do it on Coffeeheads, or some other such place full of pretentious and insignificant claptrap - or at the very least, in Food, Drink, and Restaurants.

To be fair; it is massively off-topic.



As well as boring.

Nice change from threads about the regular vs. super unleaded, supermarket vs. "proper" petrol stations etc. though.

My local supermarket has a petrol station that sells coffee.
And super unleaded. Although I prefer mine with sugar.

The Super unleaded?

Me: "I'll pop by soon. I'll be in my TVR."
[she knows what cars I own]
Her: "What's a TVR?"
Me: "The light blue car. It's very loud, you'll hear it. Just look for the noisy unusual car outside."
Her: "Okay."
[I parked up outside her house and waited a few minutes - I rang her when I noticed no movement in her house]
Me: "I'm outside, come here."
Her: "Which one's you?"
Me: "The light blue car! [revs] The one you can hear. The one with the private plate. The one I picked you up in last week!"
Her: "Oh, yeah, I see you. Be down soon."
[after getting in the car]
Her: "This isn't your Mazda!"
Me: "Yes, this is- you know what, never mind."

I still don't think she can tell the difference between my MX-5 and my T350.

Meh, they both look similar and both drive around.



I think men expect too much of their women, or more likely find crap to post in this thread. Saying a woman cant tell the difference between 2 vaguely similar cars is like a woman complaining at me I cant tell the difference between 2 handbags. I probably could tell the difference, but firstly I probably wasnt listening, and secondly I couldnt give a st either way - they are both handbags, and both carry your crap around. A womans opinion on cars is likely to be very similar - it gets you from here to there and thats about all.
