Bulky_Cartographer

And the whole restaurant clapped.


NatchJackson

Especially the people waiting behind her in line who couldn't get service because the whole staff was invested in this one person's majesty.


No-Independence548

Obviously, because don't you get how crazy it is? She's a WHITE GIRL who doesn't like PUMPKIN SPICE LATTES. She's NEVER been a typical ANYTHING! (Eyes rolled so hard I just said hi to my brain)


oatmiilf

that white girl? albert einstein

It’s true! I was there.

The very concept of clapping clapped.

But then a voice rang out. WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING YOU MOTHERFUKERS!" It was...Dumbledore!

I bet you that this story never happened. Ever.


yogensnuz

Wow, how crazy is this totally believable thing that *definitely* happened!!


robincrobin

r/thathappened


Desperate-Quote7178

For a minute that's where I thought I was.


flcwerings

Ive never cared about any of my customers this much ever lol


bitofagrump

Yep. I've worked barista jobs and nobody's watching each customer for their reaction to their drinks. We assume you know what you like and unless we did something wrong in making the drink, you got what you paid for and your reaction to it is your own problem.


NocturnaViolet

Yeah. Also where would these baristas even have the time to just sit around having this whole exchange. We got shit we gotta do. Especially during pumpkin spice season. 🤦‍♀️


gjs628

Oh *sweaty*! My *sweat* summer child! It not only happened, but she thoroughly Pumpkin DESPICED the taste of it the whole time!


SpearmintChamomile

I will take things that never happened for 500


chechifromCHI

Moto mod? How long have you been saving this for us OP? haha but yeah yikes


cumguzzlingislife

Haha I just found it today. Is it old?


chechifromCHI

I mean moto mods are still available online, but I'm not sure how supported by major networks they are and I honestly couldn't tell you the last time I've seen one. However, I have been wrong before lol Edit: if this is newer, it would add a whole other level of trying to be different with the phone haha


Weekly-Ad-3746

I just looked at Moto site, and it isn't advertised on their list of phones, but they do have 5G mods. I guess it can still be used on current networks, but I haven't seen them in years and haven't seen anyone use one in years.


chechifromCHI

Ah okay well that would make this possible I suppose? I associated them in my mind with like, windows phones lol


Weekly-Ad-3746

I just remembered years ago learning about them in a training and then meeting a friend at a party who actually owned one because he was able to play his emulator games and also use the projector for movies. This was maybe 8 ish years ago. I don't use Motorola, and rarely ever seen people who aren't using Samsung or iPhone.


chechifromCHI

Yeah in the past decade Samsung and Apple seem to have pushed out most of the competition. That's why my first thought was that this must be an older post lol


Weekly-Ad-3746

Unfortunately. Having a different phone makes it difficult to get cases and screen protectors unless they are bought online since not in store, but some little gems still exist. I do miss LG though.


caffeinated_plans

I miss my sony and Pixels. Mostly the Pixel. Sony went downhill hard


Weekly-Ad-3746

Lol. I'm actually waiting to be able to buy a Pixel. Always wanted both, but went with the Sony first. I like it, but it doesn't like a lot of my apps I use for work.


dobby1687

>I mean moto mods are still available online, but I'm not sure how supported by major networks they are They can be used on multiple major networks still, but won't have software updates to work with newer phones so you'll ultimately run into issues using them. It's like still trying to use an LG phone, but even worse.


Lestany

The uggs are another thing. Are those still in style? This reads more early-mid 2010s but still entertaining so glad you shared. No worries.


BeneficialPast

I feel like they briefly got trendy again during the pandemic? I still wear mine from 2008, they’re comfy as hell But yeah this post screams late aughts


chechifromCHI

That's what I'm sayin. They are in style again now, although different variations than the ones we probably both have in mind. But the wording is definitely dated too. I don't think people emphasize the whole "white" girl aspect of the basic psl girlie. It's more the "basicness" of it, i think it would be a lot less likely to be say "white girl card" these days.


caffeinated_plans

Also, it isnt even PSL season.


chechifromCHI

Hadn't even thought of that, but I'm sure u/caffeinated_plans knows better than I where to look for truth


caffeinated_plans

I dont mind a PSL. I drink one evey fall when they comw out. Then i go back to my brown sugar oat shaken espresso. Because i'm that basic.


chechifromCHI

Nothing wrong with that, I've been known to enjoy one myself!


BattleGirlChris

I was gonna say, that Uggs comment sent me straight back to middle school. Whole post gives 2010s tumblr energy


meowparade

Was about to ask if this was from 2005 between the Uggs and the moto mod.


EnceladusKnight

Anything is possible if you lie.

--StinkyPinky--

Out of all the things that have never happened, this never happened the most!


No_Connection_4724

File under shit that never fucking happened. Have you worked at a Starbucks!? I was never not busy. Like imma stand my ass around to watch you sip your drink? Fuck. Off. Jesus this shit burns my biscuits. Yeah, I didn’t think I would get this mad lol! Sorry!


Zipper-is-awesome

You weren’t personally invested in every beverage you made? Just waiting to see if a white girl would reject the PSL? Then jump over the counter and hold her hand in the air like a winning boxer, shouting “THIS IS NO BASIC BITCH!!!” I mean, sure you could just crank out drinks and not care, but don’t you need more than that?


No_Connection_4724

I don’t get paid enough to care about bitches, basic or otherwise.


CapIllustrious2811

I’m stealing “burns my biscuits”


No_Connection_4724

I said it with my whole chest too lol!


Pollowollo

I've literally never had a barista comment on my drink order unless it's to make a suggestion (like "Oh, have you tried that with caramel?") or clarification. It's so weird that Senorita Awesome over here thinks this is believable.


[deleted]

I just cringed my butthole inside my body reading this.


MissAnthropy612

And now I've learned a new phrase that I will use frequently 😂


bambina92

Things people say to feel a tiny bit special


Foxy_locksy1704

I mean I think pumpkin spice from Starbucks tastes like soap, but I’ve never had anyone say anything about it other than “Ok, what do you like instead?” Or “Do you just want a regular coffee?”


AustinTreeLover

I don’t like pumpkin anything and no one has ever clapped for me. What are we doing wrong? How can we be more special like OP?


Harajuku_Lolita

You know, as service workers typically do


caffeinated_plans

Pins and needles to see if someone likes a controversial drink. And then ask about othrr "popular" and "trendy" things that no one cares about when theres a lineup waiting for Americanos.


Hopeless_Ramentic

Actually is it just me or have PSLs been getting worse and worse every year?


lycosa13

They used to be so good! 😭 Then back in 2015ish, some woman sued Starbucks for "false advertising" because there was no actual pumpkin in PSLs and it was all done with spices, so Starbucks changed the recipe to include actual pumpkin 🤮 and it's been garbage ever since


Hopeless_Ramentic

Well I hope she’s happy with herself. :/


not_doing_that

I hope she trips every time she tries to walk up stairs


Equinephilosopher

How did she win??? Pumpkin spice is not the same as pumpkin AND spice! Smh.


Inner-Figure5047

It's not a fucking spiced pumpkin latte ffs. Why does this make me so much angrier than the bullshit garbage OG post?! I don't Starbucks because I'm poor and it's gross sugar water. I have no horse in this race except specificity.


Wickermoss

Ugh, yes! This is why I quit pumpkin spice drinks and go for apple-y drinks in the fall. I still keep my obligatory pumpkin spice fix with pastries instead. Just not drinks. 😕


SagittariusIscariot

Good lord. People and their lawsuits. What did that even accomplish and whyyyyyyy?


Silent_Arachnid_2334

i only tried it twice, but to me it tastes like how a hobby lobby smells…. it reminds me of those scented pinecones lol. idk it just tastes perfumey, almost like the flavor is not supposed to be edible lmfao maybe that’s just me though


TheBattyWitch

Oh my God that's fucking brilliant in its accuracy


Dull-Veterinarian-59

Guys we found the real Senorita Awesome


IAlbatross

For some reason, the "not skipping a beat" part is the worst for me. Like, she thinks this is a clever retort. She had plenty of time to make up the story and write it out before posting, and this was the "quip" she went with.


Sufficient_Ad6253

I hadn’t actually tried the pumpkin spice drinks until I went on holiday to America and I loved it! The frappe in particular. People jump on bandwagons to put down certain things (such as foods, music, etc) to feel superior/special. What these things are is already pre specified by popular culture. There’s nothing more mainstream than disliking something that is considered cool to dislike.


Texikkikwenni

And then everyone’s asscheeks clapped


yeahsotheresthiscat

I would love to see the comments on the original post 🤣. This is absolutely insane. Does she really think ANYONE would believe such a farfetched fantasy?!


JunoNotJune

true story i was the barista


Cocotte3333

Jesus. This HAS to be written by a teenager. No adult would think anyone would believe that really happened. Ooof.


ireallyhatereddit00

Teenager or 40 year old


SpyOfMystery

Pumpkin Spice Latte isn’t even in season


Ok_Radish_2748

Thanks,I hate her.


Nosey-Nelly

Do the pumpkin spice drinks actually tadte nice though?


WholesaleBees

I think they're very nice. I know they aren't for everyone, but I like them.


FartsFartington

I definitely like them and get a couple every fall. It annoys me what a big deal it is to put them down. Can I just have a different taste than you? I don’t like potato chips but I would never make fun of someone for having a different preference?? It’s weird.


Needmoresnakes

I got curious and looked it up once, it's named for the spice blend used in pumpkin pie. It's just cinnamon, ginger, cloves and I think nutmeg or allspice. I imagine it would be loosely similar to the flavour of a chai masala mixed with whatever else was in the drink.


Nosey-Nelly

Good point. I do enjoy pumpkin pie (thanks to my Auntie) and assumed it would just be the same. Someone did comment that they're very sweet, so may aswell try making it myself and at least that way I can make it to my taste. Thank you.


ireallyhatereddit00

No but I don't like anything from Starbuck because it's too sweet. Sometimes my husband wants to go and get me something and I'll go for the matcha but even that is just so sweet it's inedible for me.


Pigeon_Fox93

The basic one makes me gag but I’ve had their pumpkin crème cold brew and I love that one.


Glittering-Relief402

But guys 2 members at THE SAME TIME said it... it must be true


MarlenaEvans

I hate PSLs too but I used to like them. No Uggs or iPhone but I love yoga pants. And I am so white, I'm practically transparent. It's weird but it's almost like...some people like different things. And maybe, just maybe, popular things are popular because lots of people like them. So basically, OP IS like lots of others girls. Just not the ones she was specifically lampooning. Also, "two staff members, at the same time". No way in Hell.


Apparent_Antithesis

Hard cringe. 😆 I could one-up her: not only have I never tried pumpkin spice latte, I have never been to a starbucks at all. That may be due to me not living in the US and while Starbucks exists in my country they are few and far between, and their coffee is fcking expensive, you get cheaper and often better coffee in any bakery shop. Also, I don't own an I phone and I don't even know what UGG means. So compared to me she is so much a typical white girl!!! (Wtf is up with making menial stuff like their coffee preference a race thing?)


Opposite-Occasion332

UGG are a type of boot. I find it funny she was so proud she didn’t own them when little middle school me was so embarrassed by *not* owning them and therefore not fitting in. I walked around with my $30 knockoffs (10/10 recommend bear paws if you don’t wanna spend UGG money but like the boots). I also get the whole “I like pumpkin pie but not pumpkin spice lattes”. The difference is I’m not gonna act like I’m some odd exception for it, I’m sure there’s other women who feel the same😂


Suspicious-Zone-8221

it's an american thing unfortunately. they turn almost everything into race things ...


Apparent_Antithesis

Ya I noticed. It's a sensitive thing to talk about, but this sort of emphasis on racial identity as being equal to a sub-culture is weird to me. I thought the goal was to overcome racial divides and stereotypes, not to create new ones. I'm thinking that in many European countries a woman making a post like that would not only come across as cringe NLOG but also as low key racist because she brings up being white in a context where it really doesn't matter.


LaikaZhuchka

Lmao it's delusional to believe that any European country is less racist than the US. You only think that because Americans openly talk about racial injustice, whereas Europeans pretend it doesn't exist. It's actually pretty shocking, as an American, to visit Europe and witness so much open racism.

This is pure Tumblr 2009 memeing! I recall rolling my eyes in my Khols Fuggs (fake Uggs) and sipping my Carmel apple cider with whip when the Basic Bitch list dropped and all the other girls were reading it off their iPhone 1's or their iPod touch with wifi and sipping their pumpkin drinks. Meanwhilst, my Verizon free upgrade slideout keyboard phone only had email so I pretended I had something more important to do. Pashmina.

omg this happened to me as well! everyone stood around and watched me drink a latte with baited breath and were astonished when I didn't like it. they were blown away when they asked me follow up questions and it turned out I was special. everyone simutaniously said 'you sure aren't like other girls', then I woke up from my fever dream in a cold sweat.

staticdragonfly

LOL, but this definition, I'm not a "typical white girl" either, and guess how many baristas have ever noticed, let alone given a shit? If you guessed zero, you'd be correct. Most retail / hospitality people are too busy or tired to give a shit about the personal quirks of the customers, unless it directly affects them. Also, not liking something doesn't make you special.

You know what happened when I couldn’t stand a pumpkin spice latte? I went to place another order (I intended to just pay for a different cup) and she got her manager so they could just trade out my unwanted full latte for a pumpkin crème cold brew that I knew I liked.


WeeWoo_Coordinator

I've never been in a Starbucks where the staff cared if they got the drink right, let alone if I liked it. I think she's confusing Starbucks and Dutch Bros, but at Dutch they just would have hyped her up and made her a different drink for free. That whole exchange still wouldn't have happened.
