nubbins`: "order me a triple venti decaf 120 degrees skinny hazelnut wet latte"
mircea_popescu: wait wait. so basically... they want to be me, except with something small that they can understand. it's not "build me a thing so and so and back and forth", which is what execs do all day.

nubbins`: pankkake, the feeling of power than one gets from having a very long-winded, very specific drink order plays a part in this too
