I don’t blame this guy. That is exactly how I feel every time I try to order a large coffee with milk at Starbucks and the goth kid who works there insists that it’s called a “Venti Caffè Misto.” YOU WORK AT A DRIVE-THROUGH COFFEE SHOP, YOU PIMPLY-FACED BRAT. DON’T ACT LIKE YOU’RE A HARVARD PROFESSOR TEACHING ME ABOUT THE FRENCH REVOLUTION. IT’S CALLED A CAFÉ AU LAIT ANYWAY!!
* passes out *

Copy & paste this:
thats Mr. Pregnant from You Tube
I came here to confirm that and I’m glad I was right.
SNAKA-SNAHOW
Well, on the bright side, if he DID pass out, at least the folks standing around are giving him plenty of space. It’s a darned odd outfit, but I wonder if he is sleeping off a drunk and didn’t get his coffee quickly enough, or if he really did faint. Did anyone think to call 911? (Even just on general principles?)
I kind of want to know the story behind this too. I would hope there is something about him being a drama queen or faking. I’d be pretty pissed if I saw that many people that disinterested over someone splayed on the floor, even if they were dressed like that.
Maybe someone at the door…”oh, don’t mind Bob over there, he’s just sleeping it off”
Mr Pregnant is just a guy who is utterly insane. That’s all there is to it. He is an utter lunatic.
Sorry, but it’s in italian… That’s why it’s not written café au lait.
Anyway, it’s not really important!
Rant Fail, “venti caffe misto” = italian (ish); “Cafe au lait” = French. Funny how no one seems concerned about the strangely dressed man on the floor.
And what nationality is Starbucks? Italian or French?
TouchéWell played, sir.it’s Fretalian
That’s what you get for patronizing Starbucks.
I’m pretty sure thats a man from youtube. His channel name is Mr pregnant or something like that.
That would be Italian.
I swear he looks like Mr. Pregnant!
Hmmm, are we sure this man didn’t just faint because his clothes are too tight? I mean inappropriately tight here, I can make out the shape of his chest area (among others), clearly and I’m using a very small screen here.
Also, monotone pastel pink? Fashion ninjas may be responsible for him being down like that.
WIN!! The world needs fashion ninjas. So stealthy the other partons haven’t noticed yet.
I had to thumbs up this just for the caption.
Isn’t that a Tim Hortons?
That does look like Tim Hortons… Yeah. I think is is.
This is definitely a Tim Horton’s. In East Van if I had a guess.

Yep, thats the one and only Mr. Pregnant!
I did’nt know Manny Ramirez spent time as a drag queen during his his vacays..
And nobody there looks like they’re wondering wtf is up with him.

No, that’s a Starbucks. Notice the “via ready brew” on display, the rounded glass case on top of the “Ready to Eat and Drink” thing? I used to work at a Starbucks, and as a Canadian who grew up on Tim Hortons, I can say, no that does NOT look like the inside of a Timmie’s unless the one’s in the US are copying Starbucks interiors.
And a “cafe misto” is coffee with STEAMED milk, if you want to put milk in your coffee, the barista asks if you’d like room in the cup for dairy. Also the accent is going the wrong way in the comment below the picture. Silly commenter ranting about Sbux employees (they’re just doing their jobs, they’re supposed to politely correct mistakes so the customer knows exactly what to order the next time) and they make an even bigger fail.
Also, misto is Italian and cafe au lait is French (not gonna do the accent). They both basically mean the same thing. Most of the “fancy” Starbucks terms are just the Italian word for something very simple. For instance “Venti” just means 20, as in, 20 ounces (double checked in Google Translate). I’m sure there are exceptions but that is how it generally goes. At least when I worked there, anyway. Any emo twat barista that corrects a customer from “coffee with milk” or “cafe au lait” to “misto” needs to get written up or fired. It’s their job to translate, not the customers’.
In other news, lulz at the fat guy passed out. I’d totally ignore him too, and let the police drag him out (after a cursory examination to make sure he wasn’t dying).
This guy is world famous, been on MTV, VH1, G4TV, COMEDY CENTRAL, Chappelle Show. Here’s his youtube channel.

LOL. The main video currently on his page is both alarming and uneventful at the same time.
You fail as as Starbucks customer; if you asked for a large coffee for milk and I were a barista in a bad mood that day, I’d give you a venti coffee with a splash of cold milk. If you want cafe au lait, you should ask for a venti misto. The barista is probably not “goth.” If I had to deal with some proud-ass customer who kept ordering a drink he doesn’t even want, I’d probably seem drab and superior as well. Stop blaming your coffee ignorance on the coffee shop employees. Urgh.
fail.
thank you, whoever you are. people don’t care $hit about ordering something wrong and then raising hell because that goth emo dude made “the wrong drink.” whatevs.
So. . . is this a bad time to point out that no self-respecting goth would be anwhere near a Starbucks? Preps and nerds, perhaps even a somewhat depressed jock, but no goths.
SNEKKA DI QUOC QUOC
i work at starbucks. i don’t care what the f*** you call it, i’m not going to correct you. i’m just going to make the drink you want. don’t be a d**k and blame the barista for the names the company puts on it’s drink. you realized we don’t make s**t, right?
ps. this guy is hilarious
He’s faking!!! Just another fat, hairy, skimpy pink outfit wearing, attention whore looking for a cheap thrill!!!
he DB, they dont let goths work at starbucks. they pay great and offer full benefits. look at the menu and order something we offer retard.
firstly, starbucks ‘vernacular’ is based on the italian language, and cafe au lait is actually the french version of the very american latte.
which in italian would be caffe misto. so if you’re looking for coffee with milk, make it your damn self
too bad its italian not french dumb ass
For your information it is not called a cafe au lait anymore Starbucks changed it to cafe misto. Further more I also work for this company, and just like Camille said I dont care how you ask for your drink or if you ask for a large instead of a venti, you are still getting a LARGE cup of coffee, I mean for real that is what you came in there for so shut up and take your coffee and leave. You do realize that we are the ones making your drink so if you make us mad we will be more than happy to give you DECAF instead of regular. So go ahead and be one of my regular a** whole customers that comes in every morning for your morning cup of coffee cause I have no problem messing up your drink. Thanks
Clearly the triple-shot espresso did not work.
Yeah it’s misto. And Cafe au lait in louisiana is ALWAYS made with chicory coffee. I worked at Starbucks, and I hate the self-righteous coffee snobs who really don’t know squat. Yeah. I worked at starbucks. Yeah, I’ve always been drinking coffee since before I was a year old. My great grandmother gave my grandmother coffee in her bottle, and she in turn did the same thing with my mother. It’s a family tradition. And I’ve been drinking espresso since the first grade. So screw off.
HEY ISNT THAT “MR. PREGNANT” FROM YOUTUBE?
