Here’s my “black coffee” this morning.
Double infuriating: everytime I tell people that “baristas” and coffee people can’t comprehend the concept of black coffee, I get back talk. Here’s the first coffee I’ve ordered in 10 years because of this persistent problem, guess what, they lived up to the complaint… they can’t formulate the concept of black coffee in their own mind.


My only annoyance is that a lot of places either add sugar by default or use sweetened soy/almond milk (why the fuck is sweet the default?). I’m very flexible on milk in my coffee but cannot stand any sugar in it.
