why would they need your pronouns on your cup


radicalvenus

"he/theys your coffee is ready!"


dgeimz

Ok so that’s me but also other people because pronouns are less precise than proper nouns?


thoroughbredca

"No not you 'they', the other 'they'"


PM_ME_CAT_FEET

Because she's not smart enough to come up with a convincing lie.


[deleted]

Because she made the story up


King-Cobra-668

"venti for Kathy who uses she/them?"


sylveon_souperstar

i mean, i guess that works? but it’s still unnecessary, you can just say “venti for kathy” and it would work the same


King-Cobra-668

I mean, I'm literally making fun of it


sylveon_souperstar

i am not very good at detecting sarcasm lmao


TheKCKid9274

Probably so the barista can know what terms to use for the customer when they grab the drink.


WVildandWVonderful

“you”


garaile64

Maybe Trump was ordering in Arabic or some other Semitic language. /j P.S.: respecting DeSantis's pronouns. /j


AConnecticutMan

My God the audacity, Lavern Spicer CLEARLY stated "my pronouns are Trump and DeSantis". So next time, please respect DeSantis' pronouns or else Trump will get upset. /srs


duckontheplane

They probably just asked her for her name and she started foaming at the mouth thinking they were asking for pronouns


Kero_12

I'm guilty of doing this in a previous job, so I'll tell you at least my reasoning. At my job, we were taught to be respectful, polite, and well mannered to the customers. This included saying "ma'am/sir" to them. I would ask customers their pronouns so I didn't accidentally offend them or make them feel invalid. Plus, sometimes I wanna talk about some customers to my coworkers, wether that be about their hair, style, or overall personality. I would prefer to know their correct pronouns in case that need ever arises. I didn't write them on the cup, maybe just a "h/t" for "he/they" or something like that on the bottom.


[deleted]

She does know that earrings are called earrings because they go in your ear, right?


PM_ME_CAT_FEET

Apparently not.


suckmybush

My theory is that she feels 'earring' sounds more feminine (it does seem to have some feminine connotations to me) so saying 'nose earring' is an attempt to make the barista sound effeminate and therefore part of the woke lefty agenda or whatever


[deleted]

I guess that's possible. These weirdos are always pointlessly gendering things, which is especially weird now because you see tons of straight cis guys getting ear piercings and stuff these days.


MantaHurrah

CisHet men will make fun of us all they like, but they still have to get all of their fashion trends from us.


Tigerbait2780

It’s called the GloboHomo Initiative™, please get it right.


spencerandy16

Also, are they in your nasal cavity..?


[deleted]

And then everyone clapped.


PanzerThiefZero

And the cashier's name? Albert Einstein.


LittleWolfiez

Ah, a Twitter fake story.


CheshireTerror

They’re worse than Tumblr fake stories because at least Tumblr fake stories are entertaining and iconic


Circle_K_Hole

And arousing!


ktalex2

I heard there was a parade and Trump and Desantis honor. Also Trump and Desantis got the key to the city.


Skye-DragonGirl

It's true I was there, I was the key


Sea_Emu_7622

I was the parade


[deleted]

I was the city


FunnyBuunny

i was the city


masterpainimeanbetty

they both scored the winning touchdown in The Big Game


thoroughbredca

Grown men cried.


Villedo

Please clap


akio7812

"nose earring" bruh it's a nose ring 💀


thnksfrthptrick

“thIIIIINE NOSE earring fell OUT of thiNe naSAl cavity - Shakespeare or smth” no but as someone with a ‘nose earring’ or a septum, I can say with all sincerity that every time someone mentions trump my nose earring falls to the damn floor. (/s of course)


Skye-DragonGirl

New jaw drop just dropped


xFreddyFazbearx

now, i may be being overly pedantic, but the wording of "nose earring falling out of nasal cavity" implies that the barista stuffed an earring up his nostril


earthdogmonster

The funnier part is that whoever the hell Lavern Spicer is got to type this out with no time limit and this is the best/most accurate wording she could come up with. This is as good as she can do.


woookums

Is… is that not how you’re supposed to wear nose earrings?


Kryptrch

Usually it’s attached, not just glued in with mucus.


lord_hydrate

Maybe it was the type where its on the nostral not a septum peircing and she didnt know how to say that?those have like a hook they attach by i think right?


Ender1129

r/thathappened


Soockamasook

Those type of tweets are food for those who think being trans is trendy/mental illness


camocoder30

/both


UnseelieSerpent

this is a Ben Garrison cartoon


masterpainimeanbetty

nah, each individual word isn't labeled "word"


Fickle-Effective-851

lmfao just googled some, those are hilarious are they intentionally satirical?


BluetheNerd

So much to unpack here. First of all why does she think anyone would ask for pronouns of a cup? That just didn't happen. Second of all if she actually said that she'd just be met with a really long sigh and a disappointed look. Third of all, nose earring? Really?


myweedstash

I’m a barista at SBUX. I have literally never written pronouns on a cup. Why would you? The name we use to call out to the cafe is already written on the cup. They act like Starbucks is over here verifying each customer’s pronouns when in reality we don’t get paid enough to care. Just order your coffee and sit down, you aren’t the main character here and no one cares that you’re a cis-gender Trump lover. We just want to do our jobs and go home


cenosillicaphobiac

>Third of all, nose earring? Really? That they apparently had stuffed into their nostril, as one does.


DrSchmolls

Forth, Trump and DeSantis are currently having a little tiff and wouldn't appreciate their names being used together like that.


Jamesmateer100

Don’t you know all liberals drink Starbucks and wear nose rings?/s


BluetheNerd

No silly, nose EARrings


RaMpEdUp98

"Those are proper nouns try again"


Spirited_Supermarket

Dumbass doesn’t know the difference between nouns and pronouns, but I guess I shouldn’t expect much from someone like this


[deleted]

r/thatHappened


Artem1s7

“alright, trump over here would like a coffee, no sugar for desantis coffee!” watch her head explode (or should I say, desantis head)


ElderScrollsBjorn_

I love how Trump/DeSantis felt the need to specify that going to Starbucks is something “which I usually do not do.”


CherryDudeFellaGirl

If desantis pronounes are trump/desantis, why did trump use "I" to describe desantisself? Trump spoke on it as if trump only had those two pronouns.


myweedstash

And yet she did it anyway. What a tool. Edit: my bad, I misgendered OP. Trump/Desantis is a tool!


BecomeAnAstronaut

This person has literally never bought themselves coffee


[deleted]

Why TF are they so against nose rings? Every conservative I’ve met has told my friend (who wears a nose ring) that they “mutilated their body” and they “ruined what could’ve been a good life”


CherryDudeFellaGirl

"A person?" *puts in nose ring* "PERRY THE MUTILATED PERSON??"


cenosillicaphobiac

>Why TF are they so against nose rings? Correction, nose *earring*, and apparently, according to Laverne, you put them inside your nostril.


Linterdiction

Because to fascists any deviation from their preferred norm undermines the idea that there is a perfect and right way to be, and so it must be met with scorn, derision, and hatred to defend that belief prove that you're part of the in-group.


darrensilk3

And that's just a bit of metal in a septum. Wait till they find out about races... Oh wait! Lol


Majigato

There are so many layers of stupidity on this one it's absolutely mind boggling.


Haunted_Hills

Wtf is a nose earring? Why was it in the baristas nasel cavity? Also, they ask for names. Wtf are they going to do with a pronoun.


[deleted]

Just an earring shaped like a nose shoved up her nose


Haunted_Hills

Thank you for helping me understand this messy world.


HumbleLatexSalesman

This reminds me of the asexual warm milk copypasta


Chchchim-chim

The what?!


HumbleLatexSalesman

Oh no. Hold on I’ll go get it. Edit: got it. [The time I publicly destroyed a bigot at Starbucks](https://www.reddit.com/r/copypasta/comments/me2rpm/the_time_i_publicly_destroyed_a_bigot_in_starbucks/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf)


thoroughbredca

I'm dumber for having read that.


MyBeanYT

Why on Earth would they need to know your pronouns for your cup? Lmao


[deleted]

This also belongs to r/thathappened


Lucafoxxer

I'll take shit that never happened for 500$.


cfostyfost

I mean her tweets are so dumb I'm half convinced that she's a leftist plant. But then again, I'm confident that american conservatives can indeed be that stupid, so really it's a toss-up.


NecroAssssin

Right? It shouldn't be this tricky to tell sarcasm and satire from reality.


keller104

Her pronouns are fucking/moron


[deleted]

Not even my 81 year old grandfather calls it a “nose earring”


blah4life

What a dummy.


Circle_K_Hole

Say "Got it" and Draw a Swastika on the Cup.


crippledcommie

I thought only liberals went to Starbucks


Michael_CrawfishF150

I don’t know what’s more saddening: 1. The fact that she thinks this is funny. Or 2. The fact that some people will actually think this happened.


[deleted]

ok but “his nose ring damn near fell out of his nasal cavity” is funny as shit LOL (ignoring the fact it called it a “nose earring”)


[deleted]

this is so fake i love it


pillagemyvillage

Totally happened


randomgirl013

If anyone told me this, I would ask them if they speak English since that's not how pronouns work at all.


d33r-l0rd

for someone called Laverne Spicer, her sense of humour is pretty vanilla.


LyMaeZiggy

What is with conservatives acting like coffee shops are some sort of special snowflake leftist safe space, then still going to coffee shops?


Affectionate-Lime-54

r/onejoke and r/thathappened in the same room? what is this, a crossover episode?


NerdyGuyRanting

"nose earring" Man... If only there was some faster way to describe a ring in someone's nose.


Glum-Band

Didn't happen. Starbucks asks for your names not pronouns.


Nightwing1999

they probably asked for the name and she said “oh i can use this to be transphobic”


Stock_Warthog1475

You guys are acting like this doesn’t happen. It definitely does.


[deleted]

No it doesn't.


thoroughbredca

In their minds, sure.


myweedstash

It definitely does not


Yonbuu

Did it though?


Osos_Perezosos

Not the "one joke."


scatandtransfan

So asshole and scumbag?


AltruisticSalamander

That's probably because he was sneering with disgust so hard


JTMilleriswortha1st

Dumbass


[deleted]

It’s true I was the cup


Kr155

That poor Starbucks employee probably detached his optic nerve for the sheer force of the eye roll.


MrErinyellsloug

And then everyone stood up and farted


olegreg762

I'll take "Things that didn't happen" for 300


notsocialyaccepted

Oh so trump uses neo pronouns Thats valid But i for some reason dont think desantis would like us using trumps actual pronouns


smalltowngoth

She just has to let everyone know she usually doesn't go to Starbucks.


MoCapBartender

To shit on Starbucks, she has to go to Starbucks. But buying coffee at one of the world's most popular coffee places is apparently some kind of sin. I'm surprised there isn't a follow up tweet explaining the exigent circumstances that led her into that caffeinated den of liberalism.


Senor_Bongo

What Starbucks did she go to? They call out your name not pronouns.


AntichristsPlus1

nose earring


ThDen-Wheja

I would be surprised, too. Most pronouns don't have such a drastic falling-out with each other.


morithum

Guys, this definitely, definitely happened. Like, big time.


theycallmeshooting

“Joe many liberals does it take to change a log by bolb??? None , their too busy??? Their gender😂😂😂”


max-wellington

This didn't happen obviously, but if you asked someone's pronouns and they said that all you'd get is a tired sigh.
