you should insist on only speaking italian at starbucks, and act confused when they don’t understand you, becuause they’re clearly speaking italian to you!

guy with ADHD walks in, forgets why he entered, remembers when he sees the coffee, chugs 3 caraffes and calmly asks what’s up with all the coffee

they have non-curse words?

learn to code and you’ll forever more be going “i could probably fix this if i could be fucked to get familiar with the codebase”
