Starbucks Has Yet Another Word For "Large"

A whole new way to annoy coffee drinkers.

We wonder how many times some form of this conversation has taken place in a Starbucks:

Sleepy Morning Customer: I'd like a coffee please.

Snotty Morning Barista: What size?

SMC: Large.

SMB: We don't have large.

SMC: [blink] What?

SMB: We don't have large.

SMC: Do you have small?

SMB: No.

SMC: You don't have small. Okay. Do you have different sizes?

SMB: Yes.

SMC: Is one of them larger than the other?

SMB: We have three sizes.

SMC: [pinches area between eyes] Okay. One of them is larger than the other two, I'm guessing.
SMB: [pause: has to think] Uh, yeah.

SMC: I'll have that one.

SMB: Which one?

SMC: Oh dear lord…

We can now add a fourth size to Tall, Grande, and Venti: Trenta. (Thankfully, word on the street is you can just ask for the "Bucket o' Coffee.")
