humankind hiccups 😅 Accidentally asked for no matcha in my matcha Frappuccino

Post image

Thank you, kind barista for saving me from ruining my own morning with a cup of oat milk slush (it tastes exactly like what you would expect)

Update: I called the Starbucks to say thank you for not giving me an oat milk slushy and they were very kind. They are aware of the delivery app glitches and figured that was the issue for my order. If you modify your food in delivery apps, double check everything before you place the order! Or you might end up with a bag full of disappointment.

I thought this was on “mildly infuriating” at first glance and I was trying to figure out, “is OP mildly infuriated by themselves? I mean, they’re being too hard on themselves, it’s not a big mistake, but that is quite self-aware of them to post it.”

Nope this is just mildly interesting and maximally sweet and whimsical!

Well it is kinda a big mistake they asked for a MATCHA drink without the MATCHA? What were they expecting to get?

I mean yes, a big mistake when ordering a drink- you’re totally right. 

I suppose I meant in the scope of mistakes to be made in general. That it wasn’t a big enough mistake to be calling themselves out online lol (when I misread where it was posted).Â
