venti-sized vent

as much as i love going to intelligentsia to "read" (by which i mean gaze at all the pretty people), my inner coffee snob is resisting. their coffee tastes like swill. i think it's mostly due to the readily apparent fact that the baristas are chosen more for their eye-candy qualities than for their ability to do things like follow directions or think. my other growing gripe with initelligentsia is their ridiculous coffee sizing scheme. i mean really, what's so bad about small, medium, and large? in any case, if you want an iced-coffee there, you can only have a large or an extra large, and i think that's just dumb.
