      There was a free speech fight in the courts about the right for women two wear swimsuits, many of them bikinis, while serving coffee in the Seattle area. Since then the popularized alliterative term ‘bikini barista’ has stuck to refer to all servers that sell hot drinks while in swimwear.

        What did she accomplish by escalating the situation? Other than making your caveman brain go “hehe”

          She sent a very clear message to the customer that his shitty, entitled, and borderline threatening behavior will not be tolerated. Seems to me like she made the world a slightly better place.

              I don’t answer straw men.

              EDIT: Sorry…I mistook this thread for another. What I wasn’t responding to was an ad hominem.

                Lmfao not a straw man in sight in my comment. Do you know what a straw man is? I asked a simple question to expand on your position, and you dodged and mocked me (in three separate comments) because I guess you had a bad day. Eat a dick.

                  No…you’re right…it wasn’t a straw man. I mistook this for another thread.

                  I don’t respond to ad hominems.

                  Better?
