"OK, so you have one cinammon dolce latte, one triple caramel macchiato, one peppermint latte, two pieces of very-berry coffee cake, and a blueberry muffin.  Is that all?"
"'Is that all'?  'Is that all'?!?  Isn't that enough?!?  I just ordered, like, half a dozen things!  I'm spending half my paycheck on overpriced coffee and pastries!  What the hell else do you want from me?!?  What, do I have to buy the CD of Indigo Girls cover songs featuring T-Bone Burnett and Michelle Ngedocello and-and-and-and a-a-a travel mug before you people leave me alone?!?  Why don't you just slit my wrists and take my blood?!?"
"Um. .  .So, that's all?"
"Yeah, that's all, thanks."
 
The things we do for love.
