    I think you missed the point.

    If you never tried cafe au lait, cappuccino and others, you’d never know if you liked them or not and wouldn’t seek them out or bother to experiment with the other drinks.

    Has nothing to do with being snooty, and has everything to do with sticking to the things you know and tried as opposed to going out of your way to try and discover new things.

    Point is some people never go out and explore new flavours at the risk of not liking something.

    Means you had (likely) cruddy coffee that was normalized for you since a young age, probably with loads of sugar and or milk/cream to boot.

    Just the normal cycle for most people tbh.

    The comfort of the known combined with an underdeveloped palette is what makes it attractive to a lot of people

    It often changes and evolves with time as you grow older, kind of like when you try foods that you hated as a kid only to discover they’re really good.

    Granted that only happens if you explore and experiment, otherwise you never really grow out of it




  • The programming team that is working hard on your project is just one dude and he smells funny. The programming team you’ve met in your introductory meeting are just the two unpaid interns that will be fired or will quit within the next two months and don’t know what’s happening. We don’t do agile despite advertising it. Also your project being a priority means it’ll be slapped together from start to finish 24 hours prior to the deadline. Oh and there will be extra charges to fix anything that doesn’t work as it should.
