I went into one of these "designer" coffee shops while traveling on business a few years ago and asked for a coffee. The guy behind the counter asks what kind, I said "a coffee, all I want is a coffee". He looks at me like I have 3 eyes and then starts rattling off this list of coffees, none of which I understood. I stopped him and said again "all I want is a coffee". He fianlly gave me their house blend or something else simple.
I cannot understand how some people can get all excited about coffee. Now, beer is a different story.
