Really, there is nothing not funny about this coffee slapfight in DC:
Certainly not Jeff Simmermon, whose request for a triple shot of
espresso over ice at Murky Coffee in Arlington has turned into a heated
Internet squabble, sparked intense debate on whether the customer is
indeed always right and provided yet another reminder of the intended
and unintended consequences of blog posts.
The drink request Sunday, says the 32-year-old Brooklyn resident,
was denied by a barista who told him Murky doesn't do espresso over
ice. Irked, Simmermon then asked for a triple espresso and a cup of
ice, which he says the barista provided grudg . . . ing. . . . ly.
Service. No smile.
And then it gets even better from there, with expletives on both sides, blog postings, physical threats and so and so forth.
