Working in customer service means hearing a litany of ridiculous, capricious requests you most likely have no idea how to comply with.

Just ask the Emerald City workers when Dorothy so rudely asked "Can you even dye my eyes to match my gown?"


No. Who has that technology, Dorothy? Especially in 1939?!

One TikToker brought the wrath of the internet upon herself when she decided to make one such ridiculous request of a Starbucks' barista. After receiving her drink, she sent it back.

Why?

The drink was made properly, but the TikToker wanted the drink to match her particular shade of foundation.

Seriously.

"That was embarrassing," the audio on the video says, while the caption specifies the drink she *has* is 3 shades lighter than NC40, her foundation shade.

TikTokers were definitely embarrassed alright....but of her behavior.

Most viewers agreed Connie, the TikToker, should really get her priorities straight when complaining about her coffee orders.

Still others criticized her choice in shade of foundation, accusing her of "blackfishing," or aiming for a skin color darker than her own.

"I really hope you're embarrassed," Connie continued, while pulling out a drink a bit darker from off-frame, presumably the shade she asked the barista for.

One user pointed out the seemingly obvious:

“NC40 isn't a standard measurement tbh. Like who would know what that looks like?”

The original poster later clarified her issue was with "paying extra for changes like coconut milk because [she] can't do dairy" only for the baristas to get the order wrong and charge her repeatedly.

However that is not what she said originally.

"Girl, if it's not the right shade, you should be making your coffee at home," replied one fed up user.

The original poster has not made a follow-up video.

Florence Pugh And Josh Gad Lead Celebrity Outrage After Cornell Frat Members Assigned Essays As Punishment For Sexual Assault

The public backlash against the seven rapists and four university officials named in the suit, as well as Cornell University, the Ivy League, and fraternities as a whole has been swift. Many people have shared their own experiences with institutions of higher learning and the mishandling of sexual assaults.

Trump Hit With Blistering Factcheck After Making Patently False Claim About Prices Going 'Way Down'

President Donald Trump was swiftly fact-checked by CNN fact-checker Daniel Dale after he claimed to members of the press that "almost every price has come way down" following Joe Biden's presidency.

Earlier in the day, Trump bragged to reporters that the United States has the "best poverty," sparking immediate criticism. He continued to lie later, even as inflation remains above the level recorded when Biden left office, economic growth has slowed, and the cost of filling a gas tank has surged roughly 50% since the war against Iran began.
