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.

Dem Rep. Offers Brutally Accurate Reason For Why He Can't Understand 'The Mind Of Donald Trump'

Massachusetts Democratic Representative Seth Moulton made a fitting observation about President Donald Trump's mind after Trump gave a 20-minute address to the nation about his war in Iran on Wednesday evening.

Trump claimed “core strategic objectives are nearing completion” in the Iran war and vowed to strike Iran "extremely hard" over the next two to three weeks. He said that he would finish the job "very fast," without setting any timeline for ending the war. He pledged to "bring them [Iranians] back to the Stone Ages, where they belong.”

With the United States set to host the 2026 World Cup, a video out of Dallas Fort Worth International Airport is drawing attention for a very different reason: showing a man ripping apart an Iraqi soccer fan’s banner and telling them, “Don’t come to America.”

The video, posted on Instagram, shows a group of Iraqi sports fans standing in an airport holding a banner with Arabic and Spanish writing. The fans were there to support Iraq during their World Cup qualifier against Bolivia, which resulted in a 2-1 upset victory earlier that day.

Videos Of Squirrels Trying To 'Vape' Are Going Viral—And We Don't Know Whether To Laugh Or Cry

Some viral videos come along that leave us unsure whether we should laugh or cry. In the case of squirrels trying to vape, crying is unfortunately the more likely outcome.

E-cigarettes have dramatically increased in popularity in recent years and are often even portrayed as a cool accessory on social media. Unfortunately, disposable, one-time-use e-cigarettes have been made affordable and easily accessible, and instead of properly disposing of them, people often leave them on the ground like cigarette butts.
