    It’s 12, 16, and 20.

    Only non-witches get due process.

      Venti is Italian for 20.

      One time I ordered a grande coffee and the woman replied ‘Venti?’ I said ‘No, sedici’. Nobody laughed but me.

                When the cashier asked for my name for the order, I told her “Spartacus”. When the barista brought the order up and hollered “Spartacus!” I stepped up and said “I am Spartacus” then another older guy stepped forward and said “I am Spartacus”… Then another guy, and another… Those poor androgynous twentysomethings were so confused.

                      @George-K Afraid not, in fact, I think I saw the original anecdote on TNCR…I tried it once to no good effect.

                          It’s actually from a video that went viral a decade ago or so.

                          George- find the video and post that.

                            But I’m pretty sure that they just copied an internet story / meme that was around earlier than that. Like I said, I did it once as a joke that went nowhere, and it would have likely been before 2013, and I remember being inspired to try it from something on the forum.
