This is not a f***ing drill😳 I asked if she wanted to make the LCS an even 20 pumps, and she said,”That would be too much”. (i.redd.it)

“Vanesa don’t you want another S for your name so it doesn’t look weird?”

“That would be too much.”

I would’ve put 20 out of spite
darkwolf523 71 points 2y ago
Knowing my ass I would do it on accident and then Think about it
goomy-toons -27 points 2y ago
Curious why you capitalized the word Think
gjroberts93 22 points 2y ago
You know, Think.
darkwolf523 2 points 2y ago
Because my autocorrect is not wants to correct words at the wrong time.
goomy-toons 1 points 2y ago
I’m sorry I was just hoping for a playful answer, I didn’t want to be downvoted to oblivion
pastabreadpasta 1 points 2y ago
Curious as to why you decided to do the Same
MatchingColors 48 points 2y ago
Oh perfect just splash some passion tea in a bottle of classic and you’re set!
Important-Sir-321 [OP] 6 points 2y ago
Lmaooo for real-I should've 😂
Vosstonmass1 37 points 2y ago
I drink black tea and I don’t like the liquid cane sugar so I use classic. I also like sweet tea and I used to get 10 pumps of classic and that was pushing the limits of too sweet and I grew up in the south where sweet tea is definitely sweet. This amount of sugar is ludicrous. That had to be almost half the cup of just sugar syrup?!?!
MonstrousGiggling 32 points 2y ago
Also lemme add

1 pump of classic syrup is about 5 grams of sugar i believe. I think LCS is the same but let's just say 3 grams because I'm a bit unsure.

200grams sugar from classic.
57grams of lcs.
257 grams of sugar!!!

Sounds like a Utah “mixed drink”

$1
submitizenkane 36 points 2y ago
Ah, so is this how the Mormons get high?
Assiqtaq 3 points 2y ago
I want to know more about the drink at the top one "By Common Consent". I have heard some wild creative names for drinks, but that one made me giggle.
hobskhan 24 points 2y ago
Someone needs to inform MiB that we've got a Bug.
Important-Sir-321 [OP] 15 points 2y ago
LMAO. If they could also bring their memory-erase tool, that'd be helpful because I'd very much like to forget this 😂

If Vanesa wasn’t diabetic before drinking this, she is now.
Important-Sir-321 [OP] 14 points 2y ago
She also told me that she gets this at her home Starbucks twice a week...
celestineleh 15 points 2y ago
i once had a customer ask for an eggnog latte with 5 pumps of classic syrup and 2 pumps of lcs. the eggnog latte is already so sickeningly sweet, i cant imagine how it wouldve tasted. but this monstrosity had to taste like hummingbird nectar with 19 extra pumps of lcs 😭😭
whiteboimatt02 10 points 2y ago
At a point can we just consider this theft?
flogonz 14 points 2y ago
Lifespan theft you mean? I feel like the physiological impact of this is more concerning than the financial impact on the store...
sherlock----75 10 points 2y ago
That’s just 59 pumps of sugar, right?? How is that even possible? And yes hello diabetes
Important-Sir-321 [OP] 8 points 2y ago
Yup! The syrup went all the way to the divet in the cup above the second black line. Maybe 2 oz of Passion Tango.
sherlock----75 9 points 2y ago
Omg ewww. Can you say no? I’m not a barista but I feel like you should be able to say no at some of these requests
Important-Sir-321 [OP] 8 points 2y ago
I tried to reason with her about it, but she was adamant that that was how she wanted it soo... Diabetus in a cup comin' up.
sir_ramen 9 points 2y ago
Vanesa is going to fucking die lol.
nightkat89 9 points 2y ago
...I threw up a little
ButterSock123 4 points 2y ago
Right. I'm horrible about my sugar intake but that made my teeth hurt.
Sunnysunflowers1112 9 points 2y ago
What’s the difference between classic and liquid cane sugar?
NothingToSeeFolks 15 points 2y ago
Classic is basically liquid white sugar, while liquid cane is liquid turbinado cane sugar (or liquid sugar in the raw).
Sunnysunflowers1112 3 points 2y ago
Thank you.

Wat?
Thaklife 7 points 2y ago
At this point it’s sugar rush, every sip
TheRedditTeacher 5 points 2y ago
Does she use this as syrup at home? To make lemonade or something?
Important-Sir-321 [OP] 5 points 2y ago
>Reply

Probably not bc she started sipping once she got it😩
TheRedditTeacher 1 points 2y ago
In that case : 'Ewwwww omg that's discusting!'
Digitalwitness23 5 points 2y ago
She was offered a 1.7% increase in overall pumps and countered with “that would be too much”
OriginalJokeGoesHere 6 points 2y ago
I bet she works for corporate. A 1.7% increase in overall pay? That would be too much.
dausy 5 points 2y ago
So did you have to poor in the sugar first to make sure it didnt overfill the glass?
isglitteracolor 4 points 2y ago
Reminds me of 37 and a half Splenda lady, because 38 would be too sweet 🙄
TheIndefiniteHiatus 4 points 2y ago
Do you guys charge per-pump?or is this all free add-ons?
Important-Sir-321 [OP] 4 points 2y ago
The initial pump of each syrup is usually 50 cents, but after that, it doesn't charge.
ButterSock123 -8 points 2y ago
I work at Mcdonalds and it's 30 cents for every two pumps of extra syrup. Idk about Starbucks, though.
olddertybasterd 3 points 2y ago
"Excuse me ma'am, would you like some tea with your sugar?"
Over_the_Void 3 points 2y ago
I mean, might as well have supplied her with insulin while your at
lilBalzac 3 points 2y ago
Nah she’s right. 20 is just too much.
kreborn17 3 points 2y ago
Oh no
Drewswife0302 3 points 2y ago
That’s not a cheap cup of diabetes
nicathor 1 points 2y ago
If I remember right, Liquid Cane sugar is, well, just liquid cane syrup. Classic is a simple syrup, so sugar crystals mixed with water and heated
britniah 2 points 2y ago
Where did the syrup fill to on the cup? 😵🤢
Important-Sir-321 [OP] 3 points 2y ago
Up to the divet above the second black line...
britniah 2 points 2y ago
Sorry I saw your comment on it right after I posted.
That's insane, yeesh.
Important-Sir-321 [OP] 2 points 2y ago
You're good!! :)
dandelionfloof 2 points 2y ago
Thanks, I threw up in my mouth a little 🙃
Rukeriusu 2 points 2y ago
I am kind of skeptical on how a 40 pump of syrup can fit in a trenta cup along with 19 pumps of liquid cane sugar syrup while also having the passion tango stuff in.
Important-Sir-321 [OP] 1 points 2y ago
Oh, it's possible. The sugar went up to the divet above the 2nd black line on the cup, and I put a splash of tea topped with ice.
stratamaniac 2 points 2y ago
How many calories per plump?
[deleted] 4 points 2y ago
Per plump 🤣
Important-Sir-321 [OP] 3 points 2y ago
>Another commentor estimated 257 grams of sugar which is about 1000 calories in sugar alone.
ButterSock123 1 points 2y ago
a fuck ton.
Lightning_fanguy 1 points 1y ago
At what point do we say no?
impasse602 1 points 2y ago
Someone wants to be pre diabetic today
Starryeyedgirl09 1 points 2y ago
Serious question: is Vanesa a hummingbird?
Gingerpunchurface 1 points 2y ago
I could not ever work at Starbucks. There's no way I'd be able to stop my self from asking if these people are retarded. I'd be fired & it would be worth it.
kat833 1 points 2y ago
Did that even fit in the cup? Was it like 75% s syrup?
eightezsteps 1 points 2y ago
Hi guys, I stumbled upon this sub, not a partner but many friends are. This is some crazy shit, can’t believe people put this much sugar in something. I assume it’s frowned upon to simply tell them that’s too much lol
bryceofswadia 1 points 2y ago
I would have just grabbed a bottle of LCS, emptied a bit out, put a splash of passion tea in it, and say “Here you go”.
lindenaaron1 1 points 2y ago
At one point in time she had 20 pumps and thought, "this is too much, back down to 19"
Butterflybo0ty 1 points 2y ago
This must have made them so sick.... or they were just using it to mix with other teas wtf
RebekahR84 1 points 2y ago

GWFESPN1992 1 points 2y ago
I'll have one Trenta diabetes please
FelicityCecilia 1 points 2y ago
Yeah... no. She’ll get 30 pumps total, and like it. At least if I was making the drink. Not getting paid enough to give people diabetes.
misodeadinside 1 points 2y ago
So they wanted a bottle of classic with a passion tango tea on the side? Alright..
SilkyOatmeal 1 points 2y ago
Gag.
fakepunk22 1 points 2y ago
What’s the difference between classic and liquid cane? I’m the manager at a BN cafe and we only have classic
ButterSock123 1 points 2y ago
Bro. Your doctor must hate you.
SadWolverine24 0 points 2y ago
You could buy a drink like this with a very high concentration of syrup/sugar/flavor. Then you could dilute it into ten drinks... ten for the price of one.
mamajeri 1 points 1y ago
This is what I thought, but apparently OP said she sipped it right after
