the third cup is really the best one

i recently went to posh breakfast at the Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau (a banking group which "supports change and promotes promising ideas.") it was basically a "who's who" of the berlin international development circle (and me).

there i had the pleasure of meeting one of the most arrogant men i'll (hopefully) ever meet. i sat down at the table, and accidentally bumped it. this meant that his coffee spilled onto the side of his cup and onto his saucer. he kind of glared at me (...) and then ordered and entirely new cup from the waiter.

then a guy came and sat down next to me, and HE bumped the table as well. meaning that this guy's coffee again spilled onto the side of his cup and on his saucer. meaning that he glared at the second guy, and ordered ANOTHER entirely new cup from the waiter.

*shakes head sadly* some people...
