Has it happened to you? You put in your order at Starbucks, give them your name and get back a cup with something scrawled across it that isn’t even vaguely close?
There’s a Tumblr for that.
Starbucks Spelling wants you to take a shot of the most outrageous misspellings of your name on a Starbucks cup and send it in. The photo collection includes such gems as “Siser” for “Ceasar,” and “Hellesy” for Hillary, among many other phonetic delights. Thankfully, there are no cups with “race together” posted here.
And, yes, serving coffee quickly to the masses doesn’t require complete accuracy, but hey, there’s no harm in asking someone to spell their name is there?
