Definitely don't ask for it in Spanish!

for the rest of the world normal is espresso and the thing with drip or wtv doesn't even exist.

Hey, you know that it was just a joke, right?

In latin america we say "Mi negro, mi flaco, mi gordo, mi pelado" ("My black, my skinny, my fatty, my baldie") and could not care less. Sometimes even to strangers.

My first time in Spain I asked for café negro and was corrected to say con leche. Not in a 'that's racist' kind of way, but in a 'that is inaccurate, even though we understand' way.

Nah, it’s not just murica. Here in Germany for example, if you order a cup of coffee you usually get filter coffee. If you want espresso, you have to order espresso.

That’s an inherent flaw of the classic US percolators, where the coffee drips back down into the boiling water. It’s near impossible to not burn st least some of the coffee. Even basic filter coffee is usually better.

Wow, I was way off. ️ I guessed "my flaccid black penis is named Gordo".

"Café negro" (which I've never heard for black coffee) would be "Café solo" or "Café sin leche" (literally, "coffee by itself", or "coffee without milk"). "Café con leche" would be coffee with milk, which definitely is not black coffee.

I think that's regional, maybe to east coast US? Anywhere else I've been in the US "regular coffee" referred to black coffee.

Ok I remembered wrong. It must have been sin leche that they corrected me with. It was a long time ago and I haven't spoke any Spanish since!

That's not true in most of northern or eastern europe, and arab coffee drinkers traditionally use neither.

But Starbucks coffee is also burned, but more because the beans are roasted too hard (which makes sense if you're going to pour one espresso into a pint of milk, but it sucks if you drink it without milk).

The coffee isn't burned (at least if you order espresso), the beans are, but the beans at the place using the percolator is also using cheap, burnt beans AND burning the coffee with a percolator
Neither is close to ideal coffee, but for me one is far worse

Now go look in that box of Crayola for the one that's gonna trigger the SJWs to fight against a language because some hillbillies used a word as a slur and now live rent-free in everyone's heads.
