Dunkin Donuts customer loses her mind over receipt

This woman needs some help.

And this is the dark side of what social media allows.

Apparently, the woman who recorded this drove through the Dunkin Donuts the night before and didn’t receive a reciept. As the posted policy at DD stands, you can request your order be free if no receipt of offered.

This woman clearly turned into a hot cup of crazy and rants for 8 minutes on this video demanding her order and announcing to anyone who listens that “this is going on Facebook.”

I want to note that the woman goes racist in the middle of the rant when she sees her server from the day before.  She goes into a personal attack and uses the “N” word, making the screed even that more repugnant.

Personally, I think the employees here act like heroes. I hope once her order was delivered they ban her from the establishment for being disruptive. The employee serving her handles the situation very well.

This truly goes under the heading “How NOT to treat anyone anywhere.”

Here are just a few of her statements she makes while ranting at the counter.  
Warning – language NSFW:

1. ”I want the whole f*****g menu, bitch, TWICE.”

2. “A guarantee is a guarantee — I’ve already called my lawyer and he’s already on it… Because when it says if you don’t get a receipt, you get your order free, it f****n’ means it, right? Or is it a lie? Because this is all being f****ng recorded.”

3. After being told she could order exactly what she had yesterday and get it for free: ”Okay, I want a strawberry Coolata.” Worker: “Did you have a strawberry Cooolata yesterday?” Customer: “No. There were a bunch of us in the car yesterday. If I get exactly what I ordered yesterday it’s gonna be a s**t ton more.”

4. “Hi, Facebook, this is what you have to do in life, it f****n’ sucks, blow my brains out.”

5. “I’ve literally thought this was the best one in the city and I gave you guys like so many good remarks online because I have a business degree.”

6. “I’m going tomorrow and I’m going to nuke this place up. I’ve already posted this on Facebook too… And I’m going to take off and watch this place explode… How do you feel about that?” [Random guy in line responds]: “It’s your own issue, I have my own issues.”

7. Regarding the order being free guarantee: ”S**t pissed me off like that. Just wanted my order. I just want my bacon to be crispy and my people to be nice…. There are no takebacks in life.”

8. “I’m from Indiana and Kentucky and up there this s**t doesn’t happen… I’m going to Mars where I don’t have to deal with it. It’s a one-way flight.”

9. Regarding her new order being prepared, and her certainty that it’s going to be nasty: ”Even if they hock a loogie and s**t in it, I don’t even care…. One time they pissed in my fries right in front of my mouth. Literally, I could smell the piss in it…. That’s why I’m not eating this food and I’m giving it to my boyfriend.”

GLEE’s Jane Lynch to divorce

According to People Magazine, Jane Lynch is divorcing her wife Lara Embry: People magazine reports:

“Lara and I have decided to end our marriage. This has been a difficult decision for us as we care very deeply about one another. We ask for privacy as we deal with this family matter,” Lynch says in a statement.

Lynch, 52, and Embry, 44, met at a 2009 fundraiser in San Francisco at which Embry was being honored. Shortly after confirming their engagement, the women married on Memorial Day in 2010 in an intimate ceremony in Sunderland, Mass., one of the few states where gay marriage is recognized.

Air Force Major General now the highest ranking openly gay officer in US military

Air Force Major General Patricia Rose is now the highest ranking openly gay officer in the military after she was promoted May 31.

From OutServe-SLDN:

Rose’s promotion ceremony was held on May 31, led by her direct supervisor, General Janet Wolfenbarger, the first female four-star general in the United States Air Force. With a small crowd in attendance, Rose’s wife pinned her second star.

Rose is the Mobilization Assistant to the Commander, Air Force Materiel Command, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio. A logistician, she’s served assignments in both aircraft maintenance and transportation in seven different commands. Her reserve assignments include command of the 36th Aerial Port Squadron at McChord AFB, Washington, where her squadron won the dual distinction of being selected for an Air Force Outstanding Unit Award and Air Mobility Command’s Total Force Air Reserve Component Aerial Port Unit of the Year.

Rose and Roth were legally married in their home state of Washington after marriage equality became legal in the state last year. When Rose earned her first star, she asked her friend and neighbor, Colonel Grethe Cammermeyer, to pin it in a private promotion ceremony. Cammermeyer, a fellow Washingtonian, was ejected from the Washington National Guard for admitting she was gay and became a prominent advocate for the repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.” Her story was told in the film “Serving in Silence.”

In her civilian capacity, Rose is the public relations and marketing director for a local hospital.

California: Marriage equality shows strong support 58% vs 36%

A new Los Angeles Times poll shows a 22% spread between supporters and opponents of marriage equality in California:

The poll found that 58% of the state’s registered voters believe same-sex marriage should be legal, compared with 36% against, a margin of 22 points. When the same pollsters asked that question three years ago, 52% favored gay marriage and 40% opposed it, a 12-point spread.

Most national polls this year have found majority support, but only one of those surveys reported it as high as 58%. The average was roughly 51% in favor of gay marriage. As in the rest of the country, more women (63%) than men (52%) in California favor same-sex marriage.

Younger California voters also support gay marriage by larger margins than older voters, the poll found. Whereas 76% of voters ages 18 to 29 support legalizing the unions, only 52% of those ages 50 to 64 agree.
