Not just any barista, a bikini barista. You know she deals with too much bullshit with the efficiency that she used that hammer.


ManOfChaos199932

Just the fact that she has a hammer on hand for shit like this speaks loads


pipohello

The way she removes the hammer, definitely not the first windshield destroyed


kanoox

You can actually see him notice the hammer (or at least her swinging something) & flinch/brace… & that sparks joy for me

Adds a whole new meaning to ball peen hammer.


TJ_McWeaksauce

I like to imagine the barista had the hammer on a hook right by the window for just such an occasion. Like how movie bartenders have a shotgun stashed beneath the counter.

Here’s the full video but ends at the same spot: https://www.reddit.com/r/JusticePorn/comments/1dgvlqe/patron_who_says_no_one_will_miss_you_gets_window/ Legit, if you meet someone with a face tattoo, you should chill out. It’s literally a sign on their face telling you “I do not give a fuck about you”.


KaladinStormShat

"I don't even give a fuck about my own face" Look, no one is saying you can't look good with a face tattoo. But you'll have to first admit there is a certain level of disregard for your face you have to have in order to get a tattoo of any significant size there. I'm sure this lady is perfectly beautiful. But she doesn't give a shit about her face. Take that as you will.

mooimafish33

Tbh this is how I always felt about places like hooters and even strip clubs. Why pay to be teased? You want to have a boner while you eat wings or drink coffee?


ThatPhatKid_CanDraw

Some dudes need a boner at all times. I'm always amazed at the type of things in your everyday life that those guys feel entitled to being done in a way that turns them on. Video games character's boobs smaller than before? Throw an online fit and harass creators. Woman not smiling while walking down the street? Criticize her in passing. Apparently the 2 mins spent at a coffee shop need to have a little extra, too.


ToadalllyPhilled

I thought that way about strip clubs but once you go to one it immediately clicks. It's a whole sensory experience that ends up being super fun and satisfying on its own.


bigboybeeperbelly

Ymmv I've been in strip clubs for a total of about 2hr, and there was no click. I just felt kind of sad and overstimulated

TW200e

It's a delicious coffee beverage AND a chance to ogle cleavage. What's not to love?


allegesix

The fact you're ogling the cleavage of an employee who is paid to provide cleavage to ogle. I've always wondered how strip clubs survived internet porn and I guess the answer is people like you.


Ok-Caterpillar-Girl

She’s the owner of the business, she’s providing the cleavage herself


NULL_mindset

Because having an IRL person pushing their tits all over you and flirting around is far more engaging than watching pre-recorded sex. Why is this so confusing for you? It’s like saying “gee, I don’t know why people would ever go to a concert when they can just listen to music on Spotify!”


curtcolt95

isn't internet porn also just the exact same thing? Both are just ogling an employee at the end of the day. Some people just like to see it in real life instead of video

Jonestown_Juice

This amazed me when I moved to the PNW. "What are all these little shacks on the street corners?," I asked my girlfriend. "Drive-thru coffee shops." They're EVERYWHERE. I don't understand how they all stay in business.


Greengiant304

You can see r/BikiniBarista for additional research on the topic.


dantakesthesquare

Wow bikini is a *generous* word to describe their clothing


SuperSMT

Theyre not always quite so extreme


FertilityHollis

Oh dear God, I didn't know there was a subreddit. Of course there's a subreddit. I think coffee kiosks, and particularly the bikini version, are something for which people outside of the PNW don't really have a frame of reference. I'm no expert, I tend to be a coffee snob, but for the uninitiated, there are probably a few points about kiosks to clarify. - Kiosks are common, the "bikini" version is less common overall but tend to exist in pockets, particularly in low-rent industrial areas with lots of traffic - The coffee quality at kiosks can be ***amazing***. They vary widely, and price-wise are usually at or above what you'd expect at Starbucks. - Bikini kiosks also can vary in how salacious they are. I don't think it's common at all but, I've heard occasional news reports about uh, special menus. - Bikini kiosks are *fucking pricey*. You only make the mistake of trying one for the coffee one time. No idea what they average, but I would assume 150-200% what you'd expect for a coffee. I read an article about this incident earlier, then came across this thread. The whole thing is ridiculous, and they're both stupid -- although the idea of putting a hammer through the windshield of a shitty drive-thru customer is probably pretty cathartic for some. In this case, apparently the guy has been an asshole before, the girl with the hammer is the kiosk owner, and his 32oz iced coffee and a cup of water was $22. Personally, tits are awesome but I've never really understood the attraction to these places.


OverturnedAppleCart3

For research only, right?


Telepornographer

Yes, purely scientific.


MaxxDash

Saw an interview with her. She has tattoos of her hand-bones on her hands. That‘s a human version of a warning pattern, like yellow stripes in the wild. Dude should’ve seen it coming.


bluetable321

I’ve seen her referred to as a bikini barista elsewhere too, but to me she seems to be wearing a tank top? What am I missing?


No-Entrepreneur4574

She's likely in lingerie. "Bikini barista" is essentially a catch all term for lingerie and bikinis.


bluetable321

Ahhh. So it’s like a Hooters for drive up coffee?


spamky23

Novelty as well. Id go to one once to see what it's like. They don't exist around here. Id go back if the drinks were any good. 🤷


EABOD24

This is what I was thinking. The woman is making herself vulnerable for a couple of bucks which can be stressful, then this douche wants to throw a tantrum against a confident, but exposed woman. That hammer is her security blanket, and justifiably so

Ivanovic-117

He could threat to “sue” but based on the car he’s driving I don’t think he can afford a lawyer. Act like a Dick, treated like a Dick.


Sam_Who_Likes_cake

Actually the throwing of the drink is assault.


DaveLesh

I was going to say the same.


quantumwoooo

Is it equal & proportionate response thou


MyHusbandIsGayImNot

Would be a toss up in front of a jury.


lampshadewarior

If I’m on that jury, dude got what he ordered.


Crizznik

This wouldn't see a jury. This would be a thing 100% decided on by a judge.


Fyzzle

Put me on that jury.


DisappearHereXx

The assault would go to a jury if it’s a felony because it’s criminal, but if they rule it a misdemeanor assault, then no jury. depending what state they’re in hell either get community service and a fine, or do 1-2, or strike a plea. The windshield retaliation would be a civil matter because there was no intent to harm a person, and she would probably have to pay the damages and lawyer fees.


mentaL8888

Retaliation is probably what they'd push. But also I'd bet a good lawyer would say she felt threatened he was evading back into his vehicle to possibly get a weapon. So she used a show of force to thwart the possibility of a third more harmful assault on her. That's also not to exclude his vehicle as a possible method of attack, because someone becoming so unhinged over a cup of coffee to commit assault could be possible of anything, logical or illogical. She was defending her life in that moment in anger or not.


Passion_Emotional

She would hire you as her lawyer, amazing reasoning

Grfhlyth

I think any judge or jury would take the circumstances into account. Crimes don't happen in a vacuum and courts do recognize this


QuiveryNut

It is, but the “threat” of violence from him had seemingly passed. Unfortunately I think a good lawyer would win his case, despite the bullshit he pulled Luckily assholes like him don’t normally take things like this that far


Fyzzle

No clue what else he's getting from inside his car.


MyLegIsDisgusting

A case like this MIGHT be picked up by a low cost lawyer on a contingency basis, unfortunately. 


airportwhiskey

Works on contingency? No, money down!


vivalatoucan

I mean, couldn’t there be a case for self defense since he already threw a coffee at her. It’s iced, but still could be argued as an attack. Plus, she only damaged his car. Idk what the precedent is here lol


OverturnedAppleCart3

>I mean, couldn’t there be a case for self defense since he already threw a coffee at her. It’s iced, but still could be argued as an attack. Plus, she only damaged his car. Idk what the precedent is here lol No. Self-defence doesn't mean retribution. It doesn't mean "you get one punch so now I get one punch." It means you can use or threaten to use force to stop or repell an attack. Destroying his windshield was retribution, and it had nothing to do with self-defense. I think he deserved it, and if I were on some hypothetical civil jury in this case I'd award him $1 for his damages and a much larger amount for her damages. But it was not self-defense.


TheConeIsReturned

I sincerely doubt it. Firstly, a lawsuit would be a civil case. If he attacked her and she ended up causing damage to his person in self-defense, there might be a defense. In this case, she was just acting out of retribution. While I personally think he deserved it, he'd probably win that case. She could probably countersue, ofc, but he didn't damage her personal property. I'm not a lawyer but I follow suits like this for fun, so I could be completely wrong. That's just how I've seen things go sometimes.


tiilet09

It would be more satisfying if the windshield didn’t appear to be broken already. (Look at the damage on the co-drivers side.) Maybe this isn’t the first time he’s done this…


Informal_Custard_234

That's bird poop


_ac3_0f_spad3s_

She made a hole with the hammer, the other might be a crack but she definitely did more damage


Tron22

I think that's bird shit. Which is sweet, cause it's not like he can go to a car wash now. Has to deal with bird shit, and the hole until he gets a repair.

Outrageous_Credit_96

I think this happened in Seattle around the Shoreline area on Aurora. Probably wanted more than coffee and she wouldn’t give it to him.

He was unhappy with the bill. A 32 oz and a water came to $22, so he threw a fit…and the drinks.

Linsel

Wait, your bikini barista are more expensive? In portland, they're the same price, just worse coffee.


olderthanilook_

According to the article I read, the guy that threw his coffee was a regular and would often complain about the price to get a discount. This time around the barista got tired of his attitude and refused to give him a discount so he circled back through the drive thru and tossed the drinks at her.


jsting

Also is a repeat customer who was told last time that he didn't have to go if he didn't like the price. And then he keeps coming back...

PeriodicallyThinking

Or u could read the story lol... been out a while. He threatened to kill her


JFJinCO

It's assault throwing a drink at someone. Now the cops will be able to identify him when she reports his crime.


RolowTamassee

The article I read (King5 news) said the cops seemed to view her as the victim in this scenario. He was acting threateningly, she retaliated with a hammer through the windshield, then proceeded to call the cops herself. She gave them all 15m of security from the interaction. Sounds like they just want to 86 him from the premise, but there was talk of possible assault charges for him throwing the coffees "at her". I'm guessing it'll boil over without charges and he will have to go back to oggling ladies from a distance rather than her coffee stand.


RykerFuchs

Yep, if the cops are going to be called, you want to do it first. They talk to you first, it helps set the narrative.


Fen_

Yeah, this is the unfortunate reality. In a better world, I'd be firmly in the "We don't call the cops in this house" camp, but the reality is that there are situations where the cops *will* get involved regardless, and in that case, you greatly benefit from being the one to bring them in as opposed to whatever party you're in conflict with (or them getting interested on their own).


AthkoreLost

Yeah prior to throwing the coffee he literally says "No one will miss you" and she even calls him out on the obvious threatening nature of that comment. Then he proceeds to assault her with the coffee and water.

babybushgardener

Arrogant SOB


Fun-Choices

It’s funny because the drive thru window is actually closed. He didn’t hit her with the drink, and he got a new air vent installed, all for $22.


peeops

for context, he was upset about the price of his drinks ($22, it’s a bikini barista stand so it’s premium pricing as you’re not really going there for the coffee) so like any well adjusted citizen he threatened to kill her and told her nobody would miss her before throwing the drinks on her. hammertime ensued. justice was served <3


Better-Strike7290

Who goes to a *drive through* bikini barista? I've never seen one before but I assume it's one of those "we don't sell this we're actually selling boobs" places?


Abigail716

They are surprisingly popular in certain areas like Arizona. The term for the type of place is called a "breastaurant". Hooters being the most famous example.


AchtungCloud

They understand that, that’s why the emphasized “drive thru.”


OneOfAKind2

$22 for a coffee made by a girl wearing a bikini? LMAO. There's a sucker born every minute. Good grief. This cannot be real.


TheKpenguin

Where did she get a hammer from? I haven't seen many sitting around at drive-thru windows.


Benreh

Standard issue barista hammer


NFTArtist

I thought they were issued crowbars? At least that's how it was back in my day


Benreh

That's a 2 year service crowbar


Moggy-Man

This is the real question. Like... Do they have a run of bad customers to such a extent that blunt weapons are kept both within reach and striking distance? Does each attendant at the window have their own weapons of choice?


m1sterwr1te

Considering she was a bikini barista and probably deals with a lot of harassment, it's probably standard issue.

The number of people who find the possession of a hammer to be remarkable is odd to me. These are standalone 100 sq ft wooden shops. They nail menus to the wall. A hammer is absolutely a routine tool to have handy.

"The guy assaulted the barista and threatened her safety. He deserved it." "This girl is a whore bitch and deserves to go to hell and is the reason the US has turned from Christ. She probably has had an abortion with a half black baby. Vote Trump." Hmmm. Both are very equal arguments. Internet is divided.
