Barista: Welcome to Spiritual Starbucks, may I take your order?
Customer 1: Yes, I'd like a triple Buddha, Mocha Mohammed Latte, with an extra shot of religion.
Barista: Sure, would you like a Pious Pastry with that?
Customer 1: No, I just ate. Just the drink.
Barista: Great, that will be your eternal destiny.
Customer 1: Is that all?
Barista: Yeah, we're running a special. And you get your destiny extra hot... hot as Hell actually. Customer 1: Awesome. (Moves over to wait)
Barista: Welcome to Spiritual Starbucks. How may I help you?
Customer 2:Yes, um, this is my first time here... so I don't quite know what to order. Barista:Well, we're glad to have you sir. Would you like a cold drink, like a Frappacino, or something hot like a latte?
Customer 2: I guess something cold.
Barista: Great, a Frappacino. What kind of Frap would you like?
Customer 2:What kind do you have?
Barista: Well, we have your Mohammed, Mocha, Wildberry Wiccan--
Barista 2: Caramel Cult Frappacino, Quasi Jesus Frap--
Customer 2:Why only a Quasi Jesus?
Barista: Nobody wants him full strength anymore, sir.
Customer 2: Umm, well, how about a Morman Frappacino? I've heard those are good.
Barista: Yeah, sure we have that--but it only comes in decaf.
Customer 2:Umm.... Ok, I'll have a Wildberry Wiccan, with a shot of Caramel Cult.
Barista: Is that all?
Customer 2: Yes. Barista: Ok, let's just ring this up here... That will be your soul.
Customer 2: Great! Didn't have a need for it anyway! (Moves aside to wait)
Customer 3: Yes, I'd like to order a Venti Full Strength Jesus, please.
Barista: Sorry sir, but we don't serve those here. We have a Quasi Jesus, with a shot of something else to spice it up.
Customer 3: No I just want a straight Jesus please... Extra hot.
Barista 2: Sir, do you know why we don't serve Venti Full Strength Jesus here?
Customer 3: No, why?
Barista: Because those who ordered it never wanted anything else. Ever. As a matter of fact, once they ordered it, they never were thirsty again. Which means they didn't order again. Which means business went down. As a matter of fact, they started pestering the other customers to get it. Those who liked the Full Strength Jesus Lattes think it is the way, the truth, the life, and the drink that will quench their thirst for all time.
Customer 3: Well, that's how I want him. Straight and full strength.
Barista: Well, then you came to the wrong place! Next!
From: Venti Jesus Please.
