Coffee shops

Dear Coffee shops,

Please use cup size terminology that follows the general human convention, and not some type of lofty imported-feeling labels. The smallest cup shall be known as 'small' and the largest cup shall be known as 'large'. The cup which holds a volume of liquid greater than that held by the 'small' yet less than that held by the 'large' shall be named 'medium'. If in the event there are four cup sizes and the largest cup will not fit in one's car cup holder, it shall be called 'extra large'.

This is not difficult stuff.

P.S. While I have you, can we stop calling coffee cutesy names like 'winter cabin' or 'delightful fancy bean'? If 'coffee' is not specific enough of a request, let's use 'dark' or 'light', okay?
