"Stop being such a barrista, and leave the poor man alone!" demanded Irene. "He can hardly even speak English".
"I ordered a semi skimmed latte, not full fat, you idiot!" bellowed Anton as he towered over the quaking form, then turning to Irene "Who are you calling a barrista anyway? I earn more in a day than this fool does in a month"

The Soul Called Mr. Barrister John Warosa

A folk song whose lyrics were written by a 419 scammer whose command of English sucks. Here are the lyrics BTW:

My friend listen to me I don't know what you are doing Infact I have giving you the lawyer who you suppose to contact And I don't really know the reason why you are bringing the issue of the soul called Mr Barrister John Warosa I don't understand your plan here But I have told you to contact Barrister Mohammad Hassan, he is here in UAE He is the only person who will handle this business and without him That means there is no way And I just finished my meeting with him About 2 hours ago, so he is the person And even I can meet with him again Tomorrow morning in his office and I beg you If you really want this business to move forward Just forget any issue or discussion with the soul Called Mr Barrister John Warosa I beg you, I don't want you to discus with me anything about The soul called Mr Barrister John Warosa I beg, don't tell me about him again It's only Barrister Mohammad Hassan That the person who I speak with about this business And no other soul called Barrister and I beg Do not tell me anything about the soul called Mr Barrister John Warosa.

Somehow, Eric Castiglia, the guy who wrote and sang the song, managed to make it sound better than one could ever imagine possible.
Frankly, I'd be surprised if you know "The Soul Called Mr. Barrister John Warosa" without watching Atomic Shrimp's scambating John Warosa episodes. Search it on YT if you don't know. If you can't do that, then clearly you're a small boy.

baristarist 

Well know affliction of a Barista's wrist who still use the old fashion coffee/espresso machines due to the repeated motion of twisting the filter handle on and off on the group heads. The pain is similar to carpal tunnel but does dissapeat after a while. Prevalent in newbee Baristas in training. Was alleviated a bit with the invention of the right angled version and now eliminated with the arrival of fully electronic espresso machines.
Why the wrist brace?
Dude crazy morning, been making double shots like nobody's biz and my wrist is on fire. I gotta touch of baristarist!

More from Urban Dictionary
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
