This morning at Starbucks, the man behind me in line asked what my tattoo says.
I told him, "Hosanna."
His response: "Oh, so it's going to come off?"
I said, "No, it's real. It's on there."
Then the guy behind the counter said, "Hosanna...what does that mean? We say that in church."
So I explained it to them.
The Starbucks employee nodded and the man behind me said, "Oh. I'll have a large coffee."
Clearly this man knows nothing about tattoos, Hebrew, etiquette, or ordering at Starbucks.

I guess "Hosanna" kinda sounds like "Henna"...to most adult men for sure.
And, I ALWAYS order coffee that way at Starbucks ("I'll have a large coffee")
It makes me feel rebellious! :)
dont you just love starbucks?
Haha the crazy things that happen at Starbucks.
clearly.
At least he's asking questions, which is more than you can expect from most of the ignorant of the world.
BTW, henna is a part of the heritage and culture of a lot of people too, and it is "real" just not permanent.
