When Gen Alpha orders at Starbucks and the barista 'accidentally' gets the name wrong on purpose.
My son gave the barista the name "Tralalero Tralala."
His friend came up to me and said, "Ate, look what the barista wrote!" (I was so thrilled he called me Ate instead of Tita).
Trying to keep my "cool Tita feeling Ate" vibe alive, I replied,
"Wait, let’s take a picture of it!"
