it should be "*may* I get", but there's absolutely nothing wrong with this use of "get".

its official definition is "come to have, or receive". that's if you have to use the word 'get' instead of 'have' of course.

some people seem to think that "get" can only ever mean "fetch for oneself". this is incorrect (see definition above).

you're going to the shop to get a coffee, you can't wait to get a coffee, hello barista, please may I get a coffee. It's an entirely accurate and appropriate usage of the word.

p.s. then when you have finished your coffee, you haven't got another f**king coffee have you because exactly like "having your f**king cake and eating it" is not possible because once you've eaten your cake or drunk your coffee then you don't f**king have either do you?

feel free to print this off ^^ and read it every morning before unleashing yourself on the public.
