Alec Baldwin is not a man known for his cool temper, which makes it only slightly surprising that he went on a Twitter rant on Wednesday. The weird twist? It was directed at a possibly non-existent Starbucks employee. "Starbucks on 93 and B’way. Uptight Queen barrista [sic] named JAY has an attitude problem," he tweeted. Except, uhh, the manager of that location tells the New York Post there is no such employee. "Maybe he means Giovan," volunteers one worker.

Then Baldwin kept the local updates coming, tweeting, "Clyde, on the other hand, outside DINOSAUR BARBECUE @ W 125 n H River is MY MAN. Keeping the hickory ovens going, he is 2dayz Coolest NYer." (In other Baldwin tweet news: Trending WORLDWIDE!!! Not my balls.)
