Rudd: 'I get into rows at coffee shops'

Actor Paul Rudd has admitted that he is easily annoyed and often rows with staff in coffee shops.

The 39-year-old, who has appeared in Friends and Anchorman, said: "I've actually in my own life gotten in arguments in coffee places because I refuse to use their sizing system.

"I just ask for a large black coffee and if somebody with the attitude behind the counter says 'You mean Venti?' I will snap and go 'No I mean large you moron from not Italy!'"

Rudd, who co-wrote and stars in this week's comedy Role Models, claimed that he has a lot in common with the miserable character he plays in the movie.

"It is kind of what I'm like in some ways," he said. "I don't think I'm as misanthropic as the character that I'm playing. But a lot of his gripes are my own gripes, I might have played them up a little bit for comedy's sake. But it's not that far off."
