Firm

What's happening with the English language? My running partner and I talked about how so many people seem to not even know basic words like flamboyant. Today I was at Starbucks when a lady asked the guy behind the counter if the pastry she wanted was hard. He said it was firm. She said she didn't understand and he said that it was a little hard. She didn't know the word firm. Are you kidding me?
