As A User I Want To...

User Stories, especially if used in a very formal way, are much criticized by my colleagues. One point is that the user (in any role) most probably does not want to use your system but just to get it over with. So, whenever someone says "As a (role) I want to" it has become somewhat of a meme to say:


As a user I want to drink piƱa colada in a swimming pool

I assumed that this was true but I wanted to be sure and made some empirical studies and it in fact is so.
