Starbucks Doesn't Suck

[lordblazer]

"Conversation starters" is not a novel concept.

Still though..Starbucks sucks and it doesn't bring up the quality of it. I get my coffee from a local place which is a lot better because the quality is high and the prices are reasonable. And the employees are nice.


This oen time I was in Atlanta underground at a starbucks. Anyway getting adrink.

Isaid can I get a large Frappcino. They said.. "Whats "large"? " I spent 10 minutes trying to get my order through ebcause they didn't know what Large was.

Its kewl to create an atmosphere, but everyone doesn't want to participate in it and StarBucks employees should have that respect.

Cuz

Tall, and Venti just doesnt make sens.e Why is the Tall considered small?
I think Tall I expect a Tall drink you know what I mean?

Anyway also they exploit third world countries in South America.

Pretty much every coffee place "exploits" third world countries in South America. It's where most coffee comes from.

I always buy organic fair trade shade grown coffee, but then again I don't drink coffee, so I only buy it as gifts for others.

[Calliope]

The only thing printed on a coffee cup I should be drinking out of should go something like:

"Yes, I know that coffee is bad, but this is *Kokako* coffee, okay? This is only my third cup today I swear, and don't even talk to me until I've finished. Drinking. Not shaking. Hey you! I'll trade you my cellphone for another cup of this deathmongering! COME BACK!"

I think I'm going to ;_;.

This isn't the most profound pro-homosexual campaign ever, but it's certainly an interesting distraction. Which is probably why the conservatives have jumped on it so.

[DarkLadyNyara]

Wait, so by using quotations of great, accomplished people, we are offending conservatives and people of faith?

Yep. Or rather, we are offending anal-retentive idiots (that is a seiriously edited version of what I'm thinking) who are terrified of independant thought, and hide it under the banner of faith.

"I surrendered my youth to the people I feared when I could have been out there loving someone. Don't make that mistake yourself. Life's too damn short."

A notable sentiment, and it could refer to alot of things. This group is just blowing smoke. Not that that's anything new.

[Teek]

Can everyone kindly shut up about the conservatives leading the attack. Seriously, I don't know which is worse - a conservative Christian who fights independence or a petulant liberal who whines that the world is going to hell becuase of conservatives.

And I don't see why anyone cares. It's a great quote, and even if I was anti-homosexual, it doesn't imply homosexuality whatsoever.

[UltimateSpamGrover]

I just think Starbucks is downright nasty.

[Shlup]

Whether or not anyone likes the taste of Starbucks coffee has nothing to do with the topic of the thread.

[Raistlin]

I don't understand what the big deal is. Starbucks owns the cups until you buy them, so they can put whatever the hell they want on them. If you don't like it, buy coffee somewhere else. Simple as that.

[Shlup]

I'm pretty sure the only ones who disagree with you are those crazy womenz that the article is about.

[Teek]

I say we kill them.

[Shlup]

Now you're thinkin' like a champ!

My sister works at Starbucks so I'm in there a lot. Yes it often seems that
it's a gigantic faceless corporation set on world domination but when you
get down to it, when you get to each individual shop, it's just a cool
place with nice, cool people. They pay their workers well, and they're
pretty environment friendly. They have a lot of music integrated into their
design, and their coffee, though often expensive, is good. If you want
regular coffee, make your own or buy something of less quality, but you
can't knock a company for charging more for a superior product.

Now, the Way We See It things...of course they're going to be more liberal,
Starbucks in itself is a company based more on liberal thought.

Also that movie wasn't offensive, it was just retarded. Thanks for
wasting my precious time. I could have been scratching my ass.

Actually I did that while I was watching it.

I'm willing to bet you made that story up.
