ATTN ALL COFFEESHOP PATRONS

A latte-wiz-wit?

One day Starbucks will rule the world. But don't let that scare you. Let that free you.

on sunday mornings like this morning, nothing beats sitting around the squad room and washing down my eggs florentine/havarti/spinich breakfast sandwich with a cinnamon dolce latte.

OOhh that sounds yummy

1.88 at mine, here in the springs. and its damn good!

I never understood the whole "Starbucks is evil" thing...it's no more evil then any type of chain store. If you don't wanna pay what they charge, don't go there.

If I just want coffee, I go to dunkin donuts...if I want Kona coffee I go to wawa (even though it's only a blend )...if I want to order something loaded with cafine with a hyphenated name that I feel silly saying, then I go to starbucks (which is a lot of the time).

My only gripe is when I'm stuck waiting in line because the person in front of me gets to the counter and doesn't know what they want. Do not get in line until you've figured out what you want to drink!


Damn...now I want coffee.

I never hang out at coffeeshops. I always feel like a foreigner.

i can't believe this thread is still going

its the caffeine

yeah, sometimes those hot barista girls can be cold as ice.

Fuck yes!
As a Tim Horton's employee for almost 10 years now... I totally agree.
Since when is the smallest size a "Tall"?
And if you frequent an establishment enough... please, for the love of GOD, stop asking for shit you KNOW we don't have anymore.
And no... we're not all the same, so shut up.
Also, You got your coffee, right? It's in a cup? You got what you asked for? Then you've already won... haven't you?
And if you didn't win on your Roll Up the Rim... deal with it. I don't CARE if you've bought one for the past three weeks, every single day, three times a day... If you expect to win from an addiction... maybe you should take up smoking, if you don't already, and hope that eventually, you'll find the GOLDEN FILTER inside your package!


/end rant

The smallest size is short, although I severely doubt anyone would go to starbucks for espresso.

It's much harder to hide mediocre coffee without six pints of milk and a sachet of pumpkin syrup.

"Hay guise can I get a venti caramel frappuchino with like, hella caramel?"

less chitchat more coffee, kthx?

(kidding)

Just wanted to say there's at least one reader out here in the internets who appreciated that line.

Seconded

I roast and grind my own beans. Coffee shops, for me, are great for socializing and reading and being sort-of-fun-to-play-on-the-guitar-only-amped-way-up Chili Peppers songs.

I'm sure I said this here long ago, but I still prefer small independent shops. Sadly, they are severely lacking in these parts.

Proper etiquette mandates tipping your barista.

And PLEASE don't forget to stand her/him back up again after tipping s/him so he/she can serve the next patron.

Yes, it is.

I am enjoying my Folgers coffee that i just made in my coffeepot.

Folgers is so indie cool. It's like Pabst Blue Coffee.

i had a guy call me "brother" today.

i wanted to punch him.

Umm . . . has Starbucks purloined the word "Brother?"

Because it's been in use socially as a friendly term since, at the very latest, the Great Depression, and, although it seems like they've been infesting the world for aeons, I don't think they've been around QUITE that long.

No. It was just on sale.
