“but that’s what Starbucks is, a place to loiter, LOL”
No back in the day before everyone had high speed internet that is where you went to use it with your laptop. It was common courtesy to buy a cup of coffee to support the place because after all you might be there for hours using the computer so you’d buy a big cop of that dishwater with whipped cream on top and drink it slowly. I found out why it’s drank slowly one time when went there the stuff is nasty.
These two men were not following the “rules”. Support the place by buying their nasty coffee. Good grief buy a biscotti and gnaw on that for while the thing is hard a bone!
Your comment is a meta-comment on vast swaths and demographics across our balkanized country.
Some peoples just can't follow the rules.
And yes, I said "peoples".
