Enjoy my caffeine sweet and cold, so mostly carbonated things for my fix. But, when I do get the craving for a cup of coffee...it’s that greasy 4 day old stuff at 7-11. That’ll bite your face off and cures the urge. ;)
The Coincidence Theorists are right...
Ayn Rand was writing a blueprint, not a warning, in ATLAS SHRUGGED.
(I wonder if this means she really was Rothchild’s GF? She certainly seemed to hate Christ with a vengeance — scary hate)
Stopped visiting then years ago.
Every town now has a selection of entrepreneurial, locally-owned, interesting, hip, friendly coffee and bakery shops. Find one you like, whose owners are good people (entrepreneurs love to meet customers) and support the small, local guy.
Just doing my little part to make the phony leftist social-justice marketing, corporate crony capitalists disappear.
Terribly over priced and no taste. Crap product. Go to another coffee house with real coffee. Youll be glad u did!
I like the stuff at Exxon myself
overpriced poser juice.
I bought it once, thought it was gross and never went back.
Buy a Breville expresso machine for $300-400. You’ll never miss Starbucks.
When the husband and I first started dating, we went to 4Bucks a lot. Then we started thinking like a couple, instead of 2 people on a date, and realized we had spent about $2K in one year. That’s when I started packing a thermos with coffee for us at work (where we met).
Lousy stuff, but I am making it a point to tell *EVERYBODY*, right and left, who suggests I boycott ANYTHING to take a hike. I am sick to death of all sorts of people for all sorts of reasons saying ‘don’t shop here’, or ‘don’t buy this’. Just as my newest policy is to support whichever candidate who has the least strident and historic supporters. So I won’t drink their crapwater, but I don’t care what anything, anywhere funds, I’m freakin’ tired of ‘virtue signaling’. I’ve ‘boycott fatigue’ and let a few friends on the left know I shall explicitly start patronizing whatever they boycott, just on principle, just as I hate protesters no matter what signs they are holding.
One cranky cunsumer.

It also funds homosexualizing kindergarteners.

I threw away the espresso machine my sis-in-law gave us, and I still don’t miss StarPucks!

Relax bruh.
“Enjoy my caffeine sweet and cold”
There’s some great cold brew coffee concentrate selling here in SoCal. First saw it in Sprouts.
Bought a cup with a gift card a niece had given me.
One sip and I dumped it in the parking lot.
I pretty sure they had to have a paving crew come in to patch the hole it ate.
And it tastes like a cigarette was put out in it.
Honestly, I can say that I have NEVER sipped any product of Starpukes and likely never will.
My daughter roped me into buying her a cup of that over-priced crap several years ago, and I was astonished at the price, even then.
Starbucks founder and off/on CEO Howard Schultz has endorsed open carry——although he prefers guns not be brought into Starbucks, I have seen hip holsters on coffee buyers with no problem.
Schultz is also on-record as a sponsor of job programs for vets.
On Memorial Day, the Starbucks I patronize sets-up the poignant “Table For The Soldier Who Didnt Come Back” complete with a soldier’s helmet and a place setting with overturned glass.
PS: McDs has made a real fine run for the designer-drink business. Their coffee and "café" drinks are actually better and cheaper.
I’ve had ONE Starbucks coffee in my life...In 2001, I was working for DoD in Washington...Went to the bank one morning and hadn’t had coffee yet....A Starbucks was right there...
I went in and the little young guy asked if he could help me...
I said I wanted a coffee...
He asked what I would like in it....
I said coffee...
He said you don’t want latte or something else...
I said I just want coffee...
He said cream and sugar....
I said coffee...Black...
He said You...You mean...You just want PLAIN coffee?????
I said of course....
He charged me $2.25 FOR ONE CUP OF PLAIN COFFEE!!!!!!
I’ve never darkened their doorway again....
