My morning coffee stops are at a local business owned by a Tea Party patriot. I don’t do Starbucks anymore unless there’s nothing else available.
Hampton Roads FReepers, if you’re through Gloucester County, message me and I’ll send you over the website info for this place. Her coffees are far better than Starbucks can ever hope to be.
My wife and I are ahead of the curve on this one. We dumped Starbucks a couple years ago. Haven’t missed it at all. Oh, if anyone is looking for a good bean for their home coffeemaker, try Eight-O-Clock Italian Roast. Beats anything we’ve ever had from a coffee outlet.
Just built a Starbucks near me.
Already have a Dunkin Donut near.
I wouldn’t use Starbucks even if the DD closed down. I would brew my own...
Any business that ties its name to perverts does not get my business
Problem with being on top is you start thinking you’re smart outside your field!
These new ‘moralities’ have nearly destroyed our country, but these guys are still on board for more: 41% illegitimate birth rate (53% for women under 30), 80 Federal programs costing $750 Billion per year to take care of these welfare babies (another $250 Billion at the state level), most of the unwed mothers plunged into poverty and state dependency for life, 70% of the residents of Federal prison come from these homes. Yeah, undermining traditional marriage is sure making things better.
I don’t want to see what things are like in twenty years or so when this crop of dysfunctional Ba****** takes over.
No problem avoiding Starbuck's - there are plenty of other places to get a cup of joe.
I love the coffee drinks but most Cafe’s I have been to are run by the same creepy people who want to “save the world”
Or, they tolerate it because it is somehow expected?
Sort of like the nature and backpacking sites are infested with libs who all know better than everyone else.
I guess becaue they claim to care about the environment. So, obviously only they, and they alone, can appreciate nature and the outdoors.
The same way they alone care about “real” science, too!
“Right-wingers” are anti-fresh air and clean water, and anti”real” science,afterall.
We know progs care because they leave thier houses they turn off their murcery lightbulbs and drive to cafe’s in their coal generated “green” cars to voice their concerns for the environment from their plastic (petrolleum based)laptops.
My point, and thanks for letting me vent, is buy yourself a cappucino maker with the little cream steamer.
It would help the economy a little without supporting leftards and their retarded ideas.
Starbucks coffee is the worst commercially available swill I have ever tasted. What they do is over-roast the low quality beans they buy to increase the bitterness so that it tastes strong even though they cut back on the quantity the use with each brew. You pay $5-$6 per cup for weak, bitter swill.
Since I am a coffee connoisseur who just loves a cup of fine java I never go anywhere near a Starbucks. As far as I’m concerned it’s over roasted swill. I’m sure much of their customers come for the fruity-tooty mocha-lowka super sweet coffee flavored drinks rather than a real cup of joe.
I don’t do starbucks, over roasted beans and over
inflated prices.
Even McD has better coffee today.
They sell coffee at Starbucks?
Proud to report I’ve never been to a Starbucks. Mostly because the prices are ridiculous. Now I have a real reason.
I feel like the lone person that isn't crazy for the place :)
Hah! That cracked me up - thanks
So that's why I've never liked Starbucks. . .You've just described what it is that makes their coffee taste so bad to me. . .now on the other hand, Dunkin Donut's coffee, heck. . even McDonald's coffee tastes better by a long shot.
I haven't darkened the doorway or drive-thru window of a Starbucks for years. We've been aware of their left-wing lunatic worldview for quite a while now.
Thanks for the reminder that we're doing the right thing.
Freep-mail me to get on or off my pro-life and Catholic List:
Please ping me to note-worthy Pro-Life or Catholic threads, or other threads of general interest.
I got an email the other day about Starbucks. Allegedly, Marines in Afghanstan wrote to Starbucks asking them if they would send some coffee. Allegedly, Starbucks responded by telling the Marines thank you for their support of their business, but that Starbucks does not support the war, nor anyone in it, and that they would not send the troops their brand of coffee.
Don’t know if it is true or not, has anybody else heard about this? Or is it urban myth?
