[Mr. Douglas]

After this last election, I’ll never darken their doorway again.

I never have...................

I never go there — but I am considering ordering 6 of these on my way home today.

On The Five last night Gutfeld talked about this and was incredibly dismissive and disgusted with the drink.

FWIW, two pre-teens and one HS senior I know all agreed that for something that has 1/4 cup of sugar in it, it tasted horribly sour. I can’t speak to it, the only time I darken a virtual Starbucks door it at airport terminals where it’s the only option available and I am desperate for espresso caffeine, which is about twice a year.

fire him

Just ask the ladies.

Unicorns are always sweet.

Well..his name is Braden......sooooo

A young man who is a Starbucks barista in Colorado described the “insane” scene at his location.
“I have never been so stressed out in my entire life,” Braden Burson said in a video that’s going viral on Twitter.
“My hands are completely sticky.” (oh the hugh manatee)

“If you love us as baristas, don’t order it,” he said.
“For the love of God and everything that is good, don’t get the Unicorn Frappuccino!”

[Veto!]

“My hands are completely sticky.”

What a truly terrific ad for Starbucks. Think how that will increase traffic.

The ones here give a free coffee on election day to people that have a “I Voted” sticker....................I’ve never actually bought anything from them...............

My sister bought her daughter one and drank some, she said one sip it tasted like cotton candy and the next a sweat tart. All in all okay but nothing to write home about and that it did change colors several times over the time period they were drinking it.

LOL!.................

Here in Houston, we also have Peet's Coffee at Bush Airport, which is far better than StarSucks, IMO. I used to get all my coffee beans from Starbucks. Haven't bought anything from them in years unless I am out of town and it is the only decent coffee I can find.

I don’t patronize this business.

Commerce is politics.

I quit using Walgreens for the same reason. They refused to fund the GOP convention.

There were a list of companies that did that. I wish I had the complete list so I could know who not to give my money to.

Overpriced, burned up coffee beans....got one down the street from me & I’ve never walked through the door. I’ll give them this though: at one time they made the best coffee ice cream in the world. It’s discontinued, but it was fantastic.
