Costco.com? You’d have to decide if it’s worth it...

“Says the clown that misspells comprehension. I caught more than you did, dumbass. Just what we need, another nazi telling us about something we “don’t need”. They do that with guns, too. “Why do you need that?” None of your damn business.”

When you find yourself too deep, best to stop digging.

Only a ja would make a big deal out of a typo and falsely say it is a spelling error.

“Ja” is not a word.

No idea, I don’t speak millenial and I don’t care to research their “humor”. Honestly, I don’t see what you’re getting so pissed about.

Keurig is all I use now. I'd rather spend more for a perfectly fresh cup every time I drink a cup than drink a pot in which half of it is going to taste burnt. I have found that I drink less coffee as well because I don't feel compelled to finish the pot.

Dittos for me. I get the generic K cups, not the buck a cup brands, and it's very handy. I don't hate Starbucks coffee like some here, but don't do business with them because of their politics. I used to get gift cards sometimes, and the medium regular coffee is something like a buck fifty. Heading out of town with my daughter once, stopped at a Starbucks cause I had a $10 gift card, and asked her if she wanted anything. Got me a coffee and whatever she ordered, and it was around $9. That's when I realized what people were talking about with someone wasting money at Starbucks.

Part of the move towards socialism is that a lot of people are being raised to think if something is necessary, it should be free. School lunch, medical care, housing and transportation are all necessary. My parents and I sweated that stuff. Today, many people think necessities should be provided and income is to be spent on frivolities like tattoos, coffee sweets, and entertainment.
