Never have tasted Starbucks Coffee
Oh yeah I forgot I don't drink coffee.
I can't believe the word F*** is on a Company's Coffee Cup.
Do they have any Conservative sayings on any of the cups?
MMM I'll stick to my 24oz Party Like a Rock Star Diet Power Drink.
All Buzzz no fat no carbs, unlike those foo foo Starbuck Concoctions.
I read something about American Roasted Coffee being non existant nowadays because of all the over roasted popular beans so now the true American Roasted is now burnt beans too.
Somethin' like that.

People must be "in their cups" to go there. Mediocre coffee one needs to imbibe in a box of a room with dark, dreary, non-cheery decor with a few teeny weeny tables. Even the local greasy spoon is bound to have a better atmosphere.
"And most are drug runners, money launderers, operate in and around sex trades, etc"
"You mean like the mafia? All those good Italian, married, Catholic men?"
.............
Yes to an extent BUT the percentage of illegal activity is higher in the lesser population of homos compared to the lower percentage of illegal activity among the larger Italian catholic married male population. And there's no doubt many gays who are italian catholic and probably hiding behind a hetero marriage with prop kids.
There have been rumors that Sammy the bull, Gotti's former right hand man had a swishy side. Wasn't he a hair stylist by trade?
Not really. It's owned by an investment bank based in Bahrein with offices in Atlanta and New York.
The group is clean, according to the State Department, Homeland Security and various large institutional lenders who have done business with them.
Careful. A coffee cup might give you gay.
Then you'll end up working in a steel mill (which, as has been shown on The Simpsons, are 100% gay)
Are Charleton Heston quotes on the cups a priority for you when picking a coffee chain?
I go to Starbucks a couple of times a week. I've never bothered to look at what was written on the cofee cups. I couldn't care less. It's not really a priority for me.
The issue is not that it is offensive. The issue is that it is agenda.
And? What possible difference does it make to your world if Starbucks puts quotes from various authors and public figures on its coffee cups? As noted above, there were cups with quotes from conservatives such as Jonah Goldberg, too.
Seriously. This whole "issue" is over the top. Do you really think that anyone, other than the obscenely stupid, will in any way be affected by a couple of lines on their morning cup of coffee?
You're kidding, right?
Don't know where you live, but just off the top of my head, the homosexuals I know are lawyers, real estate agents, political staffers and doctors. Not a drug runner, money launderer or sex trade worker in the bunch.
I was expecting some perverted redesign of the coffee cup.
Darn, there goes our plan.
After church one day we stopped in at Starbucks in Simi Valley at Tapo Canyon and Alamo. Hubby got a cup with some homosexual cr@p on it and we vowed then, "No more Starbucks!"
~Luke 6:37~
"And be ye kind one to another, tender-hearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you."
~Ephesians 4:32~
Ah, of course. Heteros are never criminals, and when they are, it's because they are closet queens.
That's so funny. Does hubby approve of your screen name? You do know who the Mayflower Madam is, right? So, a coffee cup with something on it about being gay is horrible and perverted, but running a prostitution ring is cool?
I drink it black, no sugar. Try the "lightnote" brew available. They over-roast all their beans.
But after this bit of news, I'll not be going back.
The key to good coffe is: fresh ground 'arabica' beans, and spring water.
