Is Starbucks Passé?

[Tref]

I love Starbucks and I don't see it going anywhere. So long as man desires a good cup of coffee, Starbucks will be there.

I love Pete's, too, though nobody can make a better soy latte than SB. Nobody. Not me. And not you.

On the other hand, Pete's is good for iced coffee 'cause they make it fresh. And its strong, too. Real strong. Stronger than me. Stronger than you. Wanna fight about it I am right here.

Hmmph. That's what I thought.

Only 600? Will anyone even notice?

Starbucks is for panty waists.
Real men hit the counter at Denny's in the wee small hours.

Remember Ships?
Ben Frank's?
Sambo's?

I used to love Denny's coffee, especially when studying for a test or after a night of partying. Then they changed suppliers and it started tasting kind of like everyone else's. (My roommate worked there and often 'borrowed' packets of it for home consumption).

I associate that coffee with the "lost" art of conversation.

Many of us on this board spent a LOT of time in coffee shops, having this exact same neverending conversation...about everything and nothing.

Truth be told, it was a lot like this board, except with free refills.

I just do not like coffee of any kind, from anywhere, at all. Tea is for me.

But I do love talking about everything and nothing.

Our young friend is correct, McDonalds coffee is good. Real good.

Though not their iced coffees -- those suck.

I'm not a fan of iced coffee, but I have been told otherwise by some. YMMV

Sweet Caroline, I did it! My work has come its fruition and it is good. I think I am going to treat myself to something nice -- like an iced coffee from McDonalds, though I hear from the grapevine they're not too good.
