ugh. my boss just brought me a starbucks latte. i had to drink it in front of him, and act greatful.

i hate sipping coffee that tastes like someone pissed in it. and my boss didnt. so none of that hall of shame crap.

why drink starbucks? why?

why would i drink coke thats gone flat. why drink kool-aid without sugar in it. or tea using dirt. fuck i dont know, but that pretty much the equivalant of a starbucks anything....

A starbucks opened up near my gf's place in Paris. And I *really* enjoy coffee, so I tried out a couple of their coffees. they don't have too many but still. Anyway, I think that it's a shame adding caramel syrup, whipped cream, hazel-nuts or what-have-you to what was originally a decent small cup of coffee. Is it really still a "coffee"?

I just stick to regular expressos (a bit smaller than 10cl I think) in any local café.

Americano with an extra shot, best bang for your buck and there's none of those shitty extras in it like hazel carmel mint banana cream pie BS.

americano?? bang for buck? dude, its a shot or two of espresso mixed with a shitload of water. thats some expensive water...for your bucks

bang for your buck is like a cuban or something.

(cuban is x shots of espresso with sugar on top when it gets made in the espresso machine) ((or at least thats what i was taught))

So paying 4-5 bucks for the same amount of esspresso with a little frothy cream is more bang for your buck? Thats some expensive milk, for your bucks... I don't need any sissy froth shit, straight esspresso with some water, and it's the CHEAPEST thing on the menu. You pay twice as much for a latte, which is less shots and cream... I don't see your logic.

Haha, I have no idea what you're talking about. Anyways, I just don't see logic in paying the extra 2 bucks for frothy cream, and if it were just straight esspresso (which is good) I wouldn't have anything to sip on. Maybe if I had 5 bucks to shell out every time I wanted a coffee....

hey sped, i dare you to quote me saying anything that resembles

pay twice as much for a latte

who ever said that i buy lattes, or that i ever would. when i started the job, the cafe manager informed me on my first training day that americanos are bitch drinks. no way around it. and whats the point of paying less if the drink you are buying tastes like shit and makes you a bitch by association?

Real men and women drink Peet's Coffee.

I worked there for eight months, I just recently quit. Just so you know, don't order frap drinks in the morning rush. It's really fucking annoying.

Love,
