I'd like a half-caf venti soy latte protest please

[The Cheesehusker, Trade Warrior]

Actually not bad - and sounds like people weren't dicks about it. I like the name bit on the cups

But the mood lightened as more and more people ordered coffee using the names of different members of the Trump cabinet, including Mike Pence and Jeff Sessions.

Nicely done.

Thing I like too? It was a buycott - letting the biz know "Hey, we want to do biz w/ ya".

Half-caf for half-asses - figures.

I had Starbucks 4 consecutive days last week.

Thinking of getting big rings in my ears.

I don't go to Starbucks any more. Too much trouble to just get coffee.

Passing through a bunch of airports?

[agavi...@gmail.com]

I never get it at airports. Huge convention at convention center with Starbucks and my hotel only had a Starbucks.

Any other time it's if whomever I'm with is having it.

I'm unimpressed with their coffee, although their new(ish) brew, pike place (?) seems to have almost knocked the old burned stuff out of the lineup.

Neat.

Regarding the employee who wrote "Build a Wall" on a customer's
cup a Starbucks spokesman said “This experience is absolutely not
consistent with our standards or the respectful experience we
want to provide to our customers,” What? Nothing about the avowed
party political stand of Starbucks? That nonsense starts at the
top. Starbucks led the employee into it. Starbucks and any
company has a responsibility to its employees, the younger, the
more so.

I have at most one cup of coffee a day.
Never got in the habit of drinking it regularly.

Large heated mug
Maple syrup
Splash of rum
Heavy cream

I have a Delonghi super automatic espresso machine. Nothing like pressing a button and getting magical coffee poured into your cup.

I also own a French press, but I only use it when I'm car camping.

[xyzzy]

I don't like coffee in general. I get it with as much milk as can be put into it. White Chocolate Mocha is my usual Starbucks order, or Americana that I pour 1/3 out and replace with milk.

That said I like to get coffee when I'm having a very sweet breakfast (like a cinnamon bun or a doughnut) or if I need the caffeine jolt.

What that paradigm, Starbucks is good enough.

[agavi...@gmail.com]

I grew up on cafe' au lait. Now it's just cafe'. I agree on the coffee with something sweet. I'll have an espresso in the afternoon if there's something sweet in the pantry.

I was in the Navy. Anything is good enough, straight black. I will
confess I do like a good cuppa, and Starbucks is fine, but I will
drink anything.

In my house we don't. It's just coffee with no milk or sugar.

I bet that's pretty good.
