Wouldn't it be easier to, I don't know... bring the coffee home?

If anyone ever gives me crap about my gaming, I will just show them this picture.

I don't understand what draws people to places like Starbucks.. It can't be the coffee.. Is it the atmosphere?

Well, some of their coffee is quite good. Most of it is overrated though.

They are like the Apple of coffee.

Their coffee is mediocre, but their blended drinks are quite tasty.

It's not bad.  It's easily accessible wherever you go.  It's fairly quick.  The girlies behind the counter often look good.  Uh . . . that's about it, I guess.

They have good coffee but it's quite expensive. If I want Starbucks I just buy the beans from the grocery store and make it myself.

I'm a huge coffee fan, but I hate Starbucks.  I like good, black coffee, but the stuff they serve is like molasses.  Disgusting.  Peet's is much better.

I prefer the Vault jumpsuits from Fallout games.

Yeah, Starbucks has an acquired taste.  I hated it until I went to UofC where I was basically given the option of drinking it or this really shitty ultra sweet stuff at some cafe (see Dennis Leary stand up on coffee). It grew on me, but I'd still rather not have to.  Tim Horton's has good coffee-flavoured beverage, but I don't know what that shit really is because it certainly isn't coffee.  Generally, I'll drink anything and I drink a lot of coffee.  It's a shame because it's a pretty big expense, but I can't really just make it at home because...well, I'm not there much.

I'll take Starbucks over Dunkin' Donuts.

Dunkin's coffee has gotten more and more water'd down, over the years. It USED to be REALLY good, at one time...

That chalk drawing is awesome.  Simply awesome.

I like Dunkin Donuts coffee the best.  The one by my house is hit or miss.  Some days it is completely awesome.  On others it is horrible.

Haha.

A few of my friends love going to a place like Starbucks with a laptop and work there. One friend in particular like to program there. Not surprisingly (at least to me), he's way behind schedule. :P
