I go and get a Venti Caramel Macchiato about 2 or 3 times a week. Unfortunately I just moved to the south side, where the closest Starbucks is 15 minutes away. We will start getting them eventually, but right now they are primarily on the north west side.

Yes, I still do.
I usually just get a Cafe Misto (ie: Cafe Au Lait) or whatever the coffee of the day is.
I'm not a huge fan of the Frappucino and macchiato beverages.

Real men go to Peet's. Starbucks was founded by a guy that left Peet's back in the 60's. Now you can't find a Peet's Coffee without a Starbucks within 200 feet.
I hate going to Starbucks, but it's frequently the only/best option for decent coffee. But I simply refuse to order a "venti" anything when it's clearly a "large". For fuck's sake they call the smallest size a "tall", yet it's the shortest of them all. I went to a Starbucks the other day and ordered a "large" coffee. Now most of the employees know what I mean, but this guy felt obligated to inform me that there sizes were "tall", "grande", and "venti" to which I asked him if he thought that "tall" made any sense and to please just not to lecture me and give me a large.

Venti means twenty in Italian and the large cups are 20 ounces, hence Venti.

Most of the STARBUCKS I've seen are always connected to Barnes & Noble Books, can't say I've ever seen one in a mall. So, if I happen to be at the bookstore then I will from time to time wander in and get a Hazelnut Cappuccino. That's it, that's all I ever order. I don't change.

Yet you were begging me to hook you up with a job there.
"Dave, I need you to get me a job in Starbucks. I see all the cool hip young people working there and I want to be like that."
"I'll see what I can do Mike."
"FUCK YOU I WILL PISTOL WHIP YOU IF YOU DON'T GET ME A JOB!!"

There's a lot of them around where I live that are operated out of B&N books. Strangely enough, they don't accept those official Starbucks reloadable gift cards at B&N locations.

I'm a certified coffee geek (www.coffeegeek.com)
I make my own drinks at home, because in reality, Starbucks taste horrible, has nothing to do with "corpo" bullshit that righteous people say about it

I do not drink coffee as I don't feel like developing a caffine dependency later in life as "needing" a cup of coffee to wake up just zaps your vitality and in general I could see that as sucking major ass.
Just a bowl of cereal in the morning for me, thanks.

When I was in USA in summer 2002 there was like one in every corner, my tutor used to invite me there. I had never seen them before, and definately not in Spain. However when I got back to Barcelona I saw a couple of them. Now I think I've seen up to 5 different ones here.
Yes, when I was in Canada I saw one inside of Chapter's, and possibly some more in malls and streets.

Never been to Starfucks. If I want over priced coffee, I'll put $12 worth of quarters in the machines at work and only get one $.25 cup of coffee.
I guess it also helps that I could give a fuck less about coffee or any variation of the donkey ball sweat flavored liquid.

What, you don't drink donkey ball sweat? I thought everybody did?roke stAr said:
I used to go out once a day and milk the sweat off a donkey's balls with a gentle stroking action, then drink whatever landed in the cup. I also made sure to like my hands clean before I drank it, because let's face it, you should never drink or eat with dirty hands.
