I stopped and got a cup of coffee this morning and.....I guess I have never paid any attention to the saying on the side.
WTF??? Is wrong with people?? This cup has printed on the side,
Now at the botton there is a disclaimer saying,
What the hell is wrong with people?? Who makes these kinds of decisions? Is this new or have they been doing this a while, and I am too stupid to notice it? |

Gay people drink coffee too.
Besides at least it was not printed on a can of tuna. |
|
Yep, same here, screw them!!! |
|
|
Looks to me like another attempt to make homosexuality mainstream so that anyone who opposes it is made to look like the one who is wrong.

I don't drink Starbucks. I'm not paying $$$ for the privelege of drinking shitty yuppie coffee.
Dunkin' Donuts coffee... that's the stuff. Made by a fat white guy with a funny mustache who likes to make the donuts. Not yuppies. |
|
Yeah right, it's not their opinion but they obviously agree with it. Let's see if they'll print my opinion on their cups

Looks like it's back to eight o'clock whole bean for me. Was buying Starbucks in bulk as it's pretty good coffee and worth the price but eight oclock whole bean ain't bad either and they're not selling the gay/hippy/liberal agenda.

Maybe they'll use mine. I submitted it to them.
THE WAY I SEE IT #74 "My only regret about not collecting guns sooner is that I missed out on many of the early bargains like CMP Garands for $150. I surrendered my youth to things like drinking and partying when I could have been buying guns. But I was busy chasing chicks and going to college . Don't make that mistake yourself. Life's too damned short. - Leisure_Shoot |

What can you expect from Starbucks ... based in Seattle WA, one of the most Liberal cities in the USA
|
|
Instant classic!! Actually sounds like my youth too. |
|
|
I never step foot in a Starbucks. Never have, never will. When my friends go in, I wait outside. That poem on the cup is typical "precious" liberal horseshit. THE LIBERALS HAVE WON. GAME OVER.
Yeah, right. |

|
They SOLD water to the first responders in NYC during 9/11, when other businesses were DONATING services.
F'em. |
|
Don't buy starsucks coffee, I can make a 1/2 gallon of just as good coffee, put it in a thermos and still save $2 bucks over a CUP of their crap. It's like pissin in a cup, selling it as lemonade, and charging extra for the "bite". Lib weenies.
|
|
+1 I don't drink coffee so it won't be to hard for me not to drink theirs. |
||
|
No hippie coffee for me. Besides, it's over priced and doesn't taste that good unless you doctor it up with all that foo-foo shit. |
|
In a free society, why would you oppose anyone's free choice to live their life in the way they see fit, as long as it doesn't infringe on your rights to do the same? ..and if you do try to oppose their rights to live their right to live their life their way, it isn't making you look wrong, you ARE wrong. For hell's sake, that writing on the cup isn't turning you gay, is it? I swear, this place is filled with closet nazis. Edit: maybe they aren't so 'closet'. |

or on a package of hot dogs |
|

|
|
Naw, I'm just accelerating Goodwin's Law to the fastest possible culmination. |

|
coffee at the gas station taste better then from STARBUCKS, and it doesn't cost no 3 bucks.
|
|
No thanks. I'll take my Dunkin Donuts
coffee with no leftist bullshit on the side of it's non-biodegradable styrafoam cup. Seattle ... figures. |
|
Mud is a step up from the bitter Starbucks brew. I've read the crazy things on the side of the cups. Those passages either make no sense, or are downright scary. When I go out for coffee, the only thing I want to have to think about is "cream or sugar." I don't want to be confronted by lame ass musings all over my cup. When I caught an early flight this week and got breakfast at the airport, I just hit a little bagel place. Got my plain coffee cup and bagel in less than 2 minutes. The Starbucks line was about 20 people long. Average wait: 5-10 minutes. |

What is really unfortunate for me is that I enjoy their espresso drinks....They have about the best cup of espresso out there.....but at the same time, going into one of those places for me is what I imagine might be comparable to an athiest stopping in at the RC church on Sunday....I just dont belong in there.
I often wonder when I am in a starbucks, would the little hippies serving my coffee be so pleasant if they knew I was carrying a weapon in an IWB holster just underneath my shirt? I have sat in the local shop with my wife and had lengthly discussions about the failures of socialism, the tyranny of communism, and the perfect balance of a well practiced capitalist structure.....I actually had a person get up and move away from me rather than join the discussion....guess it was just too much for him I still have a drink there every so often...just like everything else in life, gotta pick and choose ones battles...if I boycotted every company that harbored opinions contrary to mine, I would live in a cabin somewhere in a forest... THE WAY I SEE IT #631 "My only regret about being a survivalist is that I repressed it for so long. I surrendered my youth to the idea that the system worked and that if I played by the rules, I would have everything I needed when I grew up. Don't make that mistake yourself. Life's too damned short." - Macro |

The second they pay for all their AIDS expenses, and quit making me pay so they can butt-f--k each other I'll shut the hell up. Same for sluts, skanks, druggies, and the rest. You play YOU pay. I gotta pay I gotta say. Simple enough for you? |

|
It's just coffee. So the fag figured it out. Good for him.
The upshot? Starbucks got you talking about them. They win. |
|
Thats your government's fault, not theirs. End the socialist systems that destroy all our property rights, and are abused by numerous groups that trasncend mere "butt fucking faggots" and we'd be much better off in a number of ways. |

+1 Nothing is better than pissing off the enemy on their own turf. |

You are not representing the situation correctly. The problem isn't a bunch of homos boning each other in the dignified privacy of their own homes. The problem is that our society has been totally overrun by liberal insanity, of which this cup is a SMUG, PRECIOUS LITTLE symbol. Next time you hear about some transvestite school teacher suing the school district because he wants to teach kindergarten in drag or some evil violent rapist being let out of jail because he's been "rehabilitated", remeber that these things are being celebrated as victories by the exact same people that starbucks is pandering to with that poem. You "nice" people just don't get it. There's a war on, and YOU are the enemy of the liberals. Anyone who has a rational, decent thought in their head is the source of evil according to Hillary and Co. Think they will put a Christian poem on the cups? NEVER HAPPEN. Just why do you think that is? Keep being "nice", pal. |

Isn't Godwin's Law handy? Case's Corollary and Sircar's Corollary apply here also. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin's_law Godwin's law (also Godwin's rule of Nazi analogies) is an adage in Internet culture that was originated by Mike Godwin in 1990. The law states that: As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches 1 (i.e. certainty). Case's Corollary If the subject is Heinlein or homosexuality, the probability of a Hitler/Nazi comparison being made becomes equal to 1 (i.e. certainty) Sircar's Corollary If the Usenet discussion touches on homosexuality or Heinlein, Nazis or Hitler are mentioned within three days. This rule may seem identical to the previous, but they differ slightly in that the Case corollary states probability, while the Sircar corollary also includes a time limit. These two rules are sometimes incorrectly cited as the same and attributed to both authors. Looks like we made less than two hours with regards to Sircar's Corollary. That's gotta be a record. |

Yes, it actually is. I was quite surprised when I got a cuppa Joe at my neighborhood Mickey D's. Just don't spill that shit in your lap. |
|
|
No, it's their fault for even WANTING someone else's money in the first place. I put anyone who want someone else to pay for their BEHAVIOR in the same group. There is no "transending" BS, they want something for nothing, life just does not work like that in the real world, tho social engineering types try. |

[sigh] They always forget the Nazi's in Antarctica....

You're paying huge prices for crappy, yuppie, liberal coffee..........
And you're worried about a gay poem on your cup? I'd start in on how wrong all of this is, but, I'm hung over and can't take the blood pressure rise. Wake up 10 minutes earlier and, make your own coffee. Spend the money you'd spend at Starsucks on ammo. To see how I feel about that place, go to: www.illwillpress.com/ Foamy rocks! |
|
That's why this place is often called Snarfcom. |
|
|
They still win, because you're still spending $5 on a thirty cent cup of joe and having to wade through testosterone-sapping terms like "venti" and "frappuccino" to get it. |

FYI -- McDonald's uses Seattle's Best, which is..... owned by Starbucks! |

Imagine the poor gay guy who got a "The Way I See It" statement from John Wooden (famous basketball coach) on his cup - and is now posting on a gay message board in outrage: "WTF is up with Starbucks?? It's like it's turning into a sports bar and pandering to the jocks and sports knuckleheads!!" |
|
ETA: Why would anyone PAY for coffee - at Starbucks, or anywhere else - when you can just drink out of the gutter or public toilets?
Coffee - yeech! How can something that smells so delicious taste so disgusting? It's evil. |
|
I've never been inside a Starbucks in my life and never intend to go inside one.
|
|
Soda for me. I hate coffee with a passion. I'd rather drink turd juice, straight from the grinder. |
|
|
I get my weekday morning coffee from Starbucks a few days a week.
I take my own cup in with me both to save the 12cents on my MEDIUM size cup and because my cup keeps the coffee warm longer than a paper cup does. I'm making my order right now with Pete at www.lifelibertyetc.com for a new Molon Labe mug right now. |
