I have never been to Starbucks and never will. They are a bunch of left wing loons.

No. It is garbage.

Coffee is only supposed to be black and hot. The rest of that chit is for nancy boys and the gays.

It's a good thing I've never seen any cups with false bottoms, or I wouldn't be as totally mystified as I am right now.

Naw, I'm not much of a coffee snob/connoisseur. But I am addicted. I average about 5 cups a day. Making a pot right now in fact.

Ten dollars buys me enough coffee to last a month. To drink that much Starbuxz I'd need a bank loan

Not if you make it at home. I buy a 2.5 pound bag of ground Starbuck's coffee for $13 at BJ's. I make 3-4 cups about half the mornings (when I feel like coffee), and 1-2 cups the other mornings for my wife. A bag lasts us about a month. It works out to about $0.15 per cup, which I can afford.

I like my coffee strong and black, I can get that anywhere without taking on a mortgage to buy that overpriced stuff from Starbucks liberals!-

Like your women ?

At one time in the city walking cross town I would stop and get coffee at Starbucks....I liked the taste but one day I changed my walking route (to confuse the criminals waiting to rob me )
and saw a mobile cart on a corner with a line.....I got an egg & cheese on a roll and a medium sized coffee that was very good and both were cheaper then Starbucks coffee.

No Starbucks.

I like Intelligentsia. They roast and then ship it the same day. I order whole bean and grind at home. Drip or cold brew (made night before) during the week and usually French press on the weekends.

Folgers, three scoops in the coffee maker if you want a little extra kick four scoops. Starbucks not a chance...
