I don't get these people. I don't get the people who treat their coffee as if they're preparing a secret sauce to dribble over a $42 entree at a fine restaurant. Starbucks to begin with is overrated, they're just the most convenient unless you want to roll with a cup from a Shell gas station mini-mart. So after you wait on a 10 minute line in the morning at Starbucks, you then have to get on a 20 minute line to spruce up your coffee with any sugar, milk or whatever.
Why is it necessary for you to stand at the little counter and mix and stir, sip than mix, then stir and stir, then sip then stir, then sip and mix, then stir and stir and stir and stir, then sip; then clean your area, adjust your balls, say goodbye to the hippie behind the counter, then leave?
I don't get it. It's the same drink you probably got yesterday and the day before that. Don't you know the correct proportional amounts yet? 2 Parts of this, 1 part of this, stir and go. What am I missing? Is a cup of coffee to be IDEAL every time you put your lips to it? Is a gram of sugar more today than yesterday going to send you into a tailspin? ITS COFFEE! It cost $2. If you F it up, go get another one. If it was more than $2 there's so much sugar, ReddiWhip and chocolate already added that your diabetes will be yelling at you if you hit the sugar counter for more.
Don't people realize there are 10 people behind them just looking for a little milk to cool that thing down? Do they not care? Maybe I'm the stupid one. Again, maybe I should care less about other peoples time. Or maybe Starbucks needs to make that sugar counter just a little bigger. Like the size of a shuffleboard table.
I think maybe I just need to man up and start drinking my coffee black. Either that or start to enjoy the "Premium Select Roast" at my local Exxon.
