    I'm not a big fan. I'd rather have just a plain 'ole black cup of joe.

    That said, I don't mind the occasional soy latte with nutmeg and whipped cream. ;D

    Or you can just do what they did in my neck of the woods - built multiple in one location. I can travel from one side of the mall to another in six minutes and, now, as of last week, pass FOUR.

    Don't knock Charbucks. Some of us like our steak and our coffee burnt.

    I'm with the crew that thinks Starbucks is awful coffee. I love coffee, I don't function without it, and I've had many a cup of truck stop coffee which tastes much better than the sludge Starbucks serves.

    I am still hoping for the day Tim Horton's comes to my neck of the woods. But until it does...

    Me: "I'd like a small black coffee."

    Barista: "That would be a tall, plain."

    Me: "Um ... OK."

    Barista: "That will be $4."

    Me: "Fuck you, this shit is burnt."

    I'll never again buy coffee at a place where almost everyone has to have steaming milk or syrup added, for extra money, just to make it drinkable.

    Hey, Rosie, get the Minnesota franchise.

    You could get rich with just the coffee rights to every arena in your state. :)

    Hmmmmm............

    I am job hunting.

    Ya suppose they'd be willing to work with an out-of-work writer?

    Dunkin Donuts has the best chain coffee going today, IMHO.

    Bob Evans has some pretty good stuff as well. [/riograndebevofrancisfanboy]

    F'ing Starbucks has also changed the way they make Maxwell House and Folgers.

    I swear Maxwell House did not taste that dark 10 years ago.

    Nothing sucks like going into a coffeehouse and seeing a dude behind the counter instead of a hot young woman. Talk about the fucking licorice gumball.

    I hate places that serve coffee to go in styrofoam cups. The scalding-hot coffee melts the styrofoam, thus, I'm drinking melted styrofoam. That can't be good. If I'm going to ruin my liver, I can think of better ways.
