They blow it more than half the time when it comes to regular drip coffee.

I still remember my first starbucks visit as a 13 y.o. Sitting down, having a coffee, not knowing what caffeine was, and having the best conversation of my life.

Sometimes I think Starbucks is more properly classified as a milkshake joint.

The calories!

Yeah, every generation seems to reinvent the malt shop in America.

The next iteration might be whoever builds the Starbucks of boba tea.

Gong Cha? Chatime? Here in Canada both of those seem to be expanding rapidly.
