Yeah, but you're an amateur fry cook and I come from a long line of fry cooks that don't live past 25.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm happy that my friends who are Mormons are not likely to be upset about Utah getting on the homo-train.

I'm taking Thursday and Friday off. You would think the world is ending based on the initial responses I'm getting. Sorry folks. You take time off all the time - my turn.

I asked for coffee. Just coffee.

I really only go to Starbucks when I'm at the airport, so this isn't a thing I need that much, but there should be an Express Line for just coffee because it takes longer to ring up the purchase than it does to fill the order.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I thought the Starbucks app was heading that way (in the sense of it remembering your regular order so you could order it as you walked into the store and pay with the app and just get your coffee) but the newest version doesn't seem to have the build-your-order functionality.

I pretty much only go to Starbucks when someone gives me a gift card (not out of any anti-Starbucks principles, really, it's just worked out that way) so each visit is an adventure of me not knowing what I'm doing.

I used to go somewhere that had the carafe of coffee out for self-serve with honor system payment, you only had to go the register for something fancy. That was great.

I am one of THOSE Seattle people, and will only go to Starbucks if it is the only option. I like the theoretical idea of a Pumpkin Spice Latte, but the reality is too sweet and too much milk.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My officemate prefers the pumpkin spice coffee at 7-11.

I think Starbucks coffee tastes awful. To be fair, I think most coffee tastes awful.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Starbucks coffee tastes over-roasted to me, and I generally like a dark roast. My local coop has great coffee, on a self-service, free refills basis. I'm gonna miss them.

I'm a Starbucks girl. There are better coffees out there - Metropolitan, Blue Bottle come to mind - but none that are also convenient on a regular basis. I virtually never get any of the flavored stuff except chai.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Hooray, I don't have diabetes!

Now I just have to do a sleep study. But I'm guessing all the fatigue I've been experiencing is due to anxiety.
