    Struggling to keep awake, I finally dragged myself out of my chair and walked around the block. On the way back I must shamefully admit to stopping at a Starbucks and purchasing a Cinnamon Dolce Latte with whipped cream. I'm almost certain I'm hemorrhaging man points for this. $5.5 for a friggin coffee drink. Utterly insane.

    I'm not sure I'd ever describe the palid flavourless fluid pedalled by Star*ucks as coffee

        I'm a girl, so I can't say about the man points. Doesn't hurt you in my opinion. However, I'm allergic to cinnamon so just the thought of that latte makes me shutter. I like their frappuccinos though. I often get one at the convience store on my way to work. I found that non-Starbucks coffee houses hate it though when I ask for "your version of a frappuccino."

                    Danny: Can I get a large black coffee? Barista: A what? Danny: Large black coffee. Barista: Do you mean a venti? Danny: No, I mean a large. Barista: Venti is large. Danny: No, venti is twenty. Large is large. In fact, tall is large and grande is Spanish for large. Venti is the only one that doesn't mean large. It's also the only one that's Italian. Congratulations, you're stupid in three languages. Barista: A venti is a large coffee. Danny: Really? Says who? Fellini? Do you accept lira or is it all euros now? -- "Role Models" Love that quote... Anyway though... Even if I was a coffee drinker, I wouldn't set foot in a Starbucks... They have their own "culture" in there, and I refuse to be associated with it. Admittedly, I did go into a Starbucks ONCE during college, because a bunch of my friends were in there... Didn't spend a dime there, and kept trying to convince them to go elsewhere.

                    My wife likes their Chai. I don't drink coffee. Considering we didn't have a Starbucks until a few years ago, it's not like this place has a "culture" in Iowa. The local coffee houses have those folks.

                                      Struggling to keep awake, I finally dragged myself out of my chair and walked around the block. On the way back I must shamefully admit to stopping at a Starbucks and purchasing a Cinnamon Dolce Latte with whipped cream. I'm almost certain I'm hemorrhaging man points for this. $5.5 for a friggin coffee drink. Utterly insane.

                                      It's not about the price. The support Church of Scientology - so I would never give them a dime

                                        A Cinnamon Dolce Latte with whipped cream? I would have been too embarrassed to order something with a name like that. I have been dragged into starbucks a few times and I always order a regular coffee. Starbucks is so strong it gives me jitters, and I drink coffee every morning.

                                        I didn't get any requirements for the signature

                                        I buy Starbuck's French Roast, and have 3-4 cups ever morning. Keeps me going strong for the rest of the day...
