Thread: I am addicted to Starbucks coffee

I am TOTALLY with you!!! I used to be a Dunkin Donuts coffee fanatic and complained Starbucks was TOO strong....Well my taste buds have adjusted and DD tastes like cream and sugar! I think they put some kind of addictive chemical in there....Mighty strong, and expensive too Didnt get any this AM due to traffic, but I hear I am not supposed to be drinking coffee anyways

Yeah, Dunkin Donuts tastes a lot like cream, but Starbucks tastes more like coffee. $1.80 for a venti cup o' joe. Money well spent if you ask me.

DAMN RIGHT!

I must confess.....I stop in to Starbucks twice a week for an espresso

They have a lingo of their own in there that can go way outa hand...

I'll have a... grande' double shot latte' half-soy-half-skim with a dash of cinnamon

Their coffee is just so much better than any other coffee around here. It's strong and has a bold taste. It really gives you a kick in the ass in the morning. I've been driving three miles out of my way before work to get a large cup of the daily blend (I add two packets of Sweet 'n Low and a splash of half-and-half to it). I was drinking Dunkin Donuts coffee, but I am now a Starbucks convert.

GIVE ME MY CUP OF STARBUCKS OR GET THE HELL OUT OF MY WAY!!!!

Grande latee,pour moi,Please!!!

Haha I love this post! I'm addicted to the stuff too. I drink way too much - it can't be good for me. I was at a broadcasting conference at this hotel in London recently, and they were giving away free cups. Completely unlimited. I must have had well over 10 cups in one sitting! Apparently they do it for every conference they host:

I was drinking way too much over too many years. For the last year I've been asking for Grande half-cafs. More times than not, they offer an Americano for the same price because they are too lazy to do a drip (most starbucks don't have decaf brewed). Since there are 3 shots in a Grande, they normally bump it to 4, so I get a great tasting coffe with 200mg caffeine. Make sure to ask the Barista how many shots he/she put in, every once and a while the dipshit rounds the shots to 2, their machine can't do half-caf shots...

no it's waaaay worse than that!

SB coffee tastes like regular coffee with a cigar put out in it! There's nothing like buying your own whole bean...blending them as you desire or experimenting, and making your own! Try that. But that's the connoisseur in me. Like finding a certain location and variants of a certain area...like wine.

This! Buy your own coffee beans and make your own. Find your preferred type, and it beats starbucks any day for taste, value and health.

Lol

Just a simp with some auto search function or something, finding related threads, then trying to post a link to some blog for either a pay per click or cost per action attempt at making money. Shitty... Usually it's all done by a program.
