Expecting it to be seen and that it would become a meme is not a stretch.


No, it is. So are we 100% committed to just ignoring that it wasn't a Starbucks cup?

If an advertisement, they would not use a generic or non-Starbucks labeled cup. PJs wouldn't put in a generic cup and just pray that you thought of them instead of Starbucks.

Come up for air.

They would because the logo would be too distracting. It's enough that the buzz afterwards is about Starbucks.

Notice they haven't been relentlessly correcting people who say it's Starbucks. Plus, isn't this the second time they've done this?

The real question is: who owns that little Irish coffee place? Eh? If the owner is listed as "Rachel Benoiff" or "Lilian Weiss," I'm calling Jump Street.
