I’m sure it’s their sugary stuff that most people like.
I must be a dweeb, because I like their dark coffee. Even when I buy beans to grind, I like the darker stuff.

Dunno. I haven’t been forced to buy coffee in at least 10 years. Waste of money.

I would say both, since every Starbucks is lined up to the street with cars in the morning. Dad gets black coffee and mom gets something a bit fancier. They do it all over again with iced coffee drinks.

I haven't ordered anything at a Starbucks in about 15 years.

I've never been in nor driven through a Starbucks.

Cafe au lait at the beignet shop in Metairie spoiled me for good coffee at a fair price. (This was years ago.)

So why not just say “I don’t shop there?”

If you say that you don’t shop there “with intent,” you’re implying it’s possible for you to shop there without intent. How does that work?

Starbucks is burnt garbage coffee. I get it on work travel only if nothing else is at airport. My order is the venti blonde roast which somehow takes forever to make.

Small, medium, and large. They somehow are able to figure it out.

Lol. You are struggling.

There’s a lot of stores I just happen to not shop at.

Then there are stores I will not shop at on principle and actively go out of may way not to.

You getting there? Let me know if I need to continue explaining this very difficult concept to you.

“Venti means large”

“No Venti means 20, Tall means large, Grande is Spanish for large, Venti is the only one that doesn’t mean large”.

Venti cold brew black. I hardly ever add anything to it but if I do it would be a splash of heavy cream.

I don't go to Starbucks. I make my own coffee at home or in the office.
