Exactly. I find it hilarious people think a coffee chain is "trendy." Hey guys, is McDonalds trendy? They have restaurants everywhere!Originally posted by: notfred
I find it humorous that depending on what group of people you associate with, it's either trendy to drink starbucks, or trendy to make fun of people that do.
It's coffee. If you like the coffee, drink the coffee. If you don't like it, don't drink it. You don't need to make a huge social status issue out of it.

Exactly. I happen to like their Caffe Verona blend of beans (and have since '91), so I buy them to make coffee at home. Once in a while I'll buy a grande mocha or latte there. End of story. It's a coffee shop not a lifestyle choice.Originally posted by: notfred

I had my first cup of starbucks at a barnes and noble the other day. It wasn't great, it wasn't terrible. It has nothing on White Castle.
