LMK when you go after the companies that make Bawls and Red Bull. Damn them for stringing me along like this!

I have never tried one, but just hearing about them and seeing them on the store shelves makes me want to go buy them now. Damn you! I am a slave to advertising! ;) Sue them! Sue them all!

So, yet another stupid thread where someone whines about a stupid topic. Buddy, you need a
kick in your butt! Just how uneventful and boring does life have to become to sink to your level
of bitchiness? Really, aren't there more important things on you mind to talk about? Come
on! What, you like coffee too much, so Starbucks must be making you addicted to it? Man, get
real, face the facts! You drink that stuff because you choose to, cuz you like it that much, not
because they put drugs in it that make you lose self control completely.

Every time I visit ATOT there are a dozen flame wars going on because another member of the
fellowship of the whining nerds thought of another idiotic topic that will most surely invite all the
foaming-mouthed lunatics that frequent this place. Then we will have these incredibly
eloquent individuals discussing issues that they should have gotten past in kindergarten. Of
course, because of the huge number of senseless replies, these threads will take the
top spot, leaving no room for the good stuff. WHINERS! GET OUT! YOU MAKE ATOT SUCK!

There's no SB in my backward town, but I could get bottled SB beverages from local groceries. If I still qualify as plaintiff, I will start buying them by dozens? :)

Order this for best caffeine/$$ ratio @ starbucks:

Grande "REDEYE" (houseblend with shot of espresso) About $2.30. Pay first and ask nicely to drop in both shots (they always make 2 and are "supposed" to toss the unused one away YMMV). Tipping doesn't hurt if you're a regular.

Now drive 500 miles to a movie!;)

Americans are going to sue away their access to all of the good things in life:

alcohol
coffee
tobacco
fatty foods


:cool:

LOL @ Palek...

IMO, this demands a huge class-action lawsuit. Additionally, the government needs to institute heavy taxes on caffeinated beverages to fund support groups and addiction rehab centers for all the poor helpless addicts.

I hate people like you so much. You don't pay, you don't get the shot. That comes out of my paycheck.

Look who's talking. You're the one too weak to say no to a cup of coffee.

When I read the topic I thought you were suing because you spilled it on your crotch, thank God you didn't. Don't need another stupid lawsuit like that.

Even Folger's instant beats the crap out of the slop Scarbutts sell as coffee. The place has real charm though for the insecure, which is the kind of customer it gets. They are all the same. Once you master a few key words you can go into any of them anywhere and act like you know what you are doing. No need to feel intimidated by a real life experience. You're part of the scene, part of the routine, a corporate trained drone, another worker ant. Not to worry though, you have also been trained not to have a spare moment to think or even realize how empty life has become.
