2. I've never had coffee ANYWHERE.
I can't stand that foul stuff. I really don't see how anyone can drink it!

8. I am with you trotsky
I even made it through graduate school without ever learning how to drink coffee. I take my caffeine the way civilized people do, by drinking tea (or mountain dew).

4. I only go to Bucky's for their Caramel Frappuccinos.
But the closest Starbucks to me is on the other side of town, so I don't go there often.

7. count yourself lucky
that stale bean over brewed acidic crap will eat holes in your stomach (and I sell espresso for a living and drink on average 8 shots or more a day)

if you like coffee, steer clear of BigBucks!

12. You're not missing all that much.
Starbuck's coffee isn't nothing to write home about it, IMO.

13. Very unbelieveable...
I love the stuff...But honestly, I'm more into the tea they have. Like yesterday I had this great Black Tea Lemonade. It was great. Oh, and their frappaccino is sooo good. Allen, you should go.
