One of several reasons I avoid Starbuck's: the freak show of persons of piercing, incipient AIDS fags, and bald-headed lesbians.---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: Matthew X <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Sun, 19 Jan 2003 20:47:49 +1100street, and through the windows of a Starbucks and a Victoria's Secret.Yes all those evil weapons of mass destruction made by Victoria's Secret... they MUST BE STOPPED!
The obsession with Starbucks really puzzles me. Starbucks is one of the few mass retailers that actually offers medical coverage to even part timers, it allows people to move from place to place and pick up employment at another store, their policies have always been actively supportive of people discriminated against elsewhere such as lesbian and gay,
Another reason is that I despise the "theater" of Starbuck's: wait in a long line (the times I've been, always because friends wanted to go), be "dissed" by the Persyns of Transgender, and end up paying $3 for a cup of coffee ("tips appreciated").
No-Doz and Vivarin do the job better, for less than a dime, and with no stomach acid side effects.
But for those who like the theater, the presentation, Starbuc'ks is its own punishment.
