How do you like your coffee and doughnuts, if you please?

[Félix]

Not only is Starbux ubiquitous, but you'll find one on just about every corner.

I got a "salted caramel mocha" a couple months ago and they forgot to tell me they were out of salt (it was the end of the day), so it was just a caramel mocha. So typical. Not to TELL YOU they can't make the beverage you have ordered, before they have made you a slightly different one.

This is why I have so many bad dreams about Starbucks. (See dream thread.)

[Félix]

I hate when I am in a busy airport terminal with one Starbux as the only place for coffee, and the line is about 40 people long.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

And then you find out that each of those 40 people is saving a place in line for another person, so really it's 80 people in line.

[Félix]

And it doesn't really matter because I have only 10 minutes before boarding time.

I think SP might be donut fixated. Didn't she just start a donut thread the other day and toss Heiders out for trying to talk about savory breakfast pastries.

SP, do we need to talk?

This thread was about COFFEE when I started it. Somebody else added the doughnut co-theme later. Though you may notice that my answer to the doughnut question in the most recent thread is still exactly the same as my answer in this thread.

I like banana bread with my coffee, but mostly I just buy a coffee and nothing else. I don't exercise enough.

Okay, SP...okay.

I noticed. Cider doughnuts have that kind of effect.

It's not the elephant brew is it?

I hope not.

I'm a real jerk if I don't get that first coffee as soon as I wake up.

[Susan]

Coffee is essential to my day.

[Félix]

Which day is that?

[Susan]

Which day isn't it?

[Félix]

Any day now.

[Susan]

Right.

Much coffee will be of need on the morrow.
