Starbucks Soliloquy

Saturday, January 31, 2009

My desk is an absolute mess and I vowed today that if I accomplished one thing it would be to clean it up.

While I was throwing away random scraps of paper, I came across a Starbucks bag that once contained a cookie...or possibly a brownie (there were chocolate remnants inside it). On the outside of the back, beside the Starbucks Coffee logo with the weird two tailed mermaid, it said the following in wispy inspiring-looking font.

flavours
my senses
sweetens my disposition
stirs my imagination
nourishes
my dreams


Are you KIDDING me? A chocolate chip cookie from Starbucks does none of these things. Here's what I think it should read.


dulls
my senses
sweetens my blood
stirs my bowels
nourishes
uh, nothing


That's a little more adequate of a description, right?

it should say
sweetens your bowels
and flavours your blood

they are missing out on the vampire portion of the market.

The vampire demographic is a HUGE market, you're so right.

HA!

Vampire: "I'll have a decaf, no foam, blood latte, and for Satan's sake can you please make it HOT this time?!"

Starbucks guy: "Uh, would you like whip cream on that?"

Vampire: "Oh yes please!"
