    Do the rest of you live in places where Starbucks is your only option? Boycott Starbucks because it sucks ass, not because of who works there.

    People should boycott them because the're charging a ridiculous price for coffee.

    It always makes me laugh when I see starbucks. So many young millienials buying coffee that cant afford it.

    Ill gladly continue buying coffee grounds and making it at a fraction of the cost so I can spend my money on adult things like real estate and retirements.

    I know people that go to starbucks 3 times a day.

    I'm not a Starbucks fan and only patronize them occasionally, but I think the price of a cup of coffee is reasonable there when you compare it to the price of a cup in most restaurants. But then, coffee is literally one of the most overpriced commodities there is.....

    I won't agree to anything unless they get rid of that gender specific term and call it a neutralcott.

    I would also accept girlcott.

    I love a local mom and pop coffee shop that I can walk to that I try to stop at every morning. I loathe the days I have to actually drink Starbucks.

    Buck Cott sounds like a porn name.

    There is no such day. I'd dig through my neighbor's trash, cut open his Kcups and run it through a 20 dollar Ikea French Press first.

    They make fantastic tea, and it's cheap too!

    What's your problem with nonbinarycotting? I thought you were an enlightened dog.

    The urine market has really flattened out lately -- something to do with the downturn in the Lakers. Hence, Starbucks can get its tea ingredients super cheap right now.
