    Off-topic seems like a good career move around here. ^^

    But, if you really just want to chat away, and not necessarily in private, then post here.

    The coffee’s pretty good, too. :3

    I slip on my beret, sit back in my art-deco chair while sipping on a nonfat grande iced chai soymilk latte. My ears are serenaded by the indie orchestrations of Feist and Bright Eyes. Life is good.

    I exhibit this poem as

    On my heart’s true delight,

    Sorry, CB, we’re all pretentious, beret wearing, weed smoking, wine drinking, poetry artistes.

    With bony hands I hold my partner
    On soulless feet we cross the floor
    The music stops as if to answer
    An empty knocking at the door
    It seems his skin was sweet as mango
    When last I held him to my breast
    But now we dance this grim fandango
    And will four years before we rest

    Figures. Most coffee shops can’t sell the food fast enough, so it all rots and they lose tons of money on it, so it would make sense if they wanted something that kept forever and then wasn’t edible.

    I don't go to Starbucks often because their coffee is miles more expensive than what I can get at a closer local coffee shop. Besides, Starbucks coffee usually tastes burnt. Or something.

    Starbucks is very overpriced. It’s a classic perceived value from cost ploy. Starbucks tasted worse than McDonald’s coffee in taste tests, but people think Starbucks is better because it costs more.
