Lola by Todd Clark for January 31, 2024

20 ounces is MEDIUM?!?!

But she has to push the right little button, Lola.

Venti isn’t medium, it’s the giant size.

So what is medium? As you can tell, I am not a coffee drinker.

Lola: “Can you say shut the &#@% up and bring me my coffee or do I have to reach over the counter and pull you head out of your @$$?”

Never p!ss off a retired Sgt. before they have had their coffee.

Please don’t tick Lola off!

Makes me think of yesterday’s Pearls Before Swine.

That’s not a problem for us. We brew our own with coffee that tastes better, and saves us a ton of money.

I don’t even bother to go there anymore. I really only drink espresso. Their espresso is terrible, too expensive and served in a paper cup which is an insult, especially considering what they charge for it. And since I found out that the have around 80 labor law violations and about their unlawful and just plain mean tactics to keep their employees from unionising, I avoid Starbucks completely. When I’m somewhere waiting for a flight or a train I will go anywhere else to have an espresso or a snack and wait rather than Starbucks.

I have been a barista and there is no such thing as a mocha latte, it’s one or the other. If you say both, you are being redundant. A mocha is a latte with chocolate. A latte is a latte (espresso and milk). That’s it! SO stop using all these nonsense made up uses for these delicious drinks….LOL!

I drink tea, but not coffee. I’ve only been into a Starbucks once — about 30 years ago, — and that was just to meet a friend.

I save money, I drink at home, and not coffee. I drink Choffy Cacoa. Much better, healthier and I can sleep at night.

Tell her f-off, Lola, and leave.

Right now ti.

Make coffee at home, buy a Yeti mug, don’t bother going someplace like that…

In that case, I’d like a medium mocha venti….

Rules are rules, ma’am
