Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for February 13, 2024

If the followers of Moses did find a gourmet coffee counter there, some of them would still be in line, waiting for their chance to be at the counter before starting to decide their order.

That can’t be Seattle. It’s not raining.

They may have got there too latte!

You can check out of Seattle, but you can never leave. (Apologies, Eagles…)

Careful or they’ll start worshiping the golden coffee bean.

The Seattle shop would already be closed because of drugs, crime and the homeless crapping at the front door.

OMG, for those of us who go to the Promised Land, we will still need to tolerate the Logo from Seattle.

HAPPY MARDI GRAS to all!

Grounds for an exodus break.

So this is where kiosks and venders got the idea….LOL

Seattle hates Starbucks today just because it is a big company and not run by the government.

The Biscotti is a bit soft from the humidity.

And GOD said, “Let there be DUNK’N”.

I am soooo glad I don’t like coffee.

There are three things that one should never discuss in the office: sex, politics and religion. In Seattle this means not talking about coffee: it’s as good as sex, as controversial as politics and people definitely believe in it.

One of the main questions job seekers in Seattle ask is “What kind of coffee do you have?”

Time to drop the arms and say.. maybe Egypt wasn’t THAT bad?

Embarrass yourself, ask for a large Black. Kid will say "A monte verde? rusty cubano? cafe’ del floppina? et C. While you stand there, puzzled.

Went to starbucks. Once.

As someone who lives near the Seattle area, I would personally hope to find one of our local breweries or maybe even a new brewery.

As with many others, it was one visit and one cup. The endless list spouted by the clerk [barista is just a gloss] before I could say, ‘Black one sugar,’ the price and the taste told me that I wasn’t ever gonna go there again.

Not right now, people, we’re busy!

Is this some Seattle joke that I’m not getting?

“Try our artisanal manna!”

Hey, you have to remember – 40 years in the desert needs caffeine even if it dehydrates you a bit. That wasn’t the Israeli’s fault, Moses was trying to launch the first travel agency and developed the first walking tour in the middle east.

I wandered the desert for 3, and I finally had enough, must have been the lack of caffeine!

That’s what Seattle need. More homeless.

Last year I went back to the Starbucks in Stanford Mall after 3 years. They had removed all the tables and chairs. All that was left were the benches built into the walls. What a drag. It used to be a comfortable place

LOL!! Yeah, well…… Seattle does have it’s perks. (Pun intended.)

I remember this. It’s the parting of the hazelnut milk sea. :)

Wow, so much Starbucks bashing. You’d think they were the Evil Empire. Too much success, I guess.I started getting my coffee beans from them back when there were only two stores, the market and University Place. Still the most reliable place to find the low acid kind we prefer.

It’s a blessing from the Almighty…Star-baruch’s.

I’ve long suspected that the government was putting something in bottled water to make the masses stupid. Something has to explain it, but perhaps it is in over priced coffee instead.

Is that stuff he’s selling kosher? And how would it taste after 40 years??

“40 Year Buzz Blend” was mistranslated to “manna from Heaven”.

The New Jersey version would have a toll booth!

That’s supposed to be the RED sea
