I think it's a PR move by Starbuck's in an effort to win some of the liberal patrons back, after making a firm anti-gun-control stand not long ago.

Might be. I think the idea of having coffee with armed gay people is almost interesting enough to get me to buy Starbuck's overpriced product. Almost.

I know I would.

Guy de Maupassant.
Guy Pierce is pretty cool. He was awesome in Memento.
Guy Burgess is one of my personal heroes.
I only communicate through the written word, so I can't tell the difference.
Wait. This National Organization for Marriage has a gaze attack?
Surely the National Organisation for Marriage should be supporting gay marriage.
Or are they ironically named?
Its a poor attempt at propaganda.

Hey, Texas style gun laws work with America's particular circumstances.
Also, Kirth, while I respect you, I find this statement offensive. Being anti-gun control doesn't make me someone who isn't a liberal, and I take issue with the implication that it does.

Honestly, I couldn't care less. It's the action I care about; not the intent.
And it's not like supporting gun-control and gay marriage have to go together.

What if this leads to shotgun gay marriages? Think about it.
Gay's don't accidentally get pregnant.
Starbucks coffee is yucky :(
Gay rights are cool with me. :)
Thank you, that is all.

I watched SB push out so many little hangouts, my city just went to s*%$. I'll never patronize that place. Standing up for gay rights is great, but they're just a calculating corporation at heart, and they do what keeps the cash coming in.
If a cost/benefit analysis told them to do the opposite, they would.
While I would take exception to that statement and present a scenario involving an accident prone lesbian working in a sperm bank, I'll instead remind you that shotgun weddings aren't always about pregnancy, most are more about family honor.What if this leads to shotgun gay marriages? Think about it.Gay's don't accidentally get pregnant.
My parents are from the country, but I may have skipped that part of the trailer park educational pamphlet. I was under the impression the purpose of a shotgun wedding was because of an incoming child and a reluctant husband-to-be.
I could be wrong though.
The point about a shotgun marriage was supposedly to restore honor to the young lady. This is taking all the funny out of this but if the point of the shotgun wedding was to restore family honor, then the humorous conclusion would have been to have two young men forced to marry at gun point because they were caught having premarital sex. Usually a shotgun wedding involves pregnancy but usually the supposed reason for the wedding was to restore honor.
Okay joke explained, humor ruined, I suppose we should get back on subject anyways. It wasn't terribly funny.
I kind of wish that were true. I predict lots of gay-shotgun-weddings.

The wonderful thing about living in Washington State: for every Starbucks, there's a half dozen local espresso stands where you can get coffee that's just as good, if not better. Plus, no one asks you if you're packing heat or what your sexual orientation is.

Then why even bother going!?
Starbucks should be in the business of offering all its diverse customers a great cup of coffee, not taking sides against the views of its customers, vendors, and employees around the world.

Um...coffee?

I agree, but since they've already made billions without making a great cup of coffee yet, I guess it's only a free-market dream.

I like that comrade.
Did you pin up my previous post from Rogue state thread yet?I thought you might like it!
The two left intact aren't really up to your awesome standards, imho.
Look, having worked in many small town coffee houses, i'll tell you: Starbuck's roast sorta totally sucks.
The Dice Plantation does however offer shade grown coffee...
Um...coffee?...Plus, no one asks you if you're packing heat or what your sexual orientation is.Then why even bother going!?
It's not coffee; it's espresso.
My player's fiancee's father runs a roastery and has been embroiled in a lawsuit with them over a satirically-named product called "Charbucks." Hee hee!
Bubble bubble bubble, can't talk right now, but they only have ownership of the image, and parody is fair game right? (That made sense in my head, whatever...)
Yeah, but you know how it is: megacorp spends the money to go to court even if they can't win, hoping to bankrupt the little guy.
I should say, this info is all third-hand, so I can't vouch for the veracity of the tale.
** spoiler omitted **
I missed it as well! Its like 1984 in here, with a pinch of Alice in Wonderland.
Spa-SEE-ba!
Kak vy pozhivayetye?
(Not to be too formal, Mister.)
Perhaps Dosvidanya would be more appropriate Padroogi.
Not being mouthy, asking a real question: aren't "Do" and "Svidanya" two different words in russian?
