:yum:

I only drink my coffee with shitloads of sugar and milk....cant imagine how much sugar and milk il need for this.

steve is getting the shakes already

Yeah, but 3/4 of that volume is ice, which you don't drink anyway. I'm willing to bet the 916 mL is only 400 mL of liquid.

I'm willing to bet 916 mL of it is disgusting and overpriced.

Lol, this completely does away with the image of class Sbux goes for.

they were going for class? since when?

to me, every other coffee shop (coffee bean & tea leaf especially) exudes more class than sbux.

Agree to both.

Danny: Can I get a large black coffee?
Barista: A what?
Danny: Large black coffee.
Barista: Do you mean a venti?
Danny: No, I mean a large.
Barista: Venti is large.
Danny: No, venti is twenty. Large is large. In fact, tall is large and grande is Spanish for large. Venti is the only one that doesn't mean large. It's also the only one that's Italian. Congratulations, you're stupid in three languages.
Barista: A venti is a large coffee.
Danny: Really? Says who? Fellini? Do you accept lira or is it all euros now?

Please tell me this is in total jest, because grande is large in italian as well.

And yes, Starbucks was, and maybe still is going for class. But when you standardize your design over 10,000 stores, that's something you can never obtain.

Too bad they are not making a trenta for hot beverages :shakes head:

Hot drinks will come in bucket size

Starbucks. Helping fat people maintain their level of fatness with a caffeine twitch on the side.
