I hope no one is taking selfies with those drinks bc those are very poorly made and not up to Starbucks quality standards
ADARKFIRE
He did such a bad job with the whip cream and chocolate drizzle that I doubt anyone would want a pic with those ugly things anyway lmao

Okay but who actually gives enough of a fuck to do this though?

If a sticker over the Starbucks logo ruins your day, reevaluate your life.

Replace a Starbucks drink with: 1/2 grocery store coffee + 1/2 milk. Then add sugar to a taste. Starbucks = the evil place

I am confused...why would people want to take selfies with a coffee chain logo on a plastic cup?

how is that logo important? are people that obsessed with brands?? Hey look I bought a beverage for the price of 2 pizzas, I'm a influencer

I do, because I'm confused. Why can't they snap a selfie if the logo is covered? Do they come from a place without Starbucks?

You'd probably get along much easier if you were less cynical and minded your own business.

Nothing wrong with taking a good selfie. It's the people who repost those selfies and view them who are vapid.
LarryTesler
Someone should prevent you from using imgur then. It's our own vapid behavior.
NATOFox
NO SELFIES! It's a rule here. So I mean imgur's wish is your command I suppose. Or vice versa?

they paid their money. give them their selphie nectar.

I'd let them. It's good for business. But you know how English majors be.

what’s vapid about taking a picture of a drink lol
WoeToHice
I'm still waiting for someone to explain why they can't snap a selfie if the logo is covered. Do they come from a place without Starbucks?
wipethatfaceoffyourheadbitch
Everything has to be perfect for instagram/snapchat. If you can’t flex your brands why bother taking pictures.
WoeToHice
Wait, is that really it? Is that the reason why everyone in this thread is foaming at the mouth and calling this barista an asshole?
wipethatfaceoffyourheadbitch
They’re calling him an asshole because “let people enjoy things” is the phrase du jour even if you can’t stand basics. It’s complicated.
WoeToHice
I'm all for letting people enjoy things, but if you can't enjoy a coffee or a selfie without a logo, you need to reevaluate your life.
Thefirstargonaut

Why not let people enjoy this then?

Because the enjoyment of this comes from a malicious action done to another. Enjoyment at another's expense is not a sign of a good person

Not my point. Most of us have done it. Yeah it sucks but it doesn't make you special or give you some extraordinary insight.

Never said it made me special? Lol. You realize how unhappy most people are. If that's special insight then take it away.

Peeling a sticker off a condensated wet cup should be pretty easy.
JavaWava
those stickers are made with superglue it feels
BklynPunisher
Unless they put the stickers on before filling them.
BlueberryQuickjet
Which is 3xactly how it's done
darkwingduckInaMiniSkirt
Are... are you not able to take a picture of it without the logo? The whipped topping is the best looking part.
PopeyeTheSailor
those dont come off in 1 piece

Those flimsy plastic cups? Maybe once they're empty. Otherwise you're going to end up wearing the coffee.

Jigglynuff
Only way to get them off is to stick the empty cup under the steaming wand. Even then it leaves residue
SmittyTitties
I’m pretty sure there’s another logo on the other side of the cup

there is
Brewer94
No there isn't. Source: Was with Starbucks for majority of last year.
RIPKobeBryant
No there’s not.
yourcommentisstupid
Condensed*
PhilipCoulson
Nope
AsABiologistWhoIsNotFunAtParties
They're correct though...
PhilipCoulson
Again, nope. The cup itself is not condensed.
AsABiologistWhoIsNotFunAtParties
They were just correcting the non-existent word, not the poor sentence structure.
danopotato
Man, I know we all like to correct grammar and spelling and shit but how sad are we? We’re commenting on an internet comment.
AsABiologistWhoIsNotFunAtParties
Not sure why you're being downvoted, condense is the correct verb, and condensed is the correct adjective for the noun condensation. It (1)
AsABiologistWhoIsNotFunAtParties
(2) is water vapor condensing into liquid. You'll be hard pressed to find any real dictionary that accepts "condensated" as a word.
carlinabob
Definately condensated.
danopotato
Condensation as in the water drops on the inside of your windshield. Condensed is the word in condensed milk meaning it’s concentrated
AsABiologistWhoIsNotFunAtParties
Windshield condensation is the result of water vapor being condensed into liquid. "Condensated" isn't a word in any real dictionary.
danopotato
Good catch on that spelling error I saw what my eyes wanted me to I guess lol and yeah I know science behind my example isn’t spot on but
danopotato
It’s damn closer than “condensed” lol
thrashinuva
Didn't they ban plastic cups though?
mandadadada
Here where i live, yes
awkwardashlyn
What do they put drinks in?
thrashinuva
Paper cups, so that the condensation makes it impossible to remove the stickers.

Not my point. The barista doesn't care about the company losing $12. They're just a minimum wage employee trying to stay sane.

The man is an idiot. He could run for the Democratic nomination but he thinks he’s entitled. Ironically, he’d rather not wait in line.
TheBlackWindHowls
Him potentially running as an independent so he doesn't have to get Dem nomination is a big concern. Could divide the left vote.
