Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Chicago Starbucks Worker Did Not Write 'Loser' On Order Honoring Charlie Kirk | chuds are so pathetic (blockclubchicago.org)

Starbucks now says that time-stamped footage from the store at 6332 N. Northwest Highway does not show any of its workers writing that message. Instead, the note appears “to have been added after the beverage was handed off, likely by someone else,” a spokesperson told Block Club.

Garretson wrote that a relative, whom she later identified as her mother-in-law, ordered the Mint Majesty tea with two honeys — an order known to be Kirk’s favorite drink — from the Starbucks. When the order was completed, the cup had “Loser” written on it, Garretson said.

“I’m talking 5 p.m. today, I want some form of action to the employee that represents this business that wrote ‘Loser’ on my mother’s cup,” the man, who is not seen on-camera, can be heard saying in the video, which was posted Wednesday.

“We’re looking for not corporate bureaucracy. I want immediate accountability; and if not, I will have this whole intersection lined with patriots today, I’m not even joking,” the man told a Starbucks employee.

What an emotional response jesus. Guy sounds like a loser.

"Don't give them a reason!" Crowd–where you at?

Also, as a tea drinker and herbal tea lover–who the fuck orders tea at Starbucks? Their tea is piss water.

The coffee is not good either.

You dont enjoy ounces and ounces of flavored corn syrup?

[–] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 8 points 1 day ago

their roast tastes like charcoal even before that

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 7 points 1 day ago

Hello Happy Corgi! Not corn syrup, but I did just buy 2 pounds of dates and haven't put any in the freezer yet. I should learn how to make date honey...

Nothing there is good. Their 3000 calorie sweet drinks are tolerable.

[–] KobaCumTribute@hexbear.net 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

My theory is they invented the overly spiced, mostly syrup and cream drinks to hide the burnt cardboard taste of their literally-worse-than-gas-station-coffee-somehow coffee.

[–] primrosepathspeedrun@anarchist.nexus 5 points 1 day ago

I like syrup. Not that you can't do better for a quarter the price.

Tbf, people also order their coffee.
