Starbucks.

Any else spotted Starbucks Diversity Ads on tv recently. It shows blokes in frocks (Transgender) deciding on their girly name? They pop into their local Starbucks where the barista (that’s someone who makes a cup of coffee) asks them their name, in order to write it on their cup. (Recyclable bamboo of course.
I don’t use Starbucks but if I did and in support of equal rights when asked I shall say ‘Gertrude’ or ‘Philomena’

Re: Starbucks.

Diversity ads are two a penny these days. There was an ad on the other day with a straight white couple... honest. Ok, I made that up.

I think if I was in Starbucks (unlikely cos their coffee tastes like p*ss) I might give them my Roman name.... Longdoggius.

A white heterosexual married couple on tv? Wow! That could be radical...
Costa my coffee shop of choice has a cup of money on the counter for some reason, it doesn't say help yourself but it is bad skills not to. Ah yes, when you are waiting for a black coffee (no not an “Americano”, just a black coffee), and there is some snowflake in front who says “Can I get.......” then wants a latte frappe wankerchino with cinnamon and coconut milk with a maple syrup and mocha foam and wants to pay with his latest apple £999 mugphone, but takes 20 attempts before switching to his “save the dolphin” Visa card.., and you just want to saw his man bun off with a chainsaw.

I think they might just shorten your name to Long though.

Re: Starbucks.

Starbucks have the slowest service on the planet, perhaps because they are having to write philomena on the cups...
