Starbucks Sucks.

Starbucks is sinking in my opinion. As a business model, it's very impressive. But as a cafe, it kind of sucks. There are still some items on the menu that impress me in their quality and all. But everything is so heavy and rich. Yuck. And I just bought a cookie, this is the worst cookie I've ever had. How disappointing. This has nothing to do with allegience or anything, it's just a matter of taste.

It's funny. In Fremont, there is a road called Ice House Terrace. There is a ice factory there. Cute isn't it?

I remember I used to drive to relieve stress. Oh how I enjoyed the thrill of driving. In that sense, I guess you could classify me as an unsafe driver. But the feeling of being pushed back against your seat at wot. Wide open throttle. I drove a Honda, and so the sound of high revs was something I thoroughly enjoyed. But these days I don't get those rushes anymore. For obvious reasons, certain cars you cannot push like that. But I still like driving. I enjoy taking turns, and seeing how far I can push it. I love the sound of tires almost losing grip, because it says I'm on that line.

Maybe that's why I like cliffs. It's like living on the edge. Who knows.

The number 1424 is special for today. I bet you can't guess why.

Yes, Starbucks sucks. I know. I work for them and I suck. (They don't hire you if you don't suck.) One day I hope to get a job doing something other than sucking, but for now, I'll serve shitty coffee to stupid sucker yuppie morons. They deserve it.
