Pretty much one of the best sketches they did.

If one of you’ll says some silly ass name, this whole class is gonna feel my wrath.
Please don’t say artisanal. That is a bullshit word. There is such a thing called speciality which is a technical term for coffee that is graded at 80-100 points. If you are using words like artisanal or gourmet, you are not knowable. Those in my opinion are bullshit words that make poor quality coffee sound fancy and super gross.
I only drink speciality.
Back in 2019 during the commodity crisis when the price was below a $1, they pretended to contribute lots of money to helping their farmers. The company publicly announced they were donating money to the farms they owned. That amount based on available financial data suggested that that money was equal to a single afternoon’s profits.
The point here is that Starbucks could have been contributing to the falling price of commodities, which they should have released more current financial data for. More transparency would have given a better idea if they were having a positive or negative impact. What this all boiled down to was simply saying what they paid their farms. If they did that, it would have been better.

Please don’t consume Starbucks. They have a reputation for buying from farms in Brazil and Guatemala that employe slave labor and child labor.
EDIT: Starbucks also abuses the Italian language. None of their drinks are what they claim to be. That mocha you had is too large to be a mocha.
If anyone says aliens, I’m just going to call you speciesist towards your own people.
Tobias Funke would like a word.

2·2 months agoWell to my understanding, aren’t tax related things not controlled by them? Does Congress as a whole control those things?

Ironically I saw this ad last night.

🤦♂️ Biological sex.
All genders?
These really should be called sex reveals.
But how did you get a coconut in Europe?
Trantiveness is me.
This is why you get a whole house fan… if you are able to have one installed.


If they had gotten the same actor who played the college football player, that would have made it better. They made a call back to the sketch in one of the East-West Bowl sketches where a player is named AY AY RON.
