68. Crankychatter is a Latte' Radical - Boycott Starbucks
I roast my own Fair Trade green coffee beans at home and grind them fresh.

I make the most astonishing latte's I've ever tasted and I'm a Seattle Coffee Nazi.

It costs me less than a dollar including milk for a quad shot latte'.

Starbucks actually tried to trademark the name "Ethiopia" and was being sued by the nation of Ethiopia to stop it. I don't know if that's been resolved but they don't use exclusively fair trade coffee... OR organic...

... and THAT, makes them transnationalist assholes.

Boycott Starbucks

besides... anyone that can pay five bucks a cup for coffee... then buys their brand name "Ethos" bottled water to "save the world," probably MERITS the term, "Latte' Liberal."

lmmfao

git some skin, baby... it's da "internets."
