An Open Letter to Starbucks

Dear Starbucks,

Why does the dancing snowman on my drink cup have a schlong? No, seriously, why does he have a schlong? It’s really hard to capture with my cell phone camera, but he’s practically doing a “worship my boner” dance. AND I WANT TO KNOW WHY.

Sincerely,

Mellzah Dildarian

    He wants to inject you with his hot “beverage”

    1. admin November 9, 2010 at 6:54 pm

      That’s funny, because he was just whispering in my ear about doing that to you.

      1. entropic_system November 9, 2010 at 7:03 pm

        Not until I have enough money. I guess it’s Starbucks’ “beverage with leverage.”

        1. admin November 9, 2010 at 7:06 pm

          PUT IT IN YOUR MOUTH AND SUCK IT DOWN

          1. entropic_system November 9, 2010 at 7:11 pm

            Yeah, baby: I got some “foam” for your “latte”

            (quotes can make ANYTHING dirty)

          2. admin November 9, 2010 at 7:24 pm

            I heard you like it “extra hot” and “sugar free” if you know what I mean.

          3. entropic_system November 9, 2010 at 7:26 pm

            Yeah, I’ll take a “grande”

            Wait.

          4. admin November 9, 2010 at 7:27 pm

            “Three pumps”.

  2. pretzelcoatl November 9, 2010 at 6:53 pm

    It’s really Jack Frost.

    1. admin November 9, 2010 at 6:55 pm

      Thanks for reminding me of the snowman rape scene, I’d been hoping the brain cells hanging on to that one had died off. 😛

  3. greyweirdo November 9, 2010 at 7:08 pm

    He’s just happy to see you.

    1. admin November 9, 2010 at 7:22 pm

      Then why won’t he look me in the eyes!?

      1. greyweirdo November 9, 2010 at 7:26 pm

        He’s too hypnotized by your glorious bosom. Also, he’s sort of a pig. I mean, he’s waving his wang at your after all.

        1. admin November 9, 2010 at 7:27 pm

          Why not start with a handshake, snowman? Or a high-five? Did we have to go directly to boner?

          1. greyweirdo November 9, 2010 at 7:38 pm

            Snow men know nothing of subtlety. You probably shouldn’t go to bed with him either. He knows nothing of foreplay. I’ve heard complaints about his cold demeanor too. Oh sure he’s all boners and caffeine when he wants you to put it in your mouth, but once it’s gone he’s hollow and cares nothing about your needs.

            Frankly, I think it’s good you’re learning this now before you do something you’ll regret.

          2. admin November 9, 2010 at 7:47 pm

            Cold demeanor? I’ve heard it’s borderline icy, and when you finally think he’s starting to warm up to you, he just disappears.

          3. greyweirdo November 9, 2010 at 7:50 pm

            Not to mention his um… member just shrinks the more attention you pay it. I think he’s got performance anxiety.

            Or so I’ve heard! I don’t know myself! Some girl told me!

          4. admin November 9, 2010 at 8:00 pm

            There are a lot of contradictory rumors going on about the guy, I’ve also heard carolers going on about his magic thumpety-thump-thump.

          5. greyweirdo November 9, 2010 at 8:18 pm

            Everybody has a group that tells tales about them.

  4. scearley November 9, 2010 at 7:15 pm

    I think the more important question is why you have a problem with worshipping red snowmen’s boners.

    It’s an anthropologically important dance.

    1. admin November 9, 2010 at 7:23 pm

      I get coffee because some mornings I’m not up to dealing with ANYTHING the world has to throw at me, up to and including snowman boner dances.

    2. entropic_system November 9, 2010 at 7:26 pm

      Better that than stumping, amirite?

  5. conceptcanibal November 9, 2010 at 7:25 pm

    I see it. I SEE IT! Finally, Starbucks goes Freudian.

    1. admin November 9, 2010 at 7:31 pm

      It’s very symbolic of what they’re doing to you when you overpay for coffee.

      1. conceptcanibal November 9, 2010 at 7:33 pm

        Man, I wish I got boned every time I over paid for coffee.

        Actually… my free coffee from loving boning boyfriend does the trick:)

        1. admin November 9, 2010 at 7:36 pm

          99.99% of the time, other people in the office are paying for my coffee.

          I should ask them if they’re getting boned.

          Wait.

          No.

          1. scearley November 9, 2010 at 7:49 pm

            When you ask, make sure you use the air quotes.

            Are you getting “boned” when you get coffee?

          2. admin November 9, 2010 at 8:02 pm

            Airquotes or not, I think that question would send me directly into a conference call with HR.

  6. luscious_words November 9, 2010 at 7:41 pm

    The real question is if you’re the lone special recipient of the snowman’s schlong or if he’s waving his tackle in everyone’s faces? 🙂

    1. admin November 9, 2010 at 7:45 pm

      I went to check everyone else’s cups in the office, but they all had different designs, so I can’t be certain if every Starbucks snowman has a boner or not. :\

      1. luscious_words November 9, 2010 at 7:48 pm

        Hmmm, at least we know he’s Happy the Snowboner for you.

        1. admin November 9, 2010 at 8:01 pm

          Gee, lucky me!

      2. greyweirdo November 9, 2010 at 8:18 pm

        Seems like a perfect conversation starter. “Hey! I’ve got a boner on my cup. Do you have a boner?”

        1. admin November 9, 2010 at 8:23 pm

          I am going to storm straight into Starbucks and start demanding to see people’s snowman boners.

          1. greyweirdo November 9, 2010 at 8:27 pm

            Show me your snow boner! YOU! Let’s see what you’re packing!

          2. admin November 9, 2010 at 8:30 pm

            I’m either going to be the most popular girl there or banned for life.

          3. greyweirdo November 9, 2010 at 8:31 pm

            You’re cute, they’ll love you.

  7. tbass November 9, 2010 at 10:11 pm

    fuck yes. i’m getting some coffee.

    1. admin November 9, 2010 at 11:06 pm

      Watch out for the icicle!

  8. corellian_sugar November 9, 2010 at 11:09 pm

    I’ll never think of a double shot espresso quite the same way again.

    1. admin November 9, 2010 at 11:16 pm

      I, for one, am a little concerned about the source of the cream for my americano.

  9. vurumai November 10, 2010 at 5:58 am

    And just how do you think baby snowmen are made?

  10. thecostumegal November 10, 2010 at 4:32 am

    They want to make sure the caffeine is really working.
