Starbucks’ Cheaper Alternative

“Starbucks says they are going to start putting religious quotes on cups. The very first one will say, ‘Jesus! This cup is expensive!” — Conan O’Brien

I had an American girlfriend when I was working in Seattle as a software engineer intern. I told my then-girlfriend that my life was harsh when I first came to America: I ate a tasteless white steamed bun and had a cup of 2% reduced-fat milk every day as breakfast. My then-girlfriend told me that she had a comfortable life in high school, “I had Starbucks every day.”
