I hate their icky over-roasted coffee. Hate their inflated prices. Hate their being on every damn street corner and even inside stores. Hate, hate, hate how they want you to learn to speak their pretentious "language" just to order a damn cup of their coffee in the first place. And I'm only touching the surface. What are your reasons?
This inspired me to ask:

I've been in a cranky mood this week and just want to let it all out.

Like many a true-blue Floridian, I get my morning caffeine from cola, not coffee.
I have to make Starbucks runs for the addicts in my office every week.

OMGs, I loathe Starbucks. Yes, theor coffee is over-roasted, bitter, and tastes like cardboard. It's way over priced compared to other coffee shops. They are everywhere. You can't escape them. I went into one mall and there was FIVE frikken Starbucks in one mall! Starbucks is hell bent on world domination.
The crap they sell is incredibly unhealthy. Get the nutritional information, from their website it is appalling. The Caramel Pecan Sticky Roll (which has more fat than a Big Mac) or even better (worse), the Eggnog Latte are so bad for you it is astounding.

I absolutely loathe evil Starbuck's empire that is destroying the rainforests (along with McDonalds) while charging way too much for frigging COFFEE, fer cryin' out loud. And not only is there a Starbuck's on every corner, but supercilious, self-involved preppy clone/tools in every city insist upon walking around with a Starbuck's cup glued to their greedy little hands. Has Starbuck's become the new must-have accessory? Are we non-coffee drinkers "uncool" for not supporting the evil empire? Gimme a break!
Ok, rant over. Going now.....

I don't drink coffee but I hate to see people walking around with their Starbucks cup. It is just so overrated and it has become more of a stupid trend than anything else.

i have no use for starbucks whatsoever.
i drink coffee.strong, black, home-brewed. period.
if i want to drink a coffee flavored desert, i'll add 2 cups of coffee to some raspberry jello or tapioca pudding, or frappe 3 fig newtons into a cup of hot java. that has about the same appeal to me as starbucks.

No, I don't hate Starbucks, I enjoy their coffee and environment. It takes a lot for me to hate something. I think you could take that built up negative energy and use it for good against companies that are really causing harm to others. Just check out Peta and you'll understand what I mean..

It is a free country. I don't hate them. I admire their business sense. I like their Caramel Macchiato but their "regular" coffee is terrible. I don't buy it often and right now I have a $10 gift card. I also wonder if you hate them so much why do you go there?
