Question of the Day, January 19, 2011

[Eumersian]

I would, but I don't drink any of those drinks, with the possible exception of lemonade. I would be all over it if they put hot chocolate in there though.

 

[Bravo 21]

That is completely ridiculous, though i may try one, just to see if i can finish it

 

[icyneesan]

New Big Size: Awesome
Not Tim Hortons: Not Awesome

Spoiler: Starbucks:

 

[RandV80]

Yeah it's big but not that big to cause a fuss, I remember in highschool getting 2 Liter slushies. I was also quite proud that I could sneak one into the local movie theatre.

 

[Brutal Peanut]

I don't really drink any coffee. If I do , I make it myself at home, and it's only one cup (with sweetner and milk).If my husband or someone I know wants Starbucks, I usually just get a 'tall' or sometimes 'grande', hot chocolate (their hot chocolate is really good!). Or I ask for an hot tea, or lemonade.

I suppose if the cup were to last for awhile - then there wouldn't be a problem, but I still think upping the sizing was a ridiculous decision.

 

[Stu1701]

I don't even like Starbucks. One Halloween my friends and I dressed up as zombies and we walked past a Starbucks, so I slammed my self against the front window. Seeing everyone jump from the window bang, look up, and jump again from the sight of me all simultaneously was priceless.

 

[DeadlyYellow]

I'm curious. But going by Starbucks prices, I think I would have to declare bankruptcy when I buy one.

 

[AvsJoe]

As of this writing, the poll is evenly split on choices. Ahh, Escapist, how I love your varied community.

But yeah, I want a lemonade so big it results in me taking a 30 second piss.

Which I have done before.

I've got a Bladder of Steel.

Early nomination for post of the week. Lol

This works if you have a group of people ordering one of them& sharing // There is also the matter of how much that cup is going to weigh when it's full // You also have the matter of trying to keep the coffee in it warm over the time it shall take who ever ordered it to finished it

Even a venti-sized coffee is too much coffee.

Makes me jittery as Hell. And, trust me, I LOVE my coffee. I'm a caff-fiend through-and-through.

Almost any of their other drinks in that size would be just brutal overkill. Most are so sickeningly sweet I'm getting nauseous by the end of, say, a grande white mocha. I can't imagine downing 31oz of any of their specialty drinks. My pancreas cries just with me thinking about it.

 

[AmayaOnnaOtaku]

Where is the, "It needs to be larger." option?

Especially Coffee! For those days when you know you need on hell of a caffeine fix to make if thru

 

[Sumap]

a stomach full of coffee, maybe, Starbucks's coffee, noooooooooo. Anyway, I usually drink Turkish coffee or Lebanese coffee.

 

[trebach]

That will probably cost like $15 for a cup so i'll never know what its like to have a cup that large lol so indifferent is good.

It was only $3.65 for me. I'm waiting on the Starbucket myself.

 

[Falconknight06]

Sounds good for their Passion Iced Tea. It is an herbal tea so if it has any caffeine it's in a low amount. Would last quite a while too.

Drinking that much in one sitting would probably be bad though

 

[ishist]

There should have been a "I want one for coffee, not sissy drinks" option because I do.

This

 

[Dys]

Surely if it's 31 oz it should be trent'uno.....

And Meh. Starbucks coffe is very expensive compared to the (better) coffee readily available in any of the hundreds of cafe's around. Most of them (starbucks) closed down 'round here, though I can understand why it's so popular in the us, where mud is regularly drunk in the place of coffee.

 

[SL33TBL1ND]

I've never even seen a Starbucks.

 

[Random Fella]

Lol starbucks is a huge rip off

 

[Dexiro]

I'd get it, would be nice for sharing :3
