    You'll Never Believe What Happened at Starbucks...

    Well maybe you will, but it's so fucking stupid I had share...

    At my local Starbucks (Long Beach, on Pine Ave.) they would tape the LA Times Horoscope to a cup for you to read your Horoscope while you waited for your drink.

    Today, when I went to get my daily Latte, I noticed there was no Horoscope for me to read, and it was replaced by a pack of Trivial Pursuit cards...

    So I asked "Hey, where's my horoscope?" and get this... they told me...

    "Someone complained that they were offended by them putting up the Horoscope, so they can no longer put it up..."

    Is that fucking retarded or what? Who the fuck complains about being offended by a fucking Horoscope that you have to PICK UP AND READ in the first place...

    Things are getting out of control in this fucking country.

        It offended the religious people that went for their coffee.

        I have a "Born Again" friend that would tell me I am going to hell if I said I believed in astrology.

          First you have to actually pick it up and read it... second, are you telling me that "Religious" people dont' get the newspaper? Cuz it's in there too.

                                Amazes me how many people get offended at certain things ...

                                My Starbucks doesn't do anything special like that. : (

                                      Starbucks is good. Their employees are usually very weird.

                                        What reason does it give them to keep living? From what little I know about Religion, Heaven sounds like the place they want to be.

                                                How many Newspapers/Magazines do you know of that print the Koran or Bible every day? It's not the same thing, not even remotely close to the same thing.

                                                Horoscopes are for entertainment... They don't preach a way of life, don't tell you what to do, they don't ask you for your money, they don't tell you that you'll be tortured in the after life for not reading and following them...

                                                    No the sad thing is, that the same person will sue them, and win a ton of money, instead of just not looking at the cup.

                                                    Look at the old lady that sues Mc Donalds, because she went to the drive thru, put a cup of coffee between her legs, and then spilled it, and got burnt. So she got like 5million for that. She said that the coffee was too hot.

                                                        this thread is depressing but pointless. the sad fact is the minorities have the rule over law today simply because they are the minorities.

                                                              There are a lot of religious people in the USA and they buy Starbucks too, i'm sure a lot of them were offended by the horoscope

                                                              Try the New XMovies.com and make more $$$ with your Traffic

                                                                I worked at Starbucks as a kid, and some of the customers are just that way. People get this elitist attitude like they can tell you what they want in your store. If I owned it, and they said they were offended, I'd tell them to buy their fucking coffee at Dunkin Donuts. Plenty of yuppie douchebags around to make up for their loss.

                                                                    At my local Starbucks (Long Beach, on Pine Ave.) they would tape the LA Times Horoscope to a cup for you to read your Horoscope while you waited for your drink.

                                                                    Today, when I went to get my daily Latte, I noticed there was no Horoscope for me to read, and it was replaced by a pack of Trivial Pursuit cards...

                                                                    So I asked "Hey, where's my horoscope?" and get this... they told me...

                                                                    "Someone complained that they were offended by them putting up the Horoscope, so they can no longer put it up..."

                                                                    Is that fucking retarded or what? Who the fuck complains about being offended by a fucking Horoscope that you have to PICK UP AND READ in the first place...

                                                                    Things are getting out of control in this fucking country.
