Dennis Quaid Wants a Latte

GiggleSugar — Wed, 15 Oct 2008 10:10:00 -0700

If I thought Dennis Quaid was hot before (and yes, I did), I think he's super hot now. (Men, it's true - we love guys with a sense of humor.) Basically, Ellen DeGeneres wired him up to receive her instructions. Dennis had to walk into Starbucks and say whatever she told him, while a hidden camera recorded his egomaniacal antics and the poor barista's responses. I would never have the nerve to do this! So hilarious.

OK, I was excited about the new electoral maps, but hold the presses. I just stumbled across these maps - I think, we're missing the big picture! Maybe the key to understanding the country isn't about a mandate, it's Americano vs. Americana.

So do you live in a Wal-Mart state or a Starbucks state? Check out the real stats behind the numbers and compare!

Our Long National Nightmare Is Over

GiggleSugar — Fri, 29 Feb 2008 10:30:00 -0800

On Wednesday, Feb. 27, the unthinkable happened. Starbucks closed its doors from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. (You know, the time that vampires and the like need their cups 'o joe.) Publicity stunt or no, it was reported in the news, written up in blogs, and spoofed by Stephen Colbert. Sadly, as a caffeine addict, I can relate, Stephen. Multiple bags of tea do not a cup of turbo-caffeinated coffee make.

Starbucks: We've All Been There. . .

You order a small and the smiley face behind the counter repeats your order as a tall, so you shake your head emphatically and point to a small. With an even bigger grin, the barista chirps, "Right, a tall!" Oh, to hell with it all. . .

Spider-Man Sold Out

GiggleSugar — Sat, 28 Apr 2007 05:00:00 -0700

Rumor is that Spider-Man 3, which will hit theaters on May 4th, has a lot of subliminal advertising to watch out for. But judging from this movie trailer, I don't see any excessive product pushing. Do you? (Thank you, Funny Or Die!)

Product of the Day: Coffee Inhalers

Crack may be wack, as Whitney Houston so sagely said a few years ago, but coffee inhalers are way cool.

Police Reward Good Drivers With Coffee

Good cop, ~~bad~~ annoying cop? Traffic Police in Rancho Cordova are going to do something so mind-bogglingly ill-conceived and ridiculous that I'm checking my calendar to make sure it's not April Fool's Day. They're going to pull over law-abiding citizens and give them. . .$5 gift certificates for Starbucks. I'm sure the women in labor, mortally wounded kids, and folks late for work will love this one!
