Behold, The Oracle of StarbucksJust type in what you're drinking, and it'll tell you the type of person you are. It's surprisingly accurate (after surveying some friends of mine). 6 CommentsJesse Thompson said on 08/08/04 @ 02:20 PM:I told it I was drinking a 12oz coke and it said the starbucks employees would laugh at me. I've tried a few other combinations, and it essentially gets mad at me for not knowing what starbucks serves. :P Jake said on 08/08/04 @ 02:34 PM: Don't feel bad, I had to ask around to figure out what to order, too. The One True b!X said on 08/08/04 @ 06:12 PM: I don't know what Starbucks services either (in terms of their own terminology), since I'm a devout Stumptown Coffee Roasters customer. But it had no problem with "large double americano," and promptly declared me to be an Asshat. Some of my more oppositional readers at Communique will be glad to know that the description of an Asshat includes the following: "People who drink large double americano are notorious for spouting off angry, liberal opinions about issues they don't understand." Brad said on 08/09/04 @ 08:44 AM: It couldn't have been more wrong about me. That was refreshing actually. I kinda get tired of the all knowing machine. Betsy said on 08/09/04 @ 09:52 AM: I'm also in the Asshat category with b!X, both for drinking a venti iced americano (same thing came up with the alternate way of ordering it - a quad espresso over ice, heh) AND for knowing that the correct Starbucks size to use is 'venti.' In fact, I'm betting that the latter fact makes me a much bigger Asshat than b!X, heh... Jan said on 08/09/04 @ 03:34 PM: Depending on whether you ask for a "venti esspresso" or a "venti espresso", you are rated either a ass-clown or an asshat. Interesting what one letter can do.
