Feb 26 2008 People Take Full-Sized Desktops Into Starbucks To Use Free Wi-Fi Service

Improv Everywhere, an improv troupe that is always up to some sort of ridiculous shenanigans, is at it again. This time a group of them bring full-sized desktop computers (complete with CRTs) into Starbucks to take advantage of the free Wi-Fi. Oh the hilarity. You should see the looks on the faces of bystanders. They're all totally thinking WTF. What a great prank. Almost as awesome as the prank when I hid under my girlfriend's bed and was going to scare her when she went to sleep. It was hilarious! She came home with my boss and another one of my coworkers and took turns doing them while I cried silently and tried to avoid the bedsprings. Yeah, I got her good.

Dec 26 2007 Man Buys Most Expensive Starbucks Drink

Recently a man, who will now be known as Shaky Hands Joe, went to Starbucks in an attempt to buy the most expensive drink he could imagine. It turned out to be a 13 shot venti soy hazelnut vanilla cinnamon white mocha with extra white mocha and caramel, which will now be known as the drink that tastes like ass. It would have cost $13.76 with tax (ignore receipt), but the bastard had a coupon and got it for free. This story reminds me of the time I went on a date and ordered the most expensive bottle of wine the restaurant had. Not only did it not come in a box, it cost $600! After we had finished our meal I excused myself to the restroom and tried to escape out the window. Unfortunately I was too drunk and ended up passing out in a stall and puking on myself. See, very similar story.
