Smelled bad, but worked. So why does the world hate Starbucks? Roll back to the pre-Starbuck era, and remember there was no coffee house culture in most US towns. We met up at places like Village Inn. Bottomless cup of nasty. Seems to me they paved the way for all the non-corporate coffee houses.

All that said, yeah, just trying for some humor here.
