Big bad McDonalds

Well the Clown is going after Starbucks? Why? Because he too busy selling cheap burgers to the tourist in bad shorts and herds of screaming kids and are not selling as much coffee? How silly is this? The Clown's management team is going the coffee market by putting up bill boards of " four bucks is DUMB". Well if four bucks is dumb then how about Starbucks coming back with "lets all have a Big Mac Heart attack" Will the Clown try and crush the little guy as Wally world (wal-mart) has done to local communities? And we all see Wal- mart as a corner stone of society right?

If I am going to meet someone for coffee for an after dinner meeting or just go out on the town with the wife for the evening I am not going to say "hey let's go over to the Clown's joint for a cup of brew!" I think the atmosphere at a Starbucks is far more pleasant then say the kiddy play ground at the Clown shop. A clown severing coffee just doesn't seem to be conducive to pleasant quiet atmosphere. Most of the time these severs of death have their air conditioners turned down so low you don't want to stay around. They must sell more of there fatty greasy patty's of death to more and more and MORE! So they run you out with a snow storm.

To bad Mikey D's you have really lost me as a customer of your acrid brew. I have always said your brew was good, however it is not getting my dollar anymore. Starbucks is half the size of the Clown shop. Do you dare take on someone your own size? No, it is more fun to be mean today then to be competitive.

The article I picked up from Seattle tells the rest of the story. And even it is basis to a purveyor which started within it's very own city. They could not interview someone who likes Starbucks they had to find someone who didn't like them to go along with the mean spiritedness of the Clown.

Glad the death dealing Clown feels the need to go after the little guy.
Good for you Mr. Schultz for not responding to the Clown.

Please read the link below you will see what I am talking about.
