Starbucks Gets Bitchslapped


Its a War of the Coffee Chains! Dunkin Donuts (the every man's coffee) is giving Starbucks (the white man's coffee) a run for its money:

"...40 steps away from Starbucks, there is a Dunkin' Donuts just 10 days old -- making [the corner of 8th Street and Pennsylvania Ave] not just any corner but the host of a brewing battle: Medium vs. grande. Good, quick and hot vs. Colombia NariƱo Supremo. Metal frame chairs vs. comfy couches."

This is like the coffee version of the West Coast/East Coast rap war! Seattle-based Starbucks vs. New England's Dunkin! To find out which side you would like to support, I recommend taking this short quiz:

1. While waiting in line for coffee, would you rather listen to:
a) mediocre folk-rock music
b) the broken english of store employees

2. While paying for coffee, would you rather fork over:
a) $4.98 for an 8 oz. coffee
b) $2.00 for a 20 oz. coffee

3. When looking for reading material to keep you occupied, would you rather read:
a) The New York Times
b) The little cardboard promotional piece sitting on your tabletop


If you actually took this quiz, you're clearly a douchebag.
