      “I like my coffee BLACK ‘cause I’m a MAN and I equate popular things that I don’t like with WEAKNESS because…because I’m deathly afraid that if I enjoy something different and fun that I might need to engage in real introspection and I’m scared about what I might find.”

          Bro, I drink coffee black(I don’t really love coffee in any form, though, I’m more of a tea or hot chocolate person). It’s my thoughts about people who get all bunched up over people woth weird opinions about pumpkin spice and stuff.

          Don’t get your knickers in a knot.

        While yes, the black coffee fetishists are ridiculous too, Pumpkin Spice Latte is the "Bacon everything is my life!“ dead horse of the 2010s and 2020s that people without anything funny or otherwise interesting to say just WILL NOT shut up about!

        It’s fine to like a beverage. More power to you for knowing what you like.

        However, it’s only funny or otherwise interesting to make a beverage your personality if it’s Tab and you’re Brian Posehn’s character in The Sarah Silverman Program.

          Shhhhh let people enjoy things. Also, very few people are even like that and you can avoid them so easily.

            That was part of what I said 🤦

            very few people are even like that and you can avoid them so easily.

            That’s simply not true.

          It’s a jab at people who foam at the mouth whenever they get mad that someone is having more fun than they are despite being totally allowed to also do the thing if it weren’t for whatever trauma they’re not dealing with.

          I drink my coffee black, too, I just don’t do it because I think I’m a manly-man. It’s actually because I hate the texture of milk or cream and the sugar, to my taste, just exists beside the coffee instead of sweetening it so it’s always awful. I don’t even like coffee that much so it makes no difference either way.

      I though they were her cheeks. She is anxious so her face is drawn in the first image then when she relaxes her cheeks are more prominent because she is happy until caught off guard.

    I am sorry, but PSL is damn delicious. It didn’t taste right last year and there were even some comments on Twitter about it. Starbucks swore they didn’t change the recipe, but I am convinced they were lying. This year, it tastes like it used to. No more sort of burnt caramel taste. Yay tasty beverage!

    Now, go have one! It is ok to like the “trendy” thing. Maybe have them tone down the sweetness. Or find a non-Starbucks version at a local cafe. Or don’t. More for me!
