Ahhh... morning coffee. They have unlimited free coffee here at the training center, but this morning I opted to head across the street and buy a cup of Starbucks coffee. The free coffee at the training center is somewhat bland, having approximately the same quality as Gas Station Coffee. Basically just a coffee pot next to a pile of styrofoam ( Read more... )

Starbucks coffee is overly-compensated, cushy, and thus complacent. Gas Station coffee pulls out the win with the help of its trusty shank and crowbar. might even leave with Starbucks' liver in a cooler, should time permit.*

I might agree if it were a standard rank-and-file Starbucks coffee. But this is a "be all you can be" special forces Starbucks coffee.

Usually these Starbucks tend to be better armed and armored, and I'm not sure Gas Station Coffee can win this type of battle head-on.

For Gas Station coffee to win, it's going to need to rely more on its smarts rather than brute force.

Gas station coffee, hands down. See, Starbuck coffee is always freshly brewed, so while delicious, it's soft. Gas Station coffee sits in the pot for hours, biding it's time, taking on a tar like consistency which makes it able to absorb attacks and not spill across the counter. By the end of the day it's just a gelatinous ooze, creeping about and being all sneaky like, while starbucks coffee has been dumped down the drain.

So yeah, definitely Gas station brew.
