Fifty Dollar Frappuccino

keiramarcosThere is a rule in the cafe agreed upon by all the regulars that if you're caught with a Starbucks coffee (no matter where you are) you have to buy coffee for everyone the next time you go into the cafe. There are ten of us. The thing is that I can't complain about this rule because I MADE IT. That's right.
Today, I was at the grocery store getting some stuff and they have a Starbucks right in the store. Really. Right in the store and I rarely turn down an opportunity to buy those chocolate covered graham crackers from Starbucks. They're like crack. Well, I'm in line to get me some of those crackers and the son of a bitch in front of me ordered a frappuccino and it looked soo good and it was so hot outside and my foot kind of hurt so I thought I deserved a treat sort of... so of course by the time I get up to the cashier to pay for my crackers the following comes out of my mouth. "I'll take these crackers and a venti cafe vanilla frap, sugar free, no whip." (Total: $8.26) It just happened. I ordered it against my will. I get one of those little nifty cup holder things to clip onto my cart and I go about my business with my crackers and my frosty coffee thing and for once it was decent. A lot of times the coffee is scorched which is nasty.
You know where this is going, right? I'm in the cereal aisle (What? Cock Provider loves him some Cinnamon Chex) and I hear this click, not unlike the sound of a CAMERA. There is SciFi Writer at the end of the aisle with his fucking iPhone, the horrid hipster that he is, and a minute later I get a picture of myself with a Starbucks cup that has been sent to our entire writing "clique" with the caption: Cafe 1pm. She's buying.
Coffee for 10 people: $42.15
