Coffee dreams

Everyone loves a dig at a huge American conglomerate (and I'm no exception).
Starbucks has become much more than just a coffeeshop, it's a lifestyle choice, and thousands of willing Brits have signed up to an existence defined by over-priced coffee, blueberry muffins, and tapping their feet to the latest Nora Jones record. This is the Starbucks life, and to be honest, it's a damn site better than the reality for most people. Maybe us lefties should just let them have their caffeine-fuelled dreams, and stop bitching?
