Pure example of the power of marketing to people devoid of critical and independent thinking. Coffee chain whose business model is "what if we franchised the Death Star?" and sells millions of cups of coffee a year that tastes like it was brewed through the assholes of musty cadavers. Usually seen being consumed by soccer moms, overprivileged teenagers, and prissy douche bags who move into already gentrified urban heighborhoods but consider themselves edgy and courageous for living in the city. Just like you can get an elephant to fly if you strap a big enough jet engine on its back, Starbucks sells a shitload of coffee by forcing the idea that coffee should be expensive, shitty, and logoed to the above mentioned people.
I used to drink coffee for 60 cents a cup at my favorite diner but it was torn down to put in a Starbucks. If I wanted to drink that shit I'd microwave some rat turds in vinegar.

People who are prone to tell you how great they are. Fond of touting their robust economy while failing to mention it was built on the foundation of an E.U. welfare state. Think everything Celtic is romantic, special, unique blah blah blah. Sometimes consider the Scotch and Welsh as Celtic kinsman and sometimes exclude them for not not being true Celts (as if Ireland has the only claim). Say they have their own language but unlike Wales, no one can actually speak it and haven;t for years (That makes them posseurs). Their beer is overrated (Beamish is really good, but doesn't have Guiness' marketing) food sucks (this ain't no France) and sometimes call themselves the blacks of Europe (this is especially offensive, yes they were oppressed but is this the equivalent of enslavement? Only a douchebag Irishman would think so). Do have a good history of music (the folk shit gets old but they can boast of Van Morrison, U2, Thin Lizzie etc.) The one factor that redeems the Irish? They can shit in a bag, stamp made in Ireland on it, and sell it to stupid Americans for $50.
Irish-American wannabe: Kiss Me I'm Irish
Irishman: Where you from?
IAW: Boston, Red Sox Rule!
Irishman: (shitting in a bag) Would you like to buy an authentic Irish souvenir?

Scranton is a city in north-east Pa that is, and the only way to describe it, fucked up. Built on coal when that shit is what people used to keep from dying and heat their homes in the winter (even uppity fucks from NYC who think they are a self sufficient planet and could secede from the universe)but has fallen on hard times as has the industry. The people who live there have been festering resentment at everybody while at the same time trying to maintain their dignity and history. Also, it is close to NYC and Philly so intelligent and entrepreneurial criminals set up shop there to take advantage of the situation. What does this mean, Scranton has idiosycrancies that are both cool and weird. Is so fucked up that it cannot be compared legitimately to any other city. And is a place where some kind old granny will fry you up a batch of pierogies with mangoes (green peppers in Scranton) if you ask her nicely, or some meth head will shank your spleen for the last of your warm beer. Was the home of the Molly Maguires, the original gang who fucked up shit old school. Google it sometime.
The urban planning in Scranton is thus: church, bar, church, church, bar, crackhouse, university, bar, church, bar.
