extremely corporate coffee franchise that is literally on every corner of every block of every major U.S. city. Hipsters and indie types flock there to discuss their meaningless lives and recite poetry.
Hipster 1: Let's go to a coffee shop and read some poetry, but not Starbucks. It's sooo corporate...
Hipster 2: yea. Where should we go?
Hipster 1: Ummm...How about Starbucks?
Hipster 2: Sounds good!

1. The place that made buying $4 coffee more important than paying your rent.
2. A coffee shop that is located in every mall, street corner, and bathroom (and some houses) in America and other countries. Soon to take over the world.
3. A place where no one understands you when you say "Can I just have a medium coffee?"
4. The language of Corporate America.

Random dude: Hey, I'd like to buy this shirt.
Employee: Well, hurry up. This place is going to be a Starbucks in 5 seconds.
Corporate American: I would like a venti half-caf mint-mocha Frap with a double-shot of Fall Blend, no foam.
Barista: That will be $5.38
Corporate American: Eh, less expensive than gas!
Some celeb: Yo, yo , yo homiez. Welcome to my crib. I'd like to show you where the magic happens! THIS is my Starbucks room.

The act of mumbling a name at Starbucks and seeing what they come up with on your cup. A Starbucks employee is trained to never get your name correctly, so Starbucking a great exercise for both the employee and the customer. PRO TIP: For an upgraded experience, incorporate a word that sounds like curse word or dirty word.
Jason got an Americano and today his Starbucking name was Merderfel. Yesterday it was Blumpkimp.
NOVICE VERSION Ex:
Employee, "Okay, and what is your name?"
Customer, "Merfluksjahgi"
Employee, "Merfolgi?"
Customer, "Yes."
Onlooking best friend, "Nice Starbucking, Mefolgi."
*High five*
PRO VERSION:
Employee, "And your name?"
Customer, "Mdhfstittyish"
Employee, "Madtitish?"
Customer, "Yes."
Onlooking best friend, "You worked in titty. That's a pro Starbucking."
*Super dope, rehearsed best friends hand shake*

An evil coffee corporation who's secret agenda is to slowly take over the world until there is a Starbucks on every street in the world.
Starbucks is evil.

Copying the Starbucks™ business-model all across the World on an unprecedented level. Startup companies that has copied the franchise-scheme of Starbucks coffeehouse (small vendors/ neat outlook/ gourmet catering...), are now called 'Startbucks'!
Also, university classes called 'Starbucks studies' are now being taught at some colleges across the United States, too!

Starbucking is so popular in Third-World countries like India and China that these countries started their own carbon-copy Starbucks (complete with that famous green logo), but the Starbucks company is going to open nearly 100 franchise outlets in India by the end of 2007 in retaliation!

The McDonalds of coffee houses. Popular with the masses because of it's convenience of having a location on every corner and sometimes even located inside of other stores. Tries to pass off as a hangout for free-thinking artsy types when it is really an evil corporation that treats it's suppliers in developing nations like trash.
