Excellent story. I've done shit like that before too and it always sucks immediately after it happened but it's hilarious in a day or two when you look back on it.

i love the whole starbucks debate. tbh its like $1.35 extra for a much better product, i dont understand everyones aggression towards starbucks.

and i personally think the coffee at Mc Donald's is actually quite good, hence them doing thoes giveaways trying to convince people of this. i only know this because of those free giveaways.

as for you feeling like an asshole? fuck em, they work at Mc Donald's, if they had such high standards they shouldn't be working there.

Not everyone has the option to work wherever they want to. You're incredible naive if you believe that they have a choice.

I'd find it pretty sad if "ghetto" has actually become common slang in the US despite the historical and social connotation of the term.

Oh boy, if that makes you sad...reminds me of that episode of the simpsons where the native american sheds a single tear when he sees a piece of trash blow by in the wind...while behind him the entire town has been turned in to one giant garbage dump. He turns around as the screen fades to black and lets out a horrible scream.

Haha, this thread is like an "actually an asshole" honeypot.

Looking at the people trying to suggest that ghetto is never a bad word to say, the people who called him a tool just for going to an art gallery, me for calling these people assholes...

It's current meaning in slang is directly related to it's historical and social connotations. If there was not historical connotation to go along with it, the word would not mean what it does as of now.

I hope they spit in your coffee. I would have.

How did your coffee taste?

But I am sure you'll be more conscious of what you say now lol, don't worry it happens sometimes.

If I were to work at that McDonalds I would've thought you were an asshole too, and I'm as white as they get lol. The fact that you're basically complaining about having to get inferior coffee that isn't up to your standards is offensive for everyone that works, eats or drinks there.

Still, stuff like that happens every day and most people wouldn't give a shit, let alone make a blog about it. The fact that you're blogging about it saying that you're an asshole means that you do feel you've been offensive. So, be more aware of your surroundings before joking around next time (if you were joking o_O).

Why is he an asshole for saying he doesn't like McDonalds coffee?

Calling something "ghetto coffee" is obviously different than saying "I don't particularly like McDonalds' coffee". I hope I don't need to explain that further.

If going to a free art exhibit with friends and drinking coffee from the most popular coffee chain in NA makes me a tool, then I guess I'm a tool.

That and also that you act like you're slumming because you go to Mcdonalds. It doesn't make you a tool but it's some evidence for it. We'd need more information for a definitive answer. Do you wear snow hats in the middle of summer? Do you force yourself to enjoy soccer so you can be cool and sophisticated? etc.

Do you go to a McDonalds and ask black people for medium black coffee? Are you vegan? Do you visit art exhibits out of free will?
