It made me laugh. It also reflects the saturation of American food chains the world over. Very deep.
EDIT: Hello newsletter readers. I expect a lot of you are fellow b3tans who just passed this winning entry over without a woo, or even a yay. I bet you are sorry. Really, really sorry. Okay, probably not.

that's one of the few entries I've seen that have actually stuck to the challenge subject/managed to be funny.
This challenge has allowed so much un-related (un-funny) spam. It's annoying.

£1.55 for a shot seems slightly expensive to me. (Doesn't stop me though).
Starbucks may be partly responsible for educating Britons and others to the joys of 'proper' coffee, but it's still the McDonalds of coffee shops, ie its offerings are grey, bland, plasticky tasting and globally irresponsible. Go to to Costa's, go fairtrade, go to Paris or Milan and actually enjoy your caffeine hit. (Rant Over.)
