Playing God today with my imaginary magnifying glass.
as i exited the freeway early this morning, i was thinking to myself how wonderful of a location starbucks had with it's proximity and visibility to/from the freeway. and then i thought to myself..if i had THE magnifying glass for the day...which ants would i burn first. and i decided i would get much enjoyment starting with that busy starbucks. now, don't get me wrong...i enjoy starbucks coffee just as much as any other schmuck that doesn't understand the what true yuppie coffee is all about, (i think we all simply just find it fun to call out those fancy names: double tall non-fat w/whip white mocha (my dirty little secret)) but you can't deny the enjoyment one would get with being the sole person responsible for closing said busy starbucks for one day. now, before you go into premature caffeine withdrawal and start frothing (your own version of foam topped lattes) at the mouth, keep in mind this would only be for one day. (and you could simply race down the street to the starbucks on the next corner to get your fix): I would close starbucks for the day and simply plant my happy ass in a lawn chair across the street and watch as the chaos ensued. i mean, cmon...how funny would that be to see people shaking the doors to the ole bucks wondering what's going on...trying to get in..( just like those old people do when Country Kitchen closed for remodeling in a particular episode of southpark.) they would all lay down on the ground and start convulsing, screaming, and crying. Well, maybe not that extreme...but damnit...you have to admit, it sure would be funny to see! Anyway...that's what i would do if I had THE magnifying glass for the day.
