Machines II : Starbucks' Conspiracy Theory

Blogging is fun. At times, it can be addictive. To the extend that we (me and fellow blogger/friend/wanker/ulu jungle beast Ben) would fork out RM10++ for a cup of drink at Starbucks, sit our asses down there the whole day (yes, until they close the shop) and just blog our heads off. At least I would still download music and all that, but still RM10++ per session is cut throat, and uneconomical. Through out my visits there, I realised a shocking fact. The Starbucks logo is actually inspired by the painting of Mona Lisa, where people claim that as you stare longer and harder into the face of the lady, you can actually see her gradually smile wider. And I can see her smile is getting wider day by day.


Day 1:
Wan Yean: The reason why I'm here and you're doing my business is simply because you've got high speed internet connection here. By the way, pleasant smile you've got, lady.
Lady: Enjoy your drink, sir. (You have no idea... hahaha)

Day 2:
Wan Yean: Boy, your frappucino is sure addictive! Oh, lady, is there something different about your smile today? By the way I do enjoy your beverages!
Lady: Enjoy your drink, sir (Yes.. fork out another RM10 for me! Hahaha..)

Day 3:
Wan Yean: Man I am so in need of another caffeine shot! Give it to me QUICK! And your smile, lady! I think its getting broader day by day! Or is it because I ran out of caffeine in my blood and I start hallucinating? QUICK! Another shot!
Lady: Enjoy your drink, sir (HAHAHA... You fool.. That's because I'm emptying your pockets!)

Day 4:
Wan Yean: Can't... li... live... w.. without... Starbucks... Help... It's evil... *faint*
Lady: Enjoy your drink, sir! (Now you are totally powerless! SUBMIT! PAY UP! MAKE EVERY DRINK A VENTI! WAHAHAHA!)

Sinful addiction. And expensive. Then why the heck am I here again? Save me, Coffee Bean!
