OK, if you had a choice, it's early in the morning, you're tired and have got a lot of things to do, so what would you choose?

Starbucks or world peace?

Personally, I’d go for a Starbucks images/smilies/smile.gif

Milk, mineral water, OJ, etc

then it is a coffee shop, so I guess the main reason for going there is the coffee

Can't beat one of those frapachinos (sp.?) with chocolate chips and whipped cream.

Is there anything that sounds like coffee on Starbucks? I never hear the word coffee in the same phrase of Starbucks...

World peace is more realistic for me since there's no Starbucks in my town.

Same here, last time I saw a starbucks was in Singapore and I don't like coffee.

Jostyrostelli · September 6th, 2005, 11:09 PM

Ehh what kind of useless thread is this?

Do people care if I drink coffee?

No, other franchises have already jumped in the market though. To answer your question. I certainly would prefer world peace and so would you if you'd take the question for what it is. Pretty dumb.

Next to come up. What would you prefer. A chewing gum or oxygen ?

No it's not dumb. I think it proves a point and makes an interesting statement on society (think about it) that currently 75% of people would prefer a Starbucks to world peace

I don't think your figures are representative. It's an highly theoretical question and therefore most people will respond lighthearted. Give them the real oppurtunity for world peace and you'd never get such a result.
