Prince Song Playing At Starbucks

I went into Starbucks today (as I usually do), and as soon as I walked in the door, the Prince song, "The 1 U Wanna C" started playing. It was like it was perfectly planned. I waited to see if the next song from the CD would start playing after "The 1 U Wanna C" finished, but it turns out that it was just that one song. Still cool nontheless.
RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you.

That happened to me a couple weeks ago. I walked in just as he yelled, "Comin' on you like thunder!" doh! lol
We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

I hate to say this, but it's just dumb to talk about each and every time you hear a Prince song playing in Starbucks. "Why dumb-bunnies gotta act like erry-one wanna hear about they Bapes-n-shit!"

Well, if you "hate to say this", then why bother saying it, just to be negative? Hearing the Prince song at Starbucks made my day, and your negativity is not going to change that. Save your negative comments to yourself, nobody wants to hear them anyway. You're not going to rain on my parade.

Agreed, it would be cheaper to make yourself some at home. But I know people buy it for convenience too. It's easier to go out and buy it then to make it yourself.

I think its easier to make it yourself.
Its may just look confusing to people or the cost of a decent espresso machine may be prohibitive.

I thought the same a while back (about it looking confusing) until I worked at a coffee, shop...It's ridiculously easy to make an espresso...

We're somewhat on topic lol
