I promised myself I’d never post about anything controversial on here, but…It’s a cup.
I work hard to make sure I’ve got the necessities and plus a few extras. There are important things in life worthy of getting upset about, and then there are the petty annoyances like customers behaving badly and chilly rainy days deserving of a complaint here and there. I got home the other day to find the Internet in an uproar over the color of a cup. A CUP!
Is this what we’ve become? A nation who whines and loses it’s marbles over a cup?
For those who are wondering what the heck am I talking about, Starbucks recently released its special holiday cups. Instead of the regular festive designs, they opted for a minimalist approach.

Look at those evil cups. They’re up to no good in their plain red dye! The nerve of them. They are the battalion commanders in the War Against Christmas. The ironic thing is that Starbucks still sells its Christmas blend coffee beans as Christmas Blend.
Elly, Jadelynn, and Major Pierson are all enjoying a hot beverage right now (well, Pierson is stuck on Pluto, so he doesn’t get to dip into the daring blue Yule cup the empire released for the holidays). Elly and Jadelynn are staring at their bold blue cups. The only controversy there is the fact that they want more!
