'The Gentlemen's Rant: Starbucks' Lays Down the Truth
Matt Ho — November 7, 2011 — Pop Culture
For those who remember John Elerick’s ‘Sorry It’s Over’ video, he and the crew have put together a new one entitled 'The Gentlemen’s Rant: Starbucks.'
Chances are you’ve heard people rip on Starbucks for whatever unsatisfactory coffee or service they’ve been given by the franchise. In The Gentlemen’s Rant: Starbucks, the fellas lay out all the flaws, faults and annoyances commonly found by most consumers. Whether the environment is too noisy or a barista has tried selling them a Barbra Streisand CD, it’s clear that these guys really can’t stand what the coffee franchise has to offer.
In addition to The Gentlemen’s Rant: Starbucks clip, there are also other hilarious clips following the same theme, which I highly recommend checking out.
