in the last few years it's gone from separate section to every single chain store having got rid of them, good reason to use independent places sure but i miss being able to sit in denny's for 5 hours going through a pack of cigs and 10 cups of free-refill coffee
I'm fine with no-smoking inside. what I was less fond of while there is that you could only do it in designated areas even outside. I spent a few days in tokyo and moved around quite a bit, and I can count on one hand how many areas I saw, goddamn
that was one thing Korea did better than Japan, outdoor smoking is just as frowned upon but if you could find an alley or street corner with cigarettes butts already on the ground it was basically a designated smoking area

here in canada people stand next to 'no smoking' signs outside and smoke.
nobody respects outdoor restrictions (well, they didn't before covid, i still see maskies)
why would i listen to the opinion of somebody who thinks his own sensitive little lungs are more important than the whole planet? i hope you die even sooner
Humans are great apes, are you not a human?
Humans are the only apes that can cultivate crops, though, are you a gorilla that you are that insulted by the idea of cultivating and using specialty cash crops?

there was literally nothing more refreshing in the summer than living on a diet of iced Dutour coffee with a handful of those liquid sweetener things and a few indoor ciggies
You can in the US too, it just has to be a private business, but you can be a cigar store with a really low bar for membership requirements that has a private back room cigar bar for smoking cigars, for instance.
Dunkin was cheap and started out in blue collar Massachusetts while Starbucks was expensive, started in priggish Seattle, and was really pretentious with their fricking coffee that costs you extra because it's made exclusively from beans harvested under moonlight by honduran child midgets and smuggled to the country in a donkey's butthole.
The sign is a subtle joke. The shop is called "Sneed's Feed & Seed", where "feed" and "seed" both end in the sound "-eed", thus rhyming with the name of the owner, Sneed. The sign says that the shop was "Formerly Chuck's", implying that the two words beginning with "F" and "S" would have ended with "-uck", rhyming with "Chuck". So, when Chuck owned the shop, it would have been called "Chuck's Feeduck and Seeduck".
There used to a lot of Starbucks around the time this was made.
I used to live in Abu Dhabi and there was this one mall that had like 5 different Starbucks in it.
the 90s meme about Starbucks' global domination
frick them, they're the reason indoor smoking eventually got banned everywhere in Japan
Why the frick do you care about japanese laws? YWNBJ
because i lived there during the time smoking was slowly banned in more and more cafes and restaurants
it was all starbucks and reddit collusion
Indoor smoking isn’t banned. A lot of places have a separate smoking section though

Are you an ape? Why would you be allowed to contaminate public air?

Those jets don't put that air into people's lungs.

Starbucks is notorious for fricking their francisees over and not caring about density in the cities.
looking back its wierd starbucks caught all the shit when dunkin was doing the same thing for 30 years
Subway does it too, you will see a subway across the street from a subway inside a gas station all the time.
Dunkin was cheap and started out in blue collar Massachusetts while Starbucks was expensive, started in priggish Seattle, and was really pretentious with their fricking coffee that costs you extra because it's made exclusively from beans harvested under moonlight by honduran child midgets and smuggled to the country in a donkey's butthole.
It costs extra because for every purchase, they have to send an extra buck back to their star (of david, if you know what I mean).
ah yes the people who can smell the coffee brewing and the money being exchanged from 3 miles away.
Don't be badmouthin' Dunkin in my thread.
My favorite diner was replaced by a starbucks when there was already a starbucks across the street
hey dawg
The main supermarket I go to installed a starbucks inside the store even though there was already a starbucks in the same shopping center area.
Formerly Peet's
I actually saw this in Salt Lake City around 2002. A Starbucks across the street from a different Starbucks.
The movie Best In Show had this bit about Starbucks doing this. But it's true. It do be like that
Just purchased two gallons of children's urine online for 600 bucks.
Are you Chinese?
