This is just the latest example of a remark that made me actually LOL.
I've been getting the Daily News for years now and I just want the people involved in its production to know they are appreciated.
That's all. Just thanks. 
Cheers,

In fact his username is a typo, he's called Kent Snarkey. He misspelled it, it stuck.

Careful. I have it on good authority that it's really Kent, Clarkey -- and he might not be as nice as the comic-books make out.

OK, this is getting out of hand. I demand that someone tell me I'm an unfunny mean Forth-shill. Or equivalent.

My coworkers were complaining because we ran out of Starbucks coffee and are now drinking Folgers. I can't taste much of a difference between the two and its free! Personally I would rather be hooked on the cheap stuff anyway!

Yes, and Starbucks is like dishwater.

Good dishwater with lots of soap bubbles, or the used water with chunks of food after a long cleaning session?

All coffee tastes like that, so that does not mean so much.

Starbucks is just about all dark roast, which although not inherently evil, often allows cheap coffee to be used (and in their case sold for excessive prices). Unfortunately, Trader Joe's tends toward dark roasts as well; unfortunately, because some of theirs are good and reasonable (others, not so much; don't bother with their Kona, but if they ever have Jamaica Blue Mountain again, it was good and a reasonable price for that, even if not top-notch; and their "Smooth and Mellow Blend" is decent).

True. Sadly my better half likes it. I prefer CBTL.

We don't have Starbucks (well, actually we have only one, fairly recent) in Italy and to tell you the truth, it would be useless here. We have hundreds of cafès and if someone is on the move he will take a coffee directly at the counter (very common) in less than two minutes instead of taking away. It usually costs around 1€ that way, and pastries too, so it's cheap.
While I'm in London though Starbucks is a blessing: London requires an awful lot of walking and while being slightly warmer than the parts of Italy I come from it's also freaking windy and damp. Being able to keep on moving while holding a moderately sized cup of hot coffee is a real blessing from the skies - most of the time I'm not even interested in the coffee itself but anything warm would do. The usual italian way doesn't help as much since the coffee is extremely shorter and the few minutes in the heated cafè are never enough. Also the cities are smaller and more cramped so there is less to walk.

I loved travelling in Italy.
Every time the wife got attacked by a shop there would always be a cafe nearby where I could get the cheapest espresso that generally was better than most restaurant efforts.

That's a general rule actually, restaurant coffee usually is far worst than cafè ones as they usually have less specialized equipment and less trained personnel. It takes several months of training just to get the coffee right for a barman, it's not as easy as it seems.
When you're lucky restaurant coffee is barely drinkable, it's an additional service and overcharged for. Many people wait to get to the nearest cafè after a meal.

Espresso is short but full of caffeine, without the digestion needed by the milk it gives less aftercrash. Makes people jump - which is needed given the usually relaxed lifestyle in Italy.
