Biz: Old man doesn’t like Starbucks’ unlimited wi-fi for some reason

  • You won’t be able to find a place to sit down anymore if more people are coming in to use their computers. I thought a coffee shop was for drinking coffee.
  • Santa Clarita, Calif. resident Ted Thompson • Getting really angry over Starbucks’ unlimited wi-fi service. See, the problem that Thompson doesn’t seem to understand is that Starbucks is that coffee shops were never about drinking coffee. They all have coffee, sure, but they’re social beasts in nature, plus they encourage people to read the news or play checkers while they’re there. But, with laptops, people don’t have to do that anymore. The social element is online. If you want good coffee instead of a place filled with laptops, try somewhere that doesn’t have wi-fi. Just a tip. And get out of our way  so that we can blog in peace, kind sir! source

Culture: Yo, Harrison Ford, good thing you married Calista Flockhart first

  • See, Julius kind of has a thing for Ally McBeal. And Harrison Ford, erstwhile action star du jour, had been dating her for SEVEN FREAKING YEARS, and had yet to make it official. Julius was all ready to jump in on that action if he didn’t get a ring on her finger. He’s been reading Neil Strauss. He knows all the good pickup lines (but mostly uses the bad ones). Glad Harrison acted – he knows all of Calista’s lines from “Brothers and Sisters.” ALL OF THEM. It’s actually kinda creepy. source
