I have no problem with the person other than her(?) general ambiguity, and that's just a personal quibble.

The thing that really boils my pee is the fact she is so goddamn happy being a barista at Starbucks. The way she carries on it seems like it was her goal in life to work behind the counter at a lousy Starbucks. She either has the best customers on earth all day long every day(highly unlikely) or she is stoned to the gills on something.

Hmmmm...oddly, that'd make her like the "Have a super sparkly day" girl.

I was going to post about this crap, but you beat me to it.  I see the whole campaign as "Our coffee really sucked because it was burnt, acidic, and overroasted, but we pussified it for you people who don't like 'real' coffee"  

Eff it, I'm going to Wawa!

Speaking of which, that coffee looks like boiled piss.  "Blonde Piss Roast," if you will (it's got a light, pissy flavor).  And yes, Ms. Ambiguously Gay is WAAAY too happy to be working at a Starbucks, especially if she's getting off by serving her customers "Blonde Piss Roast" coffee.

Yes! Very funny.
 
OK, I'm going to go out here on a politically incorrect limb but...
 
not so sure she's stoned to the gills - she kinda looks more like:
 
A few sandwiches short of a picnic. 
 
The light's on but nobody's home.
 
The elevator didn't make it to the top floor.

I generally try not to judge by appearances, but my God - they sure went out of their way to find the most androgynous person they could find, didn't they?

100% guaranteed lesbo, is all I have to say.

You have to wonder... is it Lindsey as in Lindsey Lohan or Lindsey as in Lindsey Buckingham?
 
I bet "Lindsey"  has a sibling  named "Pat."

A few grounds short of a good cup of coffee.

One stop short of a bus ride. 
 
One stroke short of an orgasm.
 
Someone's taken her marbles away.
 
Some mice have gotten into her grain stores.

She has signs by each ear saying "Space for Rent."

She fell out of the stupid tree and hit every branch on the way down.

For all we know though she may have the mind of a mousetrap .. but if she does then she ought to let some of those mice go.

CryThanks tons -  now I have a scalded uretha after expelling 'boiling pee' (my bladder reacts to suggestion now and then - heated up the ol'juices on it's own and just about cooked me from the inside, not unlike an Oscar Meyer hot dog in a microwave, doncha knowConfused...).

You could stand behind the counter as a "Blonde Piss Roast" dispenser at Starbucks!  You are a Piss Roast Percolator!  LOL

Roasts like this are for wusses. You might as well just drink a hot glass of water.

There's nothing special about Starbucks traditional roast, but at least it's not piss water.

They have another commercial with a guy talking about his mother "My son made me this coffee, it's delicious!" 

Now, I have no problem if you're gay, but I had an observation: The guy in that commercial sounds like he could be, and the girl in the above commercial looks like she could be. Is it possible that Starbucks is pushing subconscious pro gay/lesbian support? Not that there's anything wrong with that...

I guess you'd then have to ask the question "Are all the companies that never have any gays/lesbians in their commercials, pushing subconscious pro-straight support?".
