Went to Starbucks today. In front of me were 4 men, behind me 2 dudes. The 4 men in front of me ordered iced mocha latte, iced caramel latte, iced latte and iced frappucino with whipped cream. Very cute!

The two dudes behind me ordered iced latte with cream and iced caramel mocha. Awesome! What kind of real dude orders iced caramel mocha with whipped cream?

Anyway, even though I was there with a date, I got tons of "wow, you're so darn cute" and "wish he were mine" looks. I rock!

You're not a man, man!

Oh, it's true, certain unmentionable Floridian poster.

It's damn true.

I'm starting to have my doubts about you being Lee Hyori as well...

OP, why do all your posts sound like you are trying to deal with the trials and insecurities of puberty?

May I get you anything? How 'bout a nice frothy iced caramel mocha latte with whipped cream and cinnamon generously sprinkled on top of that?

Come on! This thread about K dudes ordering weird stuff and gettig away with it.

Jesus Christ. M-su's persona is a satire. I hope and pray it is.

They love the fancy drinks here, more so than regular coffee. Back home I always feel embarrassed to order a whipped-cream caramel concoction, it makes me feel like a pig, but here everyone else does so it's not a big deal. and i'm a girl!

I've been to Starbucks many times. Never yet have I tried anything but coffee of the day/week. Some of the others look tasty though.

What kind of panzy takes notice of the 6 guys around him and what they order at a crappy fast-coffee chain while hes on a date.

Are you more interested in dudes and coffee than girls?

OP how about developing a double personality to add to your self-loving one. I'm thinking a version of Mother Teresa and Gandhi!

Tea is 4400 won?

All it is two tea bags. (That's what she said)

And yet I still buy it.

Also, anyone notice the menu only has like10 items, or is it just the ones I've been going to?

I order my coffee with a couple of shots of soju. That always impresses the ladies.

Starbucks are hit and miss. Coffee Bean do much tastier creamy thingies. And yes, I almost always have a special drink. I can't handle regular coffee, it messes with my heart rate.
