The Ad Starbucks Doesn't Want You To See... Because It Sucks.

I generally wouldn't post something so smugly self-serving as this mock Starbucks ad, but I want to point out that there's a lot of money we spend that could be used to send to starving children. But that presumes that charity and welfare can solve extremely difficult political and social problems.

If your metric is merely how many children you could save by not doing something as a first world citizen, there's no point being one in the first place. How many children could you have fed for a week by not buying that black Gap tank top? Or the camera you used to film the mock ad? Or the Evian you calmly sipped between takes? Or your skull full of Bed Head?
