Starbucks now says that time-stamped footage from the store at 6332 N. Northwest Highway does not show any of its workers writing that message. Instead, the note appears “to have been added after the beverage was handed off, likely by someone else,” a spokesperson told Block Club.


Garretson wrote that a relative, whom she later identified as her mother-in-law, ordered the Mint Majesty tea with two honeys — an order known to be Kirk’s favorite drink — from the Starbucks. When the order was completed, the cup had “Loser” written on it, Garretson said.


“I’m talking 5 p.m. today, I want some form of action to the employee that represents this business that wrote ‘Loser’ on my mother’s cup,” the man, who is not seen on-camera, can be heard saying in the video, which was posted Wednesday.

“We’re looking for not corporate bureaucracy. I want immediate accountability; and if not, I will have this whole intersection lined with patriots today, I’m not even joking,” the man told a Starbucks employee.

What an emotional response jesus. Guy sounds like a loser.

    100-com Agree on your analysis and assessment of the psychology behind the industry. I have a pepper spray canister with a lil’ pocket clip and a top that flicks up with the thumb to access the button so its fairly accessible. I wouldn’t be confident using a blade for self defense. Getting a CCW permit for a firearm is fairly obtainable where I live but I wouldn’t be comfortable carrying everyday, having a gun on me would make me so paranoid. Avoiding the situation, escaping the situation, giving up the loot if that means staying safe, absolutely right.
