By least effective troll, I mean, they are invested in the topics they troll on so can be very easily counter-trolled. OMBad will bite at any bait. Also, they are well known, so nobody ever assumes they are arguing in good faith. If their goal is to piss people off, or sew division, or muddy the waters, or make Slashdot unappealing, they have failed miserably. If their goal is to look like an ass-clown, well, they sure can manage that.

Did you have to go ask for permission from your handler to post that, lol?

Yes, that's why I call them milk dealers. The coffee is just a milk flavoring.

It's weird, too, like, I can enjoy a nice French roast. Even an Italian roast, in a latte. I don't know what Starbucks does to the coffee they brew in store, but the stuff they sell in bags tastes nothing like it. That stuff is properly roasted, usually no darker than a full city roast. The in-store stuff, especially the plain brewed coffee, is just nasty.

You won't say it! Holy shit I just lost a bet.

Spoiled westerners? That sounds like something a Chinese asset would say.

Look, just write "I have a concrete plan to murder Xi Jinping, and I will carry it out next week." Then I will know you aren't Chinese, and you can continue trolling.

It's not hard. Any actual westerner would not be afraid to write that.

I dunno, I just asked him to state that he'd murder Xi Jinping, who definitely looks like Pooh Bear, and he hasn't responded. You may be on to something!

See, I do think you are American, but plenty of people here think you are a Chinese operative. If you are American, type something like "President Xi Jinping is a criminal and I will murder him while he sleeps. Also, he looks like Pooh Bear."

You think OMBad is a Chinese operative? I'd think the Chinese could hire better people than that, the guy is a joke. Least effective troll on the site, these days.

Not sure that's an improvement, to be honest. Nestle is worse on all counts than Starbucks, and those little plastic pods are terrible for the environment.

Oh, they know coffee. But they are not in the coffee business. Their CEO has said outright that they are in the flavored milk business. Over roasted coffee is great for flavoring lattes and cappuccinos, which is their real business.

Seems like you are the one who is unhappy, you troll. Why don't you leave? Oh yeah, no place will have you.

The CEO himself says they are not in the coffee business, they are in the flavored milk business. They brew their coffee too strong and too bitter for it to be enjoyable as plain coffee. It is designed to be made into lattes and cappuccinos.

Union workers are paid, on average, about 11.2% more than their non-union counterparts. Yes that is counting union dues paid. Also, that is not counting other benefits. Union workers are more likely to get paid sick time, for example.

No seriously, go anyplace but Starbucks. You'll be doing yourself, your wallet, and the American working class a favor.

Read any forum for retail investors. Everyone was quite surprised, no one was talking about it until it was a done deal. Contrast that with the forums response to GameStop or AMC.

From what I have seen, most regular media outlets regularly spread disinformation about retail investors and meme stocks to help manipulate the market.

I am not invested in any of these stocks personally, I am just fascinated by retail investors response to blatant white collar crime. As they say in the forums, "Hedgies r fukd." The idea of rich hedge fund managers going broke just tickles me pink.
