At my Starbucks they write my name and then still just call out what kind of drink they made....

You get your definition of Ironic from Alanis Morrisette?

Not irony and also probably not real

Is protesting starbucks cups a Christmas tradition now?
CrazyCatLad
Overly sensitive conservatives are doing their best at making it one.
theonetrueCronos
The actual irony is the Trumpers are protesting against Starbucks by giving Starbucks money. Stupid is incurable.
andrathor
Seems like funny troll.
CrazyCatLad
Let us not forget how they lost their shit last Holiday, err, Christmas season when Starbucks used solid red coffee cups.
BondHaimBond
But why would you want Trump on your cup?
cazdude
Because you like spit in your drink. There is no "win" to be found on either side of this
GeorgeGeef
Because they think they'll "trigger" the baristas by making them write "Trump" on a cup. Seriously.
BondHaimBond
Wouldn't it confuse Trump fans? Barista yells: Trump! and 10 people think it's them.
GeorgeGeef
I don't think they thought it through.
Keearath
I checked out the Twitter page. I feel like it's a troll account.
c4ptch4os
Yes. This is FAKE! Poster was trolling. Please stop being so gullible America.
deadandbloated
Not for at least 8 more years, or whenever he decides to step down and let one of his kids be president.
BabyGabey
Yup. Being this gullible is the problem. It's how we got here. Half of Americans believe whatever they're told regardless of the source.
NotFarEnough
That's false, I read that it's really 30% of Americans believe what they're told regardless of the source

Dumbasses come in all shapes and sizes.

She's a satire writer in Toronto.
makemesmilerightnow
THIS makes so much more sense then. But, not entirely out of the realm of possibility.
TraitorousTrump3
We even voted one as president.
BlackHartMTB
Ironic is trump asking for an apology for free speech, at a play about the author of the federalist papers and promoter of the constitution.

Gave it a look, actually made those tweets, people are trying to appeal her being fired to Starbucks though
KittenK4
It's satire...She lives in Canada and has a separate post saying she asked Starbucks to write Trump on her cup and they wrote "Hilary won.."
PerpetuallyPerplexedPlatypus
...the popular vote
ChancesAreIHateYou
Give it a further look. She never even worked there. It was a joke.
asmallcat
Of course not. They just see the screenshot somewhere else and repost it here, no questions asked.
Mr13ojangles
You do realize that in the comment above they have a ss of the twitter this was posted on? /a/u8urg

Stupid yes; but also the most American
BattloidKouji
huh, that is pretty strange. thanks.
JudgeMentalCat
I believe their goal is to rub their candidate's victory in everyone's faces. Kind of as a political "fuck you" to everyone in the shop
JudgeMentalCat
People at my school do something similar, where they'll go around yelling "trump trump trump" between classes
wanderingsibyl
I think teenagers and kids aren't exactly supporting Trump and just want to get a rise out of people , but these "adults"? Sigh.
JudgeMentalCat
I wish I was joking.

CactusandHedgehogProductions
I went to their twitter page and their bio clearly says that they live in Toronto. Yes, this certainly happened and was not at all a joke
Betanaut
Irony? Like linking a satire account as evidence of some form of political persecution?
OliverClothesoff70
Had this been real, it wouldn't have been political persecution. Any person who spits into the customer's drink should be fired anyway.

Happened in finland too. Girl at the hamburger place got mad when guy wearing '' make america great again'' shirt came in. 1/2
Iglumies
So she tweeted or facebooked she wanted to spit on that guy's burger. The post or tweet or whatever got her fired eventually. It was on news
kuupo
This also happened recently here in Finland, it was all over the place too. A guy came in to burger place with cap that said (1/2)
kuupo
"Make america great again" and a worker there tweeted that she wanted to spit into his burger and bcos of that she got fired. (2/2)

No no no. It's irony, not ironic. She was being steadfast in her beliefs, as strong as iron, a metal. So she is being iron like.

I would argue that this needs more upvotes.

No, that's not something that happens

No, she made it up.

I am almost certain that it didn't.

You are correct. Simple check on Twitter confirms it.
ReverendAurora
People write dumb things about their workplaces on Twitter, companies will fire you for writing dumb things about your workplace on Twitter.
ReverendAurora
It could easily have happened. It may not have happened, but it's easily within the realms of probability.
NotFarEnough
It didn't happen. Girl is from Toronto and does a lot of trolling/satirical joke posts
ReverendAurora
I'm not saying it did or didn't, you've provided a reason which no-one else did. Your "It never happened" is therefore more than simply
ReverendAurora
the usual internet cynicism . I'm much more inclined to believe what you've written.
dotnetbeast
Maybe the fiest tweet never happened, but you never know about the second.
AliBarber
LadyWidebottom
One or the other didn't happen, but I am not sure which is more likely. I doubt both are real.

Spitting in someone's cup isn't free speech. At all. Then again she works at starbucks I don't expect her to have the highest intelligence.

"This is my free speech." Yeah, idc who you voted for, one should feel safe with their freedom of speech. This threat is against that.

She's now looking to share her story of being "persecuted for her beliefs". The belief that it's ok to spit in folks drinks apparently. lol
