timbeiko.eth@TimBeiko·Dec 28, 2019Replying to @vgrDo you actually like the *brand* or the product? i.e. Boeing seems to have done ~nothing "brand-wise" but has a valuable product.21
Brian Skinner@gravity_levity·Dec 28, 2019Replying to @vgrIt sounds like your real favorite brand is Seattle17
Venkatesh Rao@vgr·Dec 28, 2019Replying to @gravity_levityA coincidence, but I do like Seattle. I think the wife may veto moving back there though 😔
Reclusive Wizard@ReclusiveWizard·Dec 28, 2019Replying to @vgrI think we value very different parts of the coffee experience. Most Starbucks blends taste burnt to me, and the transient work environment isn’t very high value to me most of the time. “liking the brand starbucks” is just so alien to me lol12
