So you really think going home in the middle of the day *to make coffee* is reasonable for everyone.

Not for everyone. But for some people, it might work. You're also assuming that everybody is already out before they have to go out. What if they leave home later in the day? Or are home before they go out?

everyone should just carry a battery, keurig, water, coffee, and a cup on them at all times

All we were saying is that before they went out, they were probably somewhere. And they probably could've made coffee where ever they were...

Yeah and I said that's a dumb and irrelevant argument I'm glad we're on the same page.

I didn't want a hot drink before I went out, because I wasn't cold then.

Basically, all we were saying is that some people probably do have the option to make it at home and don't. What you said earlier kinda sounded like you didn't think that was even an option for most people...

Starbucks is...... just okay. They really over-roast their beans, which makes their coffee taste pretty bitter. But sometimes I honestly don't mind that.

There are worse places to get coffee. But usually I'd much rather just go to some place like Caribou. If I'm just sticking to the big chain shops.

Never even been inside a Starbucks. Never even had a cup of coffee.

barista's wouldn't know how to make a proper hot tea to save their lives. They just assume you put a tea bag into hot water and call it good. Which sucks because tea shops are basically non-existent in my neck of the woods.

To be fair, to make proper tea would take some time. Not everyone going to Starbucks is going to have that time to wait.

I had to look it up and yea, barista is basically someone who makes coffee drinks. Starbuck's barista might not go to the extent others do in other coffee shops but I do not see any inaccuracy in using that term.

So everybody who makes coffee at home is a barista.

Technically not wrong. One could have a party at home and someone could be the unofficial bartender of the party as well even though it's not really a bar. Though per the Wiki, a barista might be specially someone who prepare coffee, espresso, etc. at a coffee shop.

You could have a bar, though.

I also want to point out that I made this topic before I found out about the other Starbucks thing.
