Is she a teenager? All teenagers are stupid. That may explain it.

thats not good... How old diddja say? 20-30 or 30-40? If she's above 30 then it's really bad, and you should stage an intervention...

I'm proud to say I've never had a Starbuck's coffee or even set foot in one.

It's also "cool" to hate Starbuck's because it's trendy.
Now where does that leave us?

I have to disagree with anyone that thinks starbucks is a quality cup of coffee.
they over roast their beans and there coffee is too strong. all other drinks are loaded with too much syrup.
terrible establishment.

As a long time coffee house resident and accomplished amateur barista I have to agree that Star Bucks is a pretty under whelming attempt at simulating the coffee experience. That notwithstanding, if your sister actually finds Star Bucks to be a pleasing venue for expanding her social circle then give her a break. Everyone needs to a place to go make friends, coffee houses can be good for that. However, if I were you I would encourage her to find a locally owned coffee house populated by a clientele that is a little less mediated by corporate hegemony. Caffeine is the best drug in the world and quality coffee is magic. For the record I have been to a star bucks. While traveling through Texas and in dire need of coffee, theirs was the only establishment I could find. The product was unimpressively prepared by emo uber mooks, however the headache was avoided.
