A coffeehouse chain originating from the original Starbucks founded in Seattle, Washington State in 1971. Starbucks originally sold only coffee beans and eqiupment refusing to exspand untill it was under new ownership in 1987. It's really the new owners that fucked it up.
Exspensive coffee but it's good, and their workers receive full benefits.
Dude: "You shouldn't go to Starbucks 'cause like someone told me theres these things called free-trades or something and theres this like globalization thing I heard about on the news one time, and Starbucks is bad or something... well, I'm goin' go smoke some more pot now."
Me: "Yes I go to Starbucks occasionally but it's the only coffeehouse I know of where I live and I've never seen a Dunkin' Donuts before in my life."

First mate on the "Pequod" in Herman Melville's 1851 novel "Moby Dick."
"Halloa! Starbuck's astir, said the rigger. He's a lively
chief mate, that; good man, and a pious; but all alive now..."

An surname dating to circa 13th/14th century England. This particular surname is actually a corruption of earlier names, either Starbok or Starbeck. The origins of the name reach back to old Norse 'stor' and 'bok.' Combined these words amount to 'big stream.'
The first record of a Starbuck in the Americas was a one Edward Starbuck, circa 1635. I am a direct decendant of said man, and am therefore a 14th generation Starbuck in America.

A major coffee chain that people obviously think is the devil's brew. Starbucks is apparently 'The Man' taking over the Earth.
Naysayer: "I hate Starbucks! It's turning America into mindless clones!"
Me: "Dude, get over it. It's just coffee. Let me drink my frappuchino in peace."

Luckily he'd only gone a starbuck or two from home before realizing he wasn't wearing pants.

A nice place to go to the bathroom.
I have to piss-between-cars since the Starbuck's near the park is closed.
