    The people lining up, instead of parking and taking 5 mins to go inside, are terminally stupid. I encountered this the other day, and I was out the door with my coffee before the line had even moved.

      Wasn’t that a covid thing?
      With that being said, there is no way i would’ve waited there when i saw 3 or more cars.

        No, I see it happen in my hood. Sometimes the overflow blocks oncoming traffic too and that’s when you have to actually honk at these utter fuckwits.

      Are you by any chance telling them to walk on their legs?

      It’s a catch-22 though. Like, if I get out of my car for 5 minutes with it off then it just heats up to 1000 degrees. I get that the idea of quickly going in and walking out is nice, and I would honestly prefer to not have it at all (yay for just making coffee at home). However for us in incredibly hot climates it isn’t something I ever try to do. It’s 107 out today, 5 minutes with my car off turns it into like 135 on the inside. Of course all of this just adds more to emissions. Which is all of the problem….

        My car I bought recently has remote start. So I can turn it (and the AC) on right before I’m about to leave. A minute is enough for it to start blasting plenty of cold air.

      This was during Covid social distancing, probably right when Starbucks was allowed to open back up.

      Many coffee and fast food restaurants around where I live closed down internal seating around covid and still haven’t opened the backup now due to staffing issues. Terminally stupid my ass.

        Equally terminally stupid your ass, because you can make coffee at home during highly infectious outbreaks.
