to the useless, waste of life homophobe who insulted my friend and co-worker by not letting him serve your coffee at the Chapter’s Starbucks 20/07/08, yah, I suppose I’d feel a bit jaded if no one welcomed me to the 21st century too… no reason to advertise your hateful BS- Obviously no one informed you that homosexuality is not contagious you stuuuuuuuupid piece of shit. If I hadn’t been so confused by your asking *me* to serve you regular coffee (while I was clearly busy on bar) I would have had you escorted out of the cafe.

so what did your friend do that so obviously upset the customer?
he could have just been visably gay…god that annoys me! people are SO dumb! what’d he think, he was going to catch it???um, no. just no. some people need to be beaten with shoes.
What kind of shoes hedgy? I think loafers would be appropriate.
so what exactly is visibly gay??? sirens? flashing lights? a sign that sez “hey I’m gay”
or you know, sparkling platforms in a man-size? heheok visably gay- does anyone BUT cyril need me to define this? It’s one of those stereotypes that does indeed bother me, as you may just be a little swishy or a little metro or have very good skin and still totally like the girls…but anyway my point is: a lot of close minded people think you can tell a gay person by their mannerisms or appearence.slight built guys, with nice hair, certain clothes (vibrant colours, skinny jeans, or popped collars come to mind), higher voices, and a certain feminine quaility or sashay are often considered to be ‘gay’. same as bigger ladies who like plaid with short hair are often considered to be ‘lesbians’.it’s not always true, but soemtimes it is- and that is enough for bigots to make assumptions.this post is like a double whammy of bad- this customer made an assumption about their server, and then acted homophobic. both suck, and the person should be beaten with a stilleto or some form of wedge 😉
Cyril some guys are effeminate. Some gals are masculine. Some are so naturally, and some affect it for the shock value.Some people aren’t comfortable with that.
yes, and those peopel need a little shaken-baby sydnrome if you ask me. Seriously, it’s 2008. get over it!
You handled that well Hedgy. I think cyril was goading you into revealing that you too might be close midined and judgemental and you didn’t fall into his trap.
muahaha I’m getting better at thwarting haha 😉
I go to the Chapters Starbucks EVERY DAY sometimes more than once! Every single employee that works there is great! If I had to choose, I would pick them as the BEST Starbucks employees in the city!!! In fact…I put them on top of almost ALL ‘cafe’ employees. They are always friendly and quick to get your specialty drinks made. I wish I could have been there, I would have said something for sure, asshole. 21st century and you still get this kind of foolish closeminded behavior….some of us will NEVER learn. Do not get discouraged by this fuck wad. They are merely a walking talking piece of shit…lot of them running around….I say get out and enjoy pride week…fuck that shit head!!!! Be proud of who you are….they should be ashamed…
