How it works:

Extraordinary things can happen when we ask extraordinary questions. This blog asks extraordinary questions in the form of outlandish statements. Sometimes I believe what I've posted. Sometimes I don't. This is not a blog about my political, religious, or philosophical views. It's a blog about thinking in different boxes or outside of the box altogether. Have fun. BRING FRIENDS!

Premise the 30th - Venti, Venti, Grande

Premise: Let's be honest. MOST of the Occupy Wall Street protesters are people who spent the 90's playing a lively game of "Venti, Venti, Grande" and then one day woke up and realized that $4 for a cup of coffee is fucking expensive...and now they are blaming someone else for their withdrawal headache.


Assignment: Argue for or against the merits of this premise, using logic, sound reasoning, and where possible, citations (links) to back up your arguments.

Caveat: You need not take the side that you actually believe. Sometimes arguing the other side is more fun.

GO!
