I just got a cup of starbucks coffee, and now i'm covered in a thin layer of guilt and shame.
I hate going there for all the standard hipster/idealogical reasons...but i also think their coffee is gross...

McDonald's, Starbucks, Walmart, Coke, Pepsi companies (Pizza Hut, KFC, Fritolay), Nike, etc. etc. etc.
Started while travelling 6 years ago - disgusted that you can see the pyramids from a Pizza Hut window.
The list has continued to snowball from there.

Unless your clothes ar made in America, they're made in sweatshops.
All American consumer products are made at low wage factories.
If it were fair, then the world would be on an even economic plane with the rest of the world. And then our health care, education, and gov. services would start to dry up.

I should chime with some more of mine...
Abercrombie - clothes suck, cost too much, only worn by retarded highschool kids
Nike - terrible working conditions, even for sweat shops
von dutch - trucker hats are not now, nor were they ever, cool
Louis Vuitton - for bastardizing Takashi Murakami
McDonalds - if you think for one second that i'm paying $6 for a turd on a bun...
Bridgestone - their ridiculous advertisingi think i could probably come up with more

discovergood story about discover. back in 00 i lost my job and had no income. i was basically living off my discover card. racked up 10 grand. missed one payment so they jacked my rate. in 03 i transfered half the balance, then a qoarter of it to another card in late 03. finally paid off all of it after calling them 4 times over 3 years to PLEASE lower my rate. the phone calls lasted about 5 minutes each. 'i'm sorry sir there is nothing we can do at this time click'.
so in 04 i call to cancel the card. it was a 30 minute phone conversation. they would not let me go. fucking cock suckers. when i asked to lower the rate you fucked me, NOW you will do anything to keep me. they dropped the card to 0% interest as long as i could keep a $50 minimum balance a month. i said no. she said 'sir this is basically cash right now, no interest and no fees, why don't you want this?' i said SPITE BITCH NOW CANCEL THE GOTDAMN CARD END OF CONVERSATION. in 2 seconds the card was cancelled, she confirmed and hung up. haha. never ever again.
