(Los Angeles) - An American has claimed he has never had a Starbucks coffee in his entire life. Not even a sip. The incredible claim comes from Andrew Lawrence, a normal, college educated baby boomer who grew up in New York and has resided in Los Angeles for 20 years. He is a blog writer and is also a contributor to TheSpoof.com.
"What can I say?" states Mr. Lawrence, "I do drink coffee; I like Folger's instant coffee and have no interest in fancy schmancy overpriced coffee that has enough caffeine in it to launch a rocket ship."
Millions of coffee drinkers across the U.S. were shocked to learn of the existence of someone who has never had a Starbucks. One Seattle denizen remarked, "I don't believe it. How else would someone get the boost they need to go to work and then, most importantly, stay awake at work? It's impossible to do it without tanking up on Starbucks."
Nonetheless, Andrew Lawrence stands by his claim. He's even willing to take a polygraph.
He further claims that he plans on continuing his no-Starbucks lifestyle and, in another even more incredible claim, states that he owns a cell phone ... but has never sent a text message!
