The Horror! Halloween Extended When Starbucks Rolls Out Green Cups Instead Of Red

Starbucks just released its newest cup right in time for the holidays. And some people are upset.

This past Tuesday, Starbucks announced the release of a new limited-edition cup, which is green and features a drawing of over a hundred people which, according to the company, was drawn with one single stroke. Since it is early early early November, these are not the official holidays cups for the season; rather, they are meant to "create a symbol of unity" during this "hostile time in our country."

Starbucks did not say anywhere that these cups are for Christmas, but because it's November, some people assumed they were. And unlike most people (including me) who did not find this important at all and have lives to live, these people had something to say, because they were offended. Apparently that's kind of a trend right now.

People were offended because these cups, outside of their wintery green color, don't harken any holiday decorations or any symbols of yuletide cheer. Many were so intelligent that they were able to see past the two-dimensional people and into Starbucks' macabre ideology.

And let's not forget this utter gem:

But let's give her the benefit of the doubt. She tweeted this at 8:30 A.M., before she could have her Quad Grande, Non Fat, Extra Hot Caramel Macchiato Upside Down (yes, your barista can apparently make your coffee upside down). Like I said, huntys, they never mentioned they were holiday cups. They typically release their "Red Holiday Cups" every year, and since these are not their "Green Holiday Cups," they will probably be releasing another one and-

Wait!

Hey!

Look at that!

There we go! It's going to be okay. You with the fire in your sleep-deprived eyes, Starbucks heard you loud and clear. Next week they will have your red cups for your Grande Chai Tea Latte, 3 Pump, Skim Milk, Lite Water, No Foam, Extra Hot, and life will be just dandy! So while your peers around drink out of the cups spewing the evil liberal agenda, you can be content knowing that in just a few days you will be drinking out of the good and holy red cups, content that you helped end the war on Christmas before it even began.

It really is the most wonderful time of the year.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
