What Your Dunkin' Order Says About You

America runs on Dunkin', and what YOU run on can be pretty revealing.

What Your Dunkin' Order Says About You
Dunkin' Donuts

Let me preface this article by saying that Dunkin' Donuts is the GOAT. I would say I'm a bit biased because I go there way more than I'd like to admit, but I think many would agree with me on this one. Although you really can't go wrong on whatever you decide to order, what you eventually do end up getting can say a lot about you.

Iced Coffee with Cream & Sugar

You definitely are new to the whole coffee thing, and are probably still in high school. You take full advantage of the fact that Happy Hour starts right at 3 PM, which is so convenient seeing as you get out at 2:45, and it takes just that long to get your butt to Dunkin'. You roll up with your squad and sit at the store for hours gossiping about what Jim did in government class and the latest breakups while sipping your 99 cent medium caramel iced coffees with cream and sugar. You Instagram a picture of your coffee with a donut on top, and get over 300 likes because you're Instagram famous, duh. You have no idea how much sugar is in this cup of liquid gold and frankly, you don't give a shit. You're young and have your metabolism to back you up.

Iced Coffee with Skim Milk & Splenda

You're most likely in college, and Dunkin' iced coffee runs though your veins. After that one large vanilla iced coffee with cream and sugar you used to get almost every day senior year made you want to throw up from sweetness overload, you vowed to never do it again, and decide that opting for the more subtle skim milk and Splenda combo will serve you better. Plus, it's like, healthy, right? This is what you tell yourself every time you hit up Dunkin' for the second (or third, tbh) time in one day. You add a flavor shot whenever you feel the need to treat yo' self, and you sit in the store and chat with your friends for hours, recapping your night out last night and contemplating getting an order of hash browns (which are BOMB, btw) to nurse your hangover. And a bacon, egg, and cheese bagel. And another coffee. #blessed

Hot Coffee, Black

You're a full-blown adult. You most likely get your Dunkin' on your way to your corporate job, and you down that piping hot cup of joy without so much as a wince. I applaud you. You don't need cream, sugar, flavors, or any of that other nonsense to get in the way of the wonderful taste of Dunkin' coffee. In your opinion, it's perfect on its own. You're a no frills kind of person, and you're extremely practical. You throw hella shade at the high schoolers that are packing the drive-thru before they head to school blaring their Taylor Swift at 7 AM. Ugh, youths.

Hot Chocolate

You might be a child that got dragged to Dunkin' because whoever is taking care of you at the moment needed their Dunkin' fix. You might also be an adult with a sweet tooth. Either way, coffee is not your thing. Maybe you felt the need to get something because your Dunkin'-addicted best friend dragged you here before you guys went to the mall to go Christmas shopping. You appreciate the sweeter things in life, and always find yourself burning your tongue because you're overly excited about your delicious beverage.


Frozen Dunkaccino

You and hot chocolate guy are very similar, but you're a bit more mature than your chocolaty friend. You're a people pleaser, and very aware person in that you understand that if you go to Dunkin' Donuts, it's almost an insult to not get some kind of coffee drink. Even though you're not the biggest coffee person, the coffee is offset by the frozen chocolate blend, and you feel accomplished that you did drink coffee, and you did like it. Does this make you an adult now? Probs, at least more sophisticated than hot chocolate guy.

Strawberry Coolatta

You have never been to Dunkin' before and you don't know why you ever came. You hate coffee, you also hate donuts, so you settle on something that looks bright and kind of like a smoothie, but it's really just a slushie. You complain about how the chunks of ice are too big, and ask to see the manager, because you're one of those people. You question why you ever went there in the first place, and the workers gossip about you, saying that none of them know how exactly a strawberry Coolatta is made because WHO ORDERS A STRAWBERRY COOLATTA?! You, that's who. You need to check yo' self.

"Oh, no thanks, I won't get anything. I'm more of a Starbucks person."

You clearly have no taste buds, and I feel very sorry for you. Get off the sacred ground that is Dunkin' Donuts.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
