OH NOES!! B00BIES!!!1111“1
John Keister, where are you? It’s time for some Almost Live!-style ridicule of our southern neighbor, Kent!
Starbucks is celebrating their 25th anniversary, and to celebrate, they brought back the original Starbucks logo, the one with the topless siren (well, close enough — the wording’s different, but otherwise it’s the original logo). But some folks are offended at the sight of the tiny siren’s miniature mammaries, including a school principal in Kent who has asked teachers to cover up their Starbucks cups to avoid poisoning the minds of suburban schoolchildren with the siren’s bare breasts. One imagines the masterpieces of art history that this principal has probably banned from her school as well.
A haiku on the topic:
Starbucks’ old logo
Principal says, “Cover it —
Boobs and school don’t mix.”
Kent is such an easy target for ridicule to begin with….
I’m not sure how much this has been publicized in Seattle, but KING 5 is
running an ALmost Live “greatest hits” show on Sunday nights (9-10 pm)
called “Almost Live: Back At You”. The KING 5 website is singularly
unhelpful as to how long it will be on for, but Pat Cashman (the host)
said in the first episode it will run for “several weeks”. (As long as
they show Uncle Fran’s Musical Forest at some point I’ll be happy.)
Neat. I’ll have to check that out!
