Dumb Starbucks. A knockoff of a knockoff knocking off knock offs, this store decided to parody a company in order to get profits. This is an idea I like and dislike because its a kind of double edged sword. In one case, I'm would like to support Dumb Starbucks because I think Starbucks serves coffee with the same care and affection as a mother bear towards a salmon. If it's not apparent with my analogy, I extremely dislike Starbucks because they make the most mediocre coffee out of the other coffee places I normally go to. If Dumb Starbucks makes better coffee then I salute them. However, Dumb Starbucks is riding on the coattails of Starbucks. Like a sled being pulled my dogs, Dumb Starbucks has limited itself to being only less than successful than Starbucks for what it is doing.
I find the whole naming thing annoying, pesky, and low. I only hope their coffee is better than their name.
I'm inclined to agree with what you said here, for better or worse.
