So I went to dinner tonight at Amokka with some friends from uni and we got onto a topic that both intrigued and shocked me. The dialogue went a little like this...
Friend no. 1: "I finally managed to steal a Starbucks mug today, it's taken me so long to pluck up the courage."
Friend no. 2: "Aces! I've never managed to do it but xxxxxxxxx has like 30 that she has stolen over a couple of years"
Me: "So stealing starbucks mugs, is that some kind of freaky English rite of passage?"
Friend no. 1: "You've never done it?! Everybody has a stolen Starbucks mug"
Me: jaw on the floor and a shocked look on my face "you seriously do that!? Why bother?"
WTF!!! Should I jump on the band wagon and attempt to thieve a mug or stick to my small town morals???
Please inform me...does everyone wish to someday own (meant in the loosest sense of the word) their very own Starbucks mug, stolen with care and expertise, lovingly wrapped in the jumper you happened to be wearing at the time?
Tchau (the decision to use a german sign off is becuase my brother has taken to only speaking german on facebook. I can only imagine why but I thought I would embrace the trend!)
