My RSS reader picked up a pretty funny story today about Dunkin Donuts. Apparently Michael (aka Cosmos) has had a love affair with Dunkin Donuts that was ended today.
Here is his post:
Dunkin Donuts, you and I are finished.
I know it’s always been a tenuous relationship. I’ve long known that the delicious smell wafting out of the building will never be matched by the taste of any of the baked goods within. I know that, at this point, donuts are a sideline item for you, and that Fred the Baker is gone, his duties long since shifted to some assembly line.
I know I’ll always be in line behind a construction worker buying 11 coffees for his coworkers. I know if I buy my special (Mt. Dew and a donut) and hand you exact change ($2.30), you’ll count it, then ask me if I want anything else. I know the mathematical formula by which the hurry I’m in is directly proportional to the number of people in front of me buying egg-and-cheese sandwiches.
And I’ve long known that I hate your coffee. Seriously hate it. Honestly, I wouldn’t drink it if I were having a coughing fit in the desert.
But this was the last straw. My soda was flat and my Boston Creme donut was 90% cake and 10% cream. It takes a special kind of determination to eff up a donut and a soda.
So thanks for everything. It’s not you; it’s me. Actually, that’s a lie. It’s you.

His name is Michael, actually. And here’s the link to the story since it’s not noted in yours:

Sooz, thanks for letting me know about the link. I’m not sure why my link didn’t work - very strange; and thanks for letting me know his real name. That was a great story!
I love dunkin donuts coffee and go there almost everyday…however I have finally had it with your store at 11657 Beach Blvd in Jacksonville and will never go there again. The staff is worse than horrible and there doesn’t seem to be anyone in charge. Just a few kids who don’t have a clue. I’ve noticed that the traffic in and out is down alot…(not that it helped the service) so I guess everyone else is getting fed up as well. I will go to Dunkin Donuts again, just not that one ever.
