And we all drink Pumpkin Spice Lattes in the fall!

I don't actually have to be awake for another 25 minutes, but I have unfortunately been up since 4 AM. At least it was just plain light sleeping/insomnia this time, and not random perseverating thoughts keeping me awake. You know what sucks? When you can't sleep. You know what sucks more? When you can't sleep because your brain keeps saying TYROD TAYLOR TYROD TAYLOR TYROD TAYLOR over and over and over. (He's the backup quarterback for the Ravens. No, I don't know either.)

So today I'm going to waste a few moments of my day doing some Pinterest anthropological studies on Starbucks.

My mission - Explore the relationship between hott female users of Pinterest and very pretty sparkly mugs of overpriced coffee.

My method - Use the search string "fall starbucks" to gather pictorial data for analysis.

My analysis is as follows.


An exemplar Starbucks/fall photo found on Pinterest. You can clearly see the hott girl influence in the off-center Starbucks sign, in the slightly-above-amateur photo composition, and in the overall tone and mood of the photo.



This photo is typical of the Starbucks/fashionista relationship in Starbucks fall pins. In this exemplar, you can clearly see the hottness of the female pinner - her legs are lean enough for skinny jeans, her disposable income affords her the luxury of expensive Uggs, and on top of that, she has enough spare change to be drinking Starbucks in the fall. Also note the use of the Starbucks cup as a fashionable accessory for the fall season.


Hott girls also use Pinterest to pin Instagram photos of themselves looking hott while drinking Pumpkin Spice Lattes from Starbucks. These photos are of such importance to hott girls that they pin them in abundance, while other hott girls repin the original photos.


A single pin that most accurately depicts the hott girl trifecta of a hott man, a hott man doing hott things, and Starbucks. Pin description: "He knows how to make her smile. Starbucks and flowers in the fall." Perhaps the intermingling of the hott man with the cup of Starbucks is indicative of the deepest desires of the female heart.


Numerous pins bluntly stated that the season of Fall did not begin until all hott girls had sipped their Pumpkin Spice Lattes. In the above pin, one can deduce that the hott girl love for Pumpkin Spice Lattes is strong enough for some fanatics to dig deep into the bowels of the Internet to find a meme creator to tell the world of Starbucks love. Notice that no watermark exists on the above pin. Perhaps the love of Pumpkin Spice Lattes was enough to induce hott girls to learn how to use Microsoft Paint effectively.


OK, I've wasted more than enough time. Gotta get off my behind and go eat breakfast. And then perhaps drink a Pumpkin Spice Latte... if I can find one.
