ºoºThomasclan85ºoº 8 Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 That makes some sense. But then why don't they call the Tall "Dodici", and the Grande "Sedici"? And let's not forget the "rotolo di cannella schifoso".Great, now we're gonna need a translator just to get coffee..... :banghead: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ºoºThomasclan85ºoº 8 Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 I hate to burst the bubble of all the Starbucks lovers, but I have some very disturbing news to share. I just mentioned this in my most recent trip report, but since there may be folks reading this thread who don't read trip reports, I'll share it here. You see this sign? : What's with the two tails on that mermaid? Have you ever heard of a mermaid with two tails? Neither had I. So I googled it. Turns out that is no mermaid. It's a satanic image. I'm not lying- check it out. Stay away from the Main Street Starbucks! TCDI don't mean to question the wisdom of the great TCD ;D but it's actually a Melusine or water spirit/goddess/nymph; I recognized it from a book I have here at home. It may be pagan but not satanic. Her image has been vilified since she was part serpent and that may be the reason you found info saying it's satanic. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ºoºThomasclan85ºoº 8 Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 Oh and there was a stink about the image some years ago. It was considered inappropriate by some people.http://www.propagandamatrix.com/articles/may2008/150508Starbucks.htm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
