Hey Starbucks workers, If a guy walks in & says his name is "Merry Christmas," I Double Dog Dare you to just write "Mary" on his cup!
+TheDajamster Or better yet -- "Douche".
+TheDajamster that happened, and the person who called themselves that got angry and ranted about it online
+TheDajamster "Mary Crismus"
+TheDajamster They would probably misspell it and write "Happy Hanukkah" instead.
*****
they're just looking for something to complain and be offended about, and not doing a very good job, Starbucks has a terrible record when it comes to tax
It's just a cup, folks.
+srercrcr It's not JUST a cup!...It's a RED cup!
TyrranicFish
It's a Starbucks cup. Since you don't own Starbucks it's none of your business what they do with the cup. "Freedom of......"
+TyrranicFish Christians prefer the blue cup.
srercrcr You don't know. I could own Starbucks.
I could own Mars. You just don't know. I could be God taking a break from all that divine bullshit to troll the CZcams comments. Consider yourself blessed.
+TyrranicFish stfu kid
"Paul Blart: Mall Bro"
I bet the writers took a day off after that solid gag!
+FilmKiln the daily show made a similar comparison. delivery here was better.
+FilmKiln I actually started calling him that several months ago when he first got famous. The guy's not only a douche but a moron.
He sounds EXACTLY like Kevin James as well.
+FilmKiln it was a pretty obvious joke... just like Donald Trump's hair.
+FilmKiln I think Colbert came up with that one on his own, just by looking at the guy.
I literally don't know any Christians that care about this.
+Lumpy Seal i think it's just people that pretend to be christian
+Lumpy Seal They were there the first few days. It was a thing on Twitter for a short time. When the backlash started, I think they went into hiding.
+Lumpy Seal manufactured outrage to serve as filler between the "big things" for news. It keeps people talking, puts money in their pockets, and makes society as a whole a little more cynical each time.
+CALIREADY This falls under the "no true scotsman " fallacy. It's not up to you to decide who is and isn't christian, that's their decision alone. People can do very "unchristian" things to each other, but that doesn't make them suddenly no longer christian. There may be some very bad christians in the world, as there are some very good ones. You don't know what struggles someone is going through, how hard they are trying, or what factors in their lives exist.
The BEST thing that you and I can do is be good people, live our religions the best we can, and love unconditionally. Don't waste your time deciding who is and isn't christian. That's not your job. The one who's job it is commanded you not to judge unjustly.
Ummmmmm obv you don't watch news!
Gotta love how a devout Catholic can still joke about religion.
Coastfog devout Catholics have to. Even recovering Catholics do. it's Gallows humor. It helps to offset the darkness.
Catholic churches are splendidly decorated, Evangelical churches are bland. Is the comedic attachment of Evangelicals towards cheap trinkets simply copium from the boringness of their temples?
Oh my god, I cracked up at "Paul Blart: Mall Bro". I will always call Feuerstein that from now on.
Kevin "Fred Durst" James
I prefer Fatstein personally.
Tbh I call him Paul blart: mall priest but mall bro is pretty good too
+Google stop it Fell out of my CHAIR!!! Evening made!!!!
Never knew much about this guy, but that joke destroyed him!
I hate to see 'Paul Blart: Mall Bro' get any publicity, but this.... this is awesome. In seconds you revealed he is so irrelevant,..... that I forgot why I'm writing this comment.
Mary Christmas?
+Nathan Lunde-Berry The whole of Starbucks management are slapping themselves on the foreheads saying 'Merry Christmas!! Damn! He got us!!!'
+Nathan Lunde-Berry The whole of Starbucks management are slapping themselves on the foreheads saying 'Merry Christmas!! Damn! He got us!!!'
+Tim Clark why are you deleting all their comments???? Lol! Wow
+Tim Clark where my comment go?
I don't think Josh Douchebag is ever going to recover from what Stephen Colbert did.
He shall forever be known as Paul Blart Mall Bro.
Well, it's money saved on designs and extra ink, and the cups can be reused for Lunar New Year, considering how red is an auspicious color to the observers...
+Buenomars just fucking lazy marketing. "make your own story" who has time for that shit? the story is that it will end up in trash no matter what you put on it.
+Buenomars still shitty coffee.
+Type99Arisaka You're such a rebel.
No, just telling the truth. I don't need to be around a bunch of liberals either.
+Ash Kitt I used to, until I found that Starbucks has a larger size for less money! The cheap ass shops around me dont even do a punch card. Over 10 bucks for 2 16oz coffees...no thanks!
Josh Feuerstein, while that idea is incredibly stupid, it's also possibly the least crazy thing I've ever heard you say.
+mariokarter13 and that's saying something.
+mariokarter13 is that the guy who set out a challenge (with prize money) for proving evolution is something goofy like that? He seems familiarly annoying
Tim Clark heh, I knew it!
+ThePharphis He's also the guy that begged Christians on You Tube to give him $20,000 for a new camera then closed his CZcams Channel after he got the money but still records his stupid videos vertical with an Iphone.
He's a con artists of the worst kind but people keep falling for his shtick. He's now offers $10, $20, and $50 pledges per month on Facebook so he can continue his crusade. I'm sure this stunt made him thousands of dollars.
+mariokarter13 HAHAHAHA!!! Right?!?!?!
"Paul Blart mall bro is right"
Nearly died laughing.
I am a Christian and I wasn't the least bit bothered by the cup being plain red last year. I honestly never noticed that Starbucks usually decorated their cups for Christmas until the previous year. I swear, people complain about something that isn't a big deal. It's just a lousy cup that you are going to throw away after drinking your nasty coffee.
Come Easter, let all the cups be emblazoned with Jesus dying in agony on the cross. Very festive!
+Wordavee1 And on Passover we can have morning after weeping parents for the dead first born. Festivities abound!
+Wordavee1 just a reminder, Easter is when Jesus actually rose from the dead. But please don't rebuttal, it's pointless
+Andrew M Nah, Easter is ACTUALLY a pagan celebration of fertility stolen by the Christians.
*****
There is a good chance he didn't die at all, as a side benefit of not actually existing. However even if he did live and die, the timing of his holiday isn't based on records of that death. Easter, as the name so aptly points out, is a borrowed pagan rebirth and fertility holiday. It's fun, we color eggs in my house, and sometimes hide candy, or we forget because spring is busy eh?
*****
Presuming the bible is true, Jesus didn't die. As he is either God or the son of God, he is immortal and couldn't die and is supposedly sitting at gods right hand.
Even after he 'died' he was active in spirt
carm.org/christianity/christian-doctrine/where-did-jesus-go-after-he-died-cross
and reanimated his earthly body a few days later, then continued on to heaven, so how can it be said he died? The earthly body he lived in might have died, but that is hardly a problem for an immortal being.
So all this 'died for our sins' is a load of bs.
The absolute irony of the whole Christmas/Christian debate is that christmas symbols are mostly from paganism as is easter.
Dude......that is awesome! 😆
I don't get why evangelicals are even mad about the lack of a Christmas tree. There was no depiction of there being one in the story of Jesus Christ. Not to mention the Christmas tree is originally a pagan practice adopted by Christians CENTURIES ago.
+Rachel Auguste Jeremiah 10:
"Hear the word that the Lord speaks to you, O house of Israel. Thus says the Lord: “Learn not the way of the nations, nor be dismayed at the signs of the heavens because the nations are dismayed at them, for the customs of the peoples are vanity. A tree from the forest is cut down and worked with an axe by the hands of a craftsman. They decorate it with silver and gold; they fasten it with hammer and nails so that it cannot move. "
- Looks like they aren't even suppose to use a christmas tree lol
+Rachel Auguste Also, consider that if Starbuck's actually had Christian-specific imagery they would receive protest from (A) some non-Christian activists AND (B) other Christian activists, accusing Starbucks of, "Capitalizing on Christ."
It's not all of us. It just seems likes it because the idiots are the only ones who get attention thus causing a name for us all. I left a comment like this on another post, and overnight some idiot replied saying he was a Christian and said some fowl words. It's quite annoying.
Get outta here with your knowledge and reason
As a Christa n, No Christian I know is angry about this.
This is nonsense polemic artificial issue media creates.
Maybe this would not happen if mediaw would not be so interested on what random chrostian guys say at internet.
Starbucks barely lasted in Australia because the coffee is so shit....why are Americans so obsessed? Is the coffee over there really that bad?
+Laura Ryan It's like with Apple - they aren't the best, but they're there, you can find all your friends in there and it's comfy.
+Laura Ryan it failed here because we already have our own coffee culture. i'm sure everyone have their own favourite coffee shop, so we don't need a "brand name" to rely on
oh it sucks here. EVERYBODY drinks Starbucks. it tastes way over roasted and burnt. it's only that nobody knows what actual coffee is here.
People like to go there for their overpriced non fat, soy, decaf, pumpkin spice lattes, prepared at exactly 168.3 degrees Fahrenheit, and stirred clockwise six times. You barely even taste coffee. I'm one to talk though since Mochas are my shit. I prefer Tim Hortons though, it's very popular in parts of New York.
+kuroholic Especially Melbourne who takes their coffee VERY seriously.
as a Christian I face palm about this
I know, people think just not having starbucks cups with snowflakes will make people forget about the most important birthday in history
"What better way to stick it to Starbucks than by telling everyone to go in and buy their product?" One of the single best Colbert lines ever. xD
The ironic thing is Christmas was originally a Pagan holiday.
+Yami dont see any more pagans eh, didnt think so xD
+Assassin K1ll3r Actually, I have met a few Norse Pagans... They tend to be Neo-Nazis. I don't know why.
What im getting at is its no longer a pagan holiday
+Assassin K1ll3r there are a bunch, like wiccans. those ones aren't nazis though.
what im getting at is. christmas is a christian holiday, just like st patricks day, Easter, and valentines day.
... Okay. I'm a Catholic, and I seriously don't understand *why the heck this is a problem*.
Tamaki742 'Murica.
As a fellow Catholic, I think this shouldn't be a problem at all.
I mean, did it ever snow in the bible?
Phloem Pencil Well, considering the middle east does have winters, a little bit.
Have you met Evangelicals?
I can't believe people are actually making a big deal out of this. These places NEVER decorate for my religion, do I care? No. Cause I don't need festivity on my freaking cups.
This is my favorite segment you have done so far
The founder of Starbucks is Jewish. Why should he be forced to put ANY Christmas designs on his cups? He should make them blue and white - the Channukah colors! Hah!
Dear Christians,
There are other religions
sincerely, everyone else.
+Preston Jones Thank you.Happy to see a normal Christian.:)
But Christmas is their holiday. I don't see how snow/snowflakes and snowmans are religious. They should've put some design.
+Preston Jones So lets ignore our own small or big problems because there are people suffering someplace in the world ?! Wth does one has to do with the other ?
Oh how can I be hating on a TV show when there are people dying in Burma... Get the Hell out of here with that logic !
Dear Wes Searles, Christmas is a Christian holiday. And only a few whackadoodles actually care about the stupid cup. Don't generalize everyone in one of the world's largest religions just because one idiot made a CZcams video about a paper cup.Thanks.
Nicole Alice This is CZcams, the place is nearly filled with idiots.
They do realize they're plastic cups that are gonna get thrown away right???
+Lia Łonglegś Good point! I mean, how can you just toss cups or anything else with sacred symbols printed on them in the garbage? It would be akin to improperly discarding of the american flag, right? The blank cups that only hint at Christmas with the color red relieves us of any misgivings.
Josh Fatstein claims they are "desk top decorations" because when I go to starbucks and buy a cup of coffee and leave it on my desk it's because it's a decoration.
0:38: Remember always that Frosty the Snowman melted for your sins.
Who else feels sorry for the Starbucks employees? They’re the ones who really suffer during this BS
When Starbucks took Christ out of Christmas the masses flooded to them and bought there products lol
+dmscimo -_-
Josh Fuckstain is on TV? It's a Christmas miracle!
Stephen, you SO nailed it!! Thank you, thank you.
I'm an athiest, and Christmas is my favorite time of the year.
What they don't know is Christmas is based off a pagan holiday, Yule. Nothing to do with Christ. lmao
Bryanna Wilson Wrong. When Rome was trying to Christianize the Romans, they put the date of Christmas celebration on the same date of the Roman pagan holiday of the Roman Sun God, so that it would be easier to Christianize said pagan Romans. The date is pagan, but the celebration is not.
As to the date, you are right. The Roman Catholic church in it's infancy set the date around the Saturnalia. However in the countries of North European, Scandinavian heritage all the traditions are Nordic, Germanic. Specifically the Yule of pre-Christian worship which celebrates the rebirth of the Sun at Winter Solstice. )O( Peace n Love
I live in Australia and I can assure you that snowflakes, snowmen and the song "white Christmas" are not indicative of the season. Neither is coffee. They are a horrible ironic joke.
+Chaos-Blades Well, I'm in Florida and snowflakes aren't indicative of any season here. Christmas may technically be winter here, but it can still get uncomfortably warm.
Primalxbeast
Then you feel my pain too. Might be a bit hotter here though, but I live in an actual desert so that's my own fault I guess.
Chaos-Blades It's more like a swamp here.
Not when you live in New York. Then it's more like praying for a Christmas in which you don't get trapped in your house due to blizzard conditions.
+Chaos-Blades yeah never got christmas in this country. can't we at least re-theme it
I almost fell off my sofa laughing when I watched this on TV....HILARIOUS!!!
The Drunken Peasants made fun of Josh Moronstein before it was cool...
+LazarheaD You're garbage, Lazar #BanLazar
And now Colbert is getting involved in the indivijul Josh Feuerstein situation.
Bailie Boo Colbert is attacking Josh's family in this particular situation. He's showing himself to be quite an indivijul.
"What better way to stick it to Starbucks than by telling everyone to go in and buy their product."
Stephen Colbert you are my hero and I want to be just like you. Please take me under your glorious wing and teach me your ways!
+aricars6263 you kiss your cousin with that mouth?
+Andrew Frye That was somewhat gayish, and that's coming from a gay dude.
+Dathotness4ya if your gay then why perpetuate that being gay is a bad thing?
+David Blaine I'm actually not gay. You are probably gay tho. The closet must be getting lonely
+Andrew Frye didn't you say u were???
With the baby boomers hitting their senior years, we are seeing the "War on Christmas," among other issues, being taken to levels unheard of. If you thought the state of mental health was bad before, just imagine what we are in for when you have one of the largest demographics suffering from dementia and going senile all at the same time!
For better or worse, a large chunk of this generation will be passing on soon. While it may be unfortunate that most of us will lose loved ones, we will be able to make social progress without pandering to people who believe that a corporation's decision to celebrate Christmas in a more minimalist way is some kind of socialist conspiracy.
"Paul Blart: Mall Bro." lol.
Did I just watch a King of Queens Christmas special?
This bit will probably be relevant for years.
Not only he look like Kevin James
!!!
He even sounds like him Kevin James
!
Paul Blart...mall cop ROTFFLMFAO
I love how Colbert just does whatever they tell him too.
"Here, drink from this cup strapped to a tree."
3:19 goota check my pulse... yep, I'm dead.
Did you know that Feuerstein means "Flintstone" in german? Kinda fitting I think. I allways have the feeling Josh is stuck in the stoneage.
Well done Stephen,that showed them how to decorate a Christmas cup...
my mom manages a Starbucks. she told her workers when they're told someone's name is Merry Christmas, to just write the first name, as that's what they're supposed to do. so men were getting upset that their cups were coming back with "Mary" on them.
Secularization and Christianization are serious things, just sayin.
People will see Starbucks' new move as either inclusive, or outright syncretic.
"Why does it says David?"
I'll be taking that, thank you!
Am I the only one bothered by how the guy in that video has a cup of tea and not coffee?
Christian Smith that’s what bothered you about the guy in the video? His tea?
"Paul Blart; Mall Bro." HOLY FUCKING SHIT :) :)
Joshua moronstein is my favorite character
Josh Fatstein - I tricked you starbucks!
Starbucks CEO - OH SHIT NO!
Clever marketing tbh, it wouldn't surprise me if starbucks had planted those 'angered' christians. It makes it appear like starbucks is a victim to this exaggerated 'outrage'. It Cleverly makes every sane person agree with them 'its just a cup', and emotionally ties you to emphasise with the brand.
I don't buy it starbucks, go back to your tax dodging ways ;)
My mom actually went to school with a woman named Christmas. I bet if she walked into Starbucks and said her name, they'd roll their eyes thinking she's one of those "red cup" nuts, but it's her real name lol. "What's your name?" "Christmas." "sigh... alright, ma'am." "No, it's my real name... sorry..."
That dude is a con artist. You shouldn't give him the air time, even in jest.
Honestly if that guy came into my store and said his name was "Merry Christmas" I would've just put "Happy Holidays"
This problem was a prime example of first world problems. Get your panties out of their twist and deal with a cup being a different color.
"Paul Blart, mall-bro..."
I love you, Stephen. Never change.
Could be worse. At least they're not bombing Starbuck
+gwright138 Or decapitating baristas.
This is funny because it sounds exactly like what these religious nuts would do. They actually sent out bomb threats to a sitcom filming set just because they didn't agree with the plot lol These religous nuts are real busybody snowflakes..
Amen Brother Stephen! Jesus should be on everything! Everywhere!
Paul Blart mall bro!!! 😂😂😂😂
When he said "Paul Blart Mall Bro", I actually laughed my balls off.
Oh, I forgot; Happy Holidays everyone!
LOL this was so good and clever...."Paul Blart Mall Bro" hahaha rofl
I actually thought that guy was Kevin James at first lmao. Paul Blart: Mall Bro was brilliant 😂😂😂
2:13 Something rather nice & soothing about Stephen's voice there. Like he is doing the VO for a Smucker's commercial.
completely lost it when he said "Paul Blart: Mall Bro"!! lmfaoo
The red cup represents the blood of Christ. Without his shed blood we would all be condemned. The blood, The blood, the blood!!!
that dude must be feelin reaaaalllll smart right now
Its Christmas in summer in Australia, Snowman my ass for Christmas
Wow, that cup redesign really could not possibly have gone better for Starbucks.
Josh Moronstein is a character at this point. It's comedy gold.
PAUL BLART MALL BRO OH MY GOD THAT'S PERFECT.
Omg they showed a clip of Joke Fuckstain. My life is complete.
So going forward my name at Starbucks will be "F The Lord". Thanks for the suggestion, dude.
Last time there was this much commotion over a cup.
Two girls were involved.
PAC 😭 I’m dead 😂😂😂
Probably shouldn't put this one here for risk of opening a big, ugly can of worms-but in reference to recent events, a friend of mine had me roaring with laughter by pointing out that "If you are one of those people who was flipping out over a coffee cup this time last year, then you really have no business telling anyone else to just 'get over it.'"
I'm not even mad at these people. The guy telling the people that his name is "Merry Christmas" just made my day.
PAUL BLART MALL BRO IS THE BEST SLAM
Lets keep the Saturn in Saturnalia, folks,
Those little snowman donuts are my new best friend … but spoiler alert … who foresees mid-season change. OMG!!! CAWFEEEE:)
Nothing says protest like giving your money to the company you're protesting against. Paul Blart is brilliant!
Fast Forward to 2016 with the new cup 'protest'
03:40 who remembered VVS (Vertical Video Syndrome)? lol that video was hilarious
That balances out all the church bells heard in a 10 block radius EVERY HOUR.
Red and Green? Obviously Starbucks is celebrating Magic: The Gathering! They're declaring war on players who use White, Black, and Blue in their decks!
“Mary” Christmas? They never spell your name “Right”!?!?! 😂
Ordering at SBX be like:
Barista: "And what's your name?"
Customer: "Adam"
**Barista writes "Taylor" on the cup**
**Minutes later**
Barista: "I have a Venti Carmel Macchiato for La'Quesha"
#DaFuq?
I died when the Christmas tree came up. 😂
The standards for admissions at some seminaries are disgustingly low, although Paul Blart, Mall Bro is an EPIC burn. Stephen Colbert RULES.
Jesus - 'love God and love people'
This guy - 'unite against the end of our favorite pagan decorations!'
I'm really seeing the connection here.
Late Night with the Colbert Report :) I love it
0:40
This might be the best joke Stephen has ever made and trust me, there's some tough competition
Starbucks must have started adding salt into each customer's cup.... ;-)
Starbucks barista: Grande pumpkin spice latte for "Mary Chrisman"
ey I told starbucks my name is Merry Christmas this morning.
"Ventie his rage", I spat coffee out my nose.
"Paul Blart Mall Bro" I lost it lol
