This is off-topic, just for fun, and completely voluntary.

Ground Rules:
1. Nominate a famous actor/actress, character, or TV personality. Provide YouTube and video clips, and a list of memorable quotes. Extra props if they make sense in a Starbucks setting.
Nomination period: Monday 12AM Eastern to Thursday 11:59PM

2. Vote for the best choice out of the nominations.
Voting period: Friday 12AM Eastern to Sunday 11:59PM.

3. Nomination with the most votes wins. Start quoting that person all week long! Nomination and voting cycle restarts on Monday.

God knows we need the entertainment at work. BONUS: If you visit a different Starbucks, and some barista is quoting the favorite character of the week, you know s/he's been reading IHateStarbucks.

Let's start with a no-brainer choice: Nicolas Cage.
Why you should quote him: The Wicker Man
Nicolas Cage Losing His Sh!t

How you can use his quotes while working at Starbucks:
Nicolas Cage: [points to wax paper in oven] "How did it get burned? HOW DID IT GET BURNED? HOWDIDITGETBURNED HOWDIDITGETBURNED?"
Nicolas Cage: [hands out honey packets] "Not the bees! AHHHHHHH Ahgarbulagabah my eyes! my eyes! AHHHHHHHH! AHHHHHHHhhhurgh!"

I vote that you lose internets for nominating Nic Cage, and that you lose some more for nominating anything from Wicker Man.

Lafayette: "Betch, you come in my house you gonna eat my food the way I fxcking make it!"

Oooh! Sounds like fun :)

Okay, I nominate:
Lt. Raine (Brad Pitt) from Inglourious Basterds.

The Quote: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DdPrMxFgLUo
"You know somethin', Utivich? I think this just might be my masterpiece."

How it applies to Sbux?
SO many ways...my favorite though?
The distraught customer screaming in the background as I purposely take entirely WAY too long to make their "Frap, the way they get it at the other Starbucks". Painstakingly, I drizzle "EX CR PLEEZE" inside the cup, under the whip, on top of the whip, in the dome lid, and on top of the hole. And then exclaim "I think this just might be my masterpiece" as I slowly hand it off to the jerk who knows better than to **** with me next time.

I was gonna use Neely O'Hara, but none of you are gay enough, I think, for a reference like that.

So I'll go with Nomi Malone. Here's a few quotes.

"I like having nice t!ts."
"You can't touch me, but I can touch you. I'd really love to touch you."
"It doesn't suck."
"No... You shouldn't get pi$$ed off. Makes you look older!"
"I liked it when you came. I liked your eyes."
"Thanks, I bought it at Ver-sayce."

I believe all of these can be used at any given point in time when working at Starbucks. I'd post clips, but they're usually from the VH1 version, and I refuse to support that.
