It’s so funny because this is me! I ordered my pumpkin spice latte as usual at Starbucks because it’s at one of our locations and this woman, I could tell she was a millennial like me, kept side-eyeing me.
Like yeah girl, the whole white women liking pumpkin spice ain’t limited only to white women lol. I’m here and I’m proud baby! Pumpkin spice is life! Year round baby! It’s in my veins! I’m a fiend!
Y’all… I got pumpkin spice oatmeal, made pumpkin spice eggnog. I have pumpkin spice pocky….
All day EVERY DAY motherfuckers!

What gets me as a barista at starbucks is everyone likes it. Old men in suits order it. Children order it. College girls order it. EVERYONE AND THEIR MAMA WANTS IT! Trust me I wish they didnt, but its true! Idk who made that up, but I feel like they were ashamed of their own pumpkin preferance LMAO because the barista sees all!

As someone who uses pumpkin pie spice on French toast instead of cinnamon, all year long, I'm really happy we all enjoy PS! Makes it taste better imo! Welcome sis! Bring your friends lol!

If you have a Trader Joe's near you?
Get their Pumpkin Spice Brioche, let it dry out a little, then slice it thick & make THAT into french toast!
It's the perfect fall french toast--especially with real maple syrup!😉

I love pumpkin beer and will not suffer fools who try to rag on me for it. Pumpkin spice lovers unite!

I do think the PSLs at Starbucks are a gross sugar bomb, because Starbucks coffee is just not that good.
But I really like the warming spices that make up pumpkin spice, and support and will defend your rights to enjoy it and put pumpkin spice in everything, girl. Tis the season! 🎃🍂🥧
ETA: where'd you get pumpkin spice pocky? 👀

Asian grocery store.
And yeah Starbucks is bad for me for sure. It’s purely out of convenience.

Funny enough real pumpkin spice mix contains nutmeg which you can in fact get high on

people i knew in high school did that once. from their stories it was bith labor intensive and a bad experiance. 0/10. the stories were pretty funny though.

I tried. You have to invest a LOT and the payoff is not worth the effort.

You're more likely to die from nutmeg poisoning than actually get an enjoyable high

I once put Nashville Hot Chicken spice in my latte. The bottle was shockingly similar to my Pumpkin Spice bottle.
For the curious: NHC lattes are disgusting.

Edited a typo. Addiction not addition. Gesh, autocorrect

Idk some of her mannerisms give she’s in recovery or at least used to party. she might be making light of a situation not making fun. im an addict in active addiction and i dont find it offensive lol, just cringe maybe

u/DysphoricNeet 4d ago
I hope you’re looking towards something better friend. I have been an addict for 8 years and it seems like it might actually be over soon. Never thought I’d come this far both in addiction and recovery. Good luck.

Idk the way she shook that guy's hand and then he handed her the spice makes me think she believes everyone picking up is politely greeting their dealer and not just discreetly palming their money/drugs 😂 but who knows!

u/luigis_left_tit_25 4d ago
That's how movies and shows depict "drug deals" in the usa and had for some time (I'm old-er lol) so that part seemed almost cartoonist to me.. maybe a little colorism on media's part from so long ago..

Rebecca Reingold is a comedian and I'm trying to figure out if she has been addicted bc i am addicted to a substance and I thought this was funny but i would like to know what place this is coming from
11
u/--slurpy-- 4d ago
I guess it's all about the perspective. I have a family member who's destroying his life and his kids lives over addiction. It's hard being this close to it, wanting to help, not wanting to enable, the fine linen you walk between all of that & your boundaries. Taken all that into consideration, it just doesn't feel funny. From my perspective that is.
I'm really truly sorry about your addiction. It's a difficult thing to live with, and I understand you wanting to find humor in some part of it. I wish you hope & strength
14
u/WildFlemima *bounced bonerly* 4d ago
It's okay! Life destroying addictions are a big deal. My dad destroyed multiple marriages, his relationship with all his children, and his lifespan with alcoholism. Compared to that, mine is small potatoes (weed)(I'm addicted to something they say isn't addictive, they are liars lol)
I've watched a bit of a random video with her and she at minimum used to do cocaine, unclear if she still does or if she had an addiction - she talked about her meds after getting diagnosed with adhd and said cocaine was better lol. Which does give former addict vibes to me

u/luigis_left_tit_25 4d ago
Upvote for weed not not being addictive. Fully agree. I have two habits and one is weed.. the other is nicotine.. they're both bad in their own ways.. I'm starting my quit journey with cigs today..I start my meds. I really hope it works, I'm so tired of spending money just to xx myself, because at least with weed it's like meds. Nicotine is just.. killer. 🫶

u/--slurpy-- 4d ago
Quitting smoking was sooo hard for me. It took me 2 times to really get the quit to stick. I did that Chantix and quit for 8 months. That chantix can be brutal after you stop taking it, it made me depressed and I didnt even have a word for that until I seen a commercial for it a few months later. The 2nd time I quit and the one that stuck was the patch. I'm 3.5 years cigarette free. I just checked my tracking app, I've saved over $12,000 by not smoking this long.
I have faith you can do it, its gonna be a struggle, but its possible!

u/luigis_left_tit_25 4d ago
I start chantix today!

u/--slurpy-- 4d ago
Make sure you ween yourself off of it the way your doctor prescribes it once you are done. I stopped because I ran out. Really messed me up. But it does work! You so got this!!!

u/luigis_left_tit_25 4d ago
Thank you for that info! Getting off some antidepressants has taught me.. no cold turkey anything for me! 🤣 I'm not gonna lie, I have a new doc and he was almost too excited to give me the rx.. my other docs, for years wouldn't do it because I'm a depressed person (MDDw/A) a few through the years wouldn't do it.. but I've been wheezing every day and I'm a little scared..I don't want copd. Or the big C.. my granny passed from that and it was so horrible for her and the family. I appreciate the warning, he (the doc) sure didn't say anything about the side effects coming off it.. so thank you again. I'm really glad you were able to get that monkey off ur back! Way to go friend! For real!

u/--slurpy-- 4d ago
I have another family member who smokes weed every day yet swears he's not addicted. I've noticed a change in his rationale in the last few years, he's very confrontational and contrary just to be contrary. Sometimes I feel like he's become a living breathing internet troll. He wasn't like that before his weed addiction, but he was an alcoholic then so..
I do believe you saying it's addictive. And I also believe it's less damaging to the family than alcohol.

u/luigis_left_tit_25 4d ago
Waaay less damaging than alcohol.. gosh alcohol is the devil and I swear I'm very thankful I somehow dodged that addiction, but it's gotten damn near every other family member, including my siblings (2)

u/ImWatermelonelyy 4d ago
A guy I work with quit weed and said he didn’t realize how reliant he was on it till he wasn’t sleeping and was snapping at family members after 4 days without it.

u/peach_xanax 4d ago
that seems like a him problem...I smoked every day for multiple decades, now I do it maybe 3x a month, and I never had any issues with suddenly being an asshole to people. never felt a single "withdrawal" symptom at all, actually.
8
u/peach_xanax 4d ago
well i'm an addict and think this is hilarious 🤷🏼♀️ I don't feel like she's making fun of addicts, the joke is about pumpkin spice, not "addicts are bad". but I have a dark sense of humor and I'd rather laugh than cry, so that's just my perspective
4
u/--slurpy-- 4d ago
That's perfectly OK. I personally have been going through some struggles with really close family members dealing with addictions, it's been a dark place for us.

u/Budget-Capybara 14h ago
I don't think she's indicating addicts or drug users are bad - (I'm sober - ex cocaine and alcohol user) I think making light of drug use though comparison to innocuous things like cinnamon is morally bereft.
Like did you steal from your family and disappear for 6 days for that PSL? I doubt it.

Guys I ran out of ginger today and looked up substitutions. Cinnamon was one and my pumpkin spice jar also had ginger in it. I made pumpkin spice stir fry and it was the best stir fry I’ve ever made. 😩
