Add actor and Twitchy regular Rob Lowe to list of those unhappy with Starbucks’ new red cup:
Between their program to have baristas lecture me about race and now their removal of "Merry Christmas" I'm officially over @Starbucks #done

Last word on the subject: I take my coffee with as much caffeine as I can get and with as little political agenda as I can get.

But here’s the thing. As we told you earlier this morning, Starbucks didn’t have “Merry Christmas on their cups last year:
Hey, um…@RobLowe …@Starbucks never had "Merry Christmas" on their cups. Try their 2015 Christmas Blend coffee! https://t.co/DBwJzEbGmu

So, why the outrage this year?
I congratulate Mr. Lowe on having enough spare time and few enough problems in life to be outraged over red cups. https://t.co/Sbe2UC7ckb

And are we sure this thing hasn’t been made up from the start?

We’ll end it with this. Definitive proof Starbucks doesn’t hate Christmas:
