Slog - Comments on Good Morning To You Too http://slog.thestranger.com/2006/08/good_morning_to_you I sure like Sureshot Espresso on the Ave. Unpretentious, beat up tables, free WiFi, pinball. What's not to like? Well, gee, I could quibble with the staffers blasting music at 7 AM, and the odd eye-wateringly-stanky-U-District street person. Minor discomforts, really. But there's just no excuse for this: I'll put up with loud music and the odd stanker, but no one should be forced to drink his morning coffee or tea—and play his first game of pinball—under a painting of a sliced open bunny rabbit....

I'm happy to sit under paintings of eviscerated bunnies, aborted fetuses, and Holocaust retrospectives if I can get a good macchiato.

Which, at Sureshot, I can't.

So, there.

God, how I hate those bunnies.

When did you become so bourgeoisie? Can't you tell a cry from help from the exploited coffee-making wage laborers when you see one?

I figure every coffee place plays music, but I go in there a lot and I have never heard a good song. I have somewhat picky taste but the shit they listen to is utter crap. The white coffee? Tastes like dirt!! The breakfast sandwich? A costco croissant with a kraft single and a single paper thin slice of bacon.

However, it never causes any stomach problems that coffee and conventional espresso tends to do.

I've always enjoyed the drinks they made me, but it could be the syrups and soy milk :P

There are no wild rabbits. They're feral, which is different. Abandoned pets, many carrying diseases, who are slowly destroying the great trees in Woodland Park.

If I thought I could get away with it I'd go down there and kill a hundred of them with my bare hands.

You're absolutely right: that's not a Before Coffee type painting. It's not only a dissection, it's also a vagina, so that's why Dan didn't get it. Hope there's no hard feelings.
