Sexy Baristas Have Gone Too Far, Says Bonney Lake
Sitting here, looking out our window at the torturous rain and gray skies, thinking about killing ourselves--you know, the usual thing to do when it's June but still feels like February.
But what is this? Yet another story about scantily-clad baristas! Joy! Boobs and joy and boobs and joy.
This latest assault on our provocative purveyors of coffee, comes from the City of Bonney Lake and their efforts to put a stop to the girls wearing anything less than a bikini. Apparently, the girls have been pushing the envelope a bit too much for some.
It's been reported, in fact, that the girls have moved on from basic bikinis to colorful pasties, aprons with nothing underneath, or the more industrious look of nips covered with a bit of electrical tape (our personal favorite).
While we understand the city's stance--that the girls shouldn't be wearing anything they wouldn't wear at the beach--we just want to go on record as saying that these sexed up coffee stands are good for America. It's obvious why, so we won't bother you with all the socio-economic details of our claim.
We will, however, say that we just like the idea that these stands are out there. We haven't yet paid a visit ourselves (because we prefer actual coffee as opposed to giant cups of syrup and milk), but they're out there, and that makes us happy.
And squawk all you want about decency and objectification. There are nine hundred other coffee shacks down the road. Keep driving.

You're a pig!
The apron is obviously far sexier!
Seriously. Way sexier.

So, they are saying that using sex as part of their marketing is wrong? Where's Donny Deutsch when you need him?
And Yes. It is agreed that the apron is way sexier..."Get back in that Kitchen and make a sandwich!"

Yeah the pasties thing is a bit much considering children could be in the car. But viva bikinis and aprons though!

What kind or parent takes their kid to a slutty coffee shack?

The best dads in the world.

But in all honesty, the pasties and electric tape are darn close to your basic adult entertainment. So are those A&F ads.
