Whether it's professional in a newspaper or personal, via a blog or yelp, this is the thread to laugh at all the dipshits who think their opinions are worthwhile. I imagine this thread will be full of yelpers moreso than any other form.
The inspiration for this thread: A yelper who wrote this review for the Millenium Park location of Intelligentsia coffee.

There are those businesses that inspire the thought, "I'd like to run a shop one day," be it coffee, cars or clothes. Because every iota and modicum of this coffee shop is deeply inspired, this is one of those businesses. Yet, like a Yeti slogging through a wet dessert, uphill both ways, the attempt would render me feckless; the precision & prowess of roasting & brewing cannot be matched. My coffee shop should & would be called, "Sisyphus."
If you ever find yourself with the urge to belly up to a bar but you don't have the taste buds for liquored up suds... this coffee bar is unmatched. Considering the baristas are some of the best in the world, they offer V60 drip & a siphon pot & anyone that'd sit at a coffee bar will create intelligent conversation, this is where you should go. And yeah... the use of "should" is ample in this review and will be ample in your visit here because we who take coffee seriously trend proletariat; hence, the red of the five star review, the red of Intelligentsia's bag of beans &, at the heart of it all, the red of the coffee cherry.
Don't fret... individuality pours on with every single sip having a new nuance.
And, sure, Kermit was correct... it's not easy being green. That's why coffee beans leave their green-ness behind and choose to be a roasted, well-rounded veteran of Earth. As you should, too.
