I was about to say that this "Sexpresso" thing should go in the Idiocracy since, as both you and Carl Rmick mentioned, in the future Starbucks has evolved into a sex shop.
However, unlike you, I think it's a good movie, albeit with some unfortunate b-movie trappings that make it see dumber than it really is.
Also on the news tonight: teens and young adults filming themselves barreling into fences to knock them over has become a kind of recreational sport for kids in New York. They videotape themselves ramming bodily into wooden fences and toppling them over, and post them to YouTube. Pure Idiocracy stuff.
