A New Yorker's nightmare.

Common sense says New York is overpriced. Monthly rents larger than Midwest mortgages. Billion dollar palaces sports stadiums. Ten dollar six packs. You get it. Great. But for all of the things we voluntarily pay too much for, one thing we appreciate is the massive, borough-wide system of free bathrooms. No, I'm not talking about alleys and dumpsters. Enter stage left - Starbucks.

Don't ask me how many 'Bucks are in the city, as there were a few closures around this time last year. Take a quick peak here to get a better understanding of the complex network of cappuccinos potties:

So open up Google Maps on your phone, search your locale for a 'Bucks and make the mad dash to the nearest location for free bathroom usage. Just don't be surprised if you get there only to find this:



The worst. Also don't be shocked when you're in line with 3 strollers, a family of four, and a homeless guy looking to "shower." If you want privacy find one of these spaceships around town. Otherwise grin and bear it. We do.
