<p>Starbucks has a new size: 31oz &#8220;Trenta&#8221;. <strong>Big whoop</strong>.</p>
<p>Your ol&#8217; pal Carl Mundy here is no stranger to <strong>little bite sized sugar cookies</strong>, but every once in a while I crave something a bit more generous. <strong>Ain&#8217;t nothing wrong with wantin&#8217; more outta life</strong>, that&#8217;s what I always say. Which is exactly why I wanna sit down with all a you numbnuts at Gawker and Eater.com so I tell you one thing once and fer all: <strong>The new Starbucks Trenta may be a big girl, but she&#8217;s alright with Carl</strong>.</p>
<div id="attachment_7789" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 538px"><a href="http://sprudge.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/starbucks-trenta-bottle-wine.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-7789" title="starbucks-trenta-bottle-wine" src="http://sprudge.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/starbucks-trenta-bottle-wine.jpg" alt="" width="528" height="297" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Dingus.</p></div>
<blockquote><p>Important boozing news! We already knew that Starbucks&#8217; <a href="http://eater.com/archives/2011/01/17/starbucks-to-launch-a-31-oz-big-gulp-of-coffee.php">new 31-ounce Trenta iced coffee cup</a> is <a href="http://eater.com/archives/2011/01/17/new-starbucks-trenta-larger-than-average-human-stomach.php">larger than the average human stomach</a>, but here&#8217;s something you might not know: The new cup can actually hold <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3gghjszSho&amp;feature=player_embedded#">an entire bottle of wine</a>.</p></blockquote>
<p>Old Raphael over at the Eater.com needs to shut his yap and <a href="http://eater.com/archives/2011/02/04/starbucks-huge-trenta-cup-holds-an-entire-bottle-of-wine.php" target="_blank">just drink his French Appalachia</a>.</p>
<p>Now, have you ever seen a Double Gulp? She&#8217;s a queen sized 64oz worth of bubble juice and makes Trenta look bite sized in comparison. But I ain&#8217;t heard nothin&#8217; from no one about the 7/11&#8242;s drink sizes. And just last Tuesday, I took my new squeeze Nancy out to the drive-in to see that &#8220;Black Swan&#8221;, and she wanted to share her whole buttery tub of popcorn with all them starvin&#8217; ballerinas! Plus a king size Dr. Pepper to boot! Well guess what? The Motor Vu Drive-In got <strong>smalls starting at 24oz</strong>, and ol&#8217; Carl ain&#8217;t made of coupons. </p>
<p>So leave my new gal Trenta alone. Sometimes you gotta make that long haul, from Twin Falls down there to Elko, Wyoming, and a man just can&#8217;t bring himself to order two whole vanilla Venti cappa-cuppaccinos. <strong>Sometimes a man just needs a little more.</strong> </p>
<p>Here&#8217;s what you butterscotch Buncha-Crunches in the mainstream media oughta be reporting on:</p>
