Apparently a local religious group is up in arms over the new (old) Startbucks logo. Sheesh.

(San Diego, CA) Starbucks has recently introduced a new version of their logo which features a topless mermaid with her legs spread, which has caused outrage from a nation wide Christian media watchdog organization. The Resistance, with has over 3000 members nationwide, is boycotting Starbucks across the country saying their new logo is inappropriate.

“The Starbucks logo has a naked woman on it with her legs spread like a prostitute,” explains Mark Dice, founder of the group. “Need I say more? It’s extremely poor taste, and the company might as well call themselves, Slutbucks.”

Okay. Really. It’s a FISH WOMAN and those are not legs.. They’ve used the “Siren” logo before... But aside from that, come on! (The new cup below the jump, in case you’ve missed it.)

But I agree with Richard, I kinda like Slutbucks… “I am a bit of a coffee whore.”
