Super Basic Starbucks Truck Brings Sloppy Handwriting, Bad Tumblr Memes To The Streets

This is the Starbucks Frappuccino Truck, the latest Ugg Boots-wearing, Mean Girls-quoting, #summerselfie-powered publicity stunt that’s been rolling around Southern California for the past couple of weeks. Let’s just say, if their goal was to create the embodiment of basic bitchdom on wheels, they nailed it. Twice.

Decked in a bright magenta patchwork, the Frapp Trap has been slinging Starbucks classic and limited-time frappuccinos in San Diego and Los Angeles since May, and will continue to do so in select California cities until June 30, reports HuffPo. Where space permits, the truck also rolls out giant Jenga pieces and croquet games — you know, as if the drinks themselves weren’t already #InstaWorthy enough.

In addition to following the actual truck, zealous Frappers can visit the Frappuccino tumblr for a salvo of cat .gifs and breezy beach scenes, or text “flashy” to 22122 for another shot of a cat shooting laser beams from its paws.

The full list of L.A. locations can be seen here. Our advice? Stay far, far away. There’s only so much basicness an Instagram feed can take.
