Is the Starbucks red cup controversy real? It's amazing how these things blow up out of nowhere and take on a life of their own.

A former TV and radio evangelist lit up the Internet by accusing Starbucks of waging a war on Christmas after the coffee giant rolled out a plain red cup that included no holiday artwork or written messages. Some people say they don't care ... but then they continue to post about how much they don't care.

Meantime, I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around the world today. We are living in the so-called reality era, but is it really reality? I hate to be the one to break it to you that most things are set up or staged and appear to be reality, when in reality it went exactly how it was planned to go.

Like this Starbucks red cup controversy? We may never know what Starbucks' true motives were.

Meantime,  just make my coffee. And as long as it's in a cup (I don't care what color), I'm good to go.
