I know right, the only people I see "hanging out" at Dunkin are retired folks.

When most places had their dining rooms closed because of covid, they would bring camp chairs and hang out in the parking lot.

I was in Calais Maine over the summer and there was a group of American old guys at the Dunkin in Calais and then a group of Canadian old guys at the Tim Hortons a couple miles away in St. Stephen New Brunswick. Old guys getting coffee is universal.

Immediately after I posted that I wondered if they were purposely making a play on words, like the guys argue/debate a lot so instead of a “coffee klatch” they were a “coffee clash” and I was just being an annoying know-it-all.

Well maybe you are still an annoying know-it-all lol. I am familiar with the feeling. We just can’t stop ourselves haha
