    If Tuesday’s three-hour Starbucks closing left you with symptoms of withdrawal, we’ve got news for you — You’ve got a problem.

    Don’t believe us? Here are the top 10 (other) ways you know you’re a Starbucks addict:

    10. Even when you’re not having coffee, you sit in Starbucks because the music’s just that good.

    9. Green and black are your favorite colors.

    8. That dude who made the film “171 Starbucks” is your idol.

    7. You time your coffee breaks around the cute barista’s work schedule.

    6. You’ve actually asked if you can purchase the art on the walls.

    5. You use the word Starbucks like people use Kleenex or Xerox.

    4. You use Starbucks-speak in the outside world. i.e., I’ll have a tall nonfat beer.

    3. You know that if you order a drink “for here,” some Starbucks will give you a ceramic mug.

    2. You bought the Starbucks Christmas ornaments … and you’re Jewish.

    AND ... the No. 1 way you know you're a Sbux addict is:

    1. You know why only some employees wear black aprons (They’ve completed the “Coffee Master” course).
