It's just whipped cream from a can. Buy a can for super cheap and do them yourselves.
edit: I know it says that in the article, but I assume that Starbucks charges for it.
I'm pretty sure they don't charge for it as long as you're buying a drink too, and if you aren't I think you're a jerk for going there and asking for one.
TIL Doctor Who is part of the Tommyverse.

Okay, so after that terrifying moment, apparently, no, it does not. That is a yawn, the neck pouch is stretching against the spine, and the bird in the upper lefthand corner is a shoebill, aka a Murder Stork.

If you haven't read Brentalfloss: The Comic, Howard Phillips also makes an appearance in that during the final Time Travel arc.

TIL Mischief Night is a...REGIONAL thing around the East Coast for the most part, not much in the West! Granted yes it has origins other wheres, but its mostly around my side. Years of Halloween pranks in movies, I thought it was an all state thing, neat!
I don’t think something like mischief night would go over in Texas. Somebody would shoot someone for tearing up their stuff.
TIL what “Mischief Night” is… you’re not kidding about that being an East Coast thing. Never heard of it out here in California.
