It's "Pumpkin." That's the password.

Get it? Eh, eh?

In case you didn't understand, Starbucks put together this cute image for you to remember it by. Starbucks—what would we ever do without you?

All kidding aside, if you are #basiq and want to try the pumpkin spice latte before everyone else—go here.

Just enter the super secret password we mentioned above and Starbucks will text a special PSL pass to your phone.

Then you can take your sugary treat, wrap up in your Snuggie and sweat to death on your couch because it is still basically summer. You could also try this at the Starbucks counter...

Hey, we know it's still summer, but we have to talk about pumpkin spice.

In just a few short weeks, you will be able to stroll into your nearest Starbucks, wearing your recently un-closeted cardigan, and order as many pumpkin spice lattes that will fit into your gloved hands. Then you can grab pumpkin muffins, pumpkin chapstick and then some pumpkin-scented nose hair trimmers.

Well M&Ms want to join that seasonal trend and they've introduced a pumpkin spiced flavor of their own Aug. 26.

The announcement made people so skeptical that Snopes had to step in and verify that they were, in fact, real.

If you want them, however, People says that you can only find them at Target.

And for a limited time no less.

To encourage discussions about race relations in the United States, Starbucks has asked its baristas to write #RaceTogether on coffee cups and engage in serious conversations with customers.

Turns out that’s the last thing people a bunch of disgruntled people want first thing in the morning while waiting for their first jolt of caffeine.

CEO Howard Schultz describes the initiative as “an opportunity to begin to re-examine how we can create a more empathetic and inclusive society – one conversation at a time.”

He organized an internal meeting back in December in which employees shared stories and discussed all the recent shootings and events which inspired protests and riots from Ferguson to New York.

The company held similar forums around the country over the past few months, and now they’ve decided to extend this initiative out to their customers through the “Race Together” initiative.

Despite all the good intentions behind the campaign, it has turned into somewhat of a joke on Twitter.

After the backlash, Starbucks’ senior vice president of communications, Corey duBrowa, eventually deleted his Twitter account, which is not a good sign.

“I was personally attacked through my Twitter account around midnight last night and the tweets represented a distraction from the respectful conversation we are trying to start around Race Together,” he told Business Insider.

Here are some of the responses on Twitter that Starbucks likely did not see coming:

If you like coffee and beer, maybe this new Starbucks drink is worth a shot! Starbucks is testing what they've named the Dark Barrel Latte, a drink made with espresso and a chocolaty stout flavor and topped with whipped cream and a dark caramel drizzle. While there's no alcohol actually in the drink, many are insisting that it tastes a lot like beer.

Starbucks already sells beer and wine at some of their stores in the evening, and this fun new blend might be a good way to bridge the gap between the coffee lovers and the beer & wine enthusiasts. Many of the company's customers love trying new things and unique flavor pairings, so for now they're testing this drink to see if it has the potential to become more widely available.

And here's the story about how it all ended. What do you think? Jerk move, or does this guy have a point?

The "Powermat Spots" will allow compatible devices to charge wirelessly in designated areas of tables and counters. Starbucks' press release on the rollout indicates that the company will begin expanding wireless charging to "major markets" sometime in 2015.

As an added bonus, it will only take about a half an hour to make the drink!
