(The details of why don't really matter.) A man walked up to the door, looked at it, then looked at me. I explained that it wasn't open yet, but that the School St Starbucks, just 5 blocks "thata way" (I politely pointed using my whole hand down Washington St) was open. He stared at me for a second then said "5 BLOCKS!! UGH! Forget it!" and walked away, disgusted. I'm not sure where he walked away too, but apparently somewhere closer than 5 blocks away.
