What's your thinking about drinking straws?

Do you like them? Do you use them? Does it depend on the situation or the drink?

Sucky poll coming.

I didn't think about that. I do that too, although I'm more likely to have a bottle of water or a coffee without straw.

My 5 year old daughter gives two thumbs up when it comes to drinking with a straw.

Sorry man, no it does not. Drinking from a straw or from a bottle or a glass doesn't change the rate of alcohol absorption into the bloodstream.

When I am out to eat all I drink is water. Never been a soda/pop drinker.
Always through a straw when out to eat. I don't like the feeling of putting my lips on something that many, many people have also put their lips on.

Should have been an option of "I only use straws to snort cocaine, and only after I'm all out of money to roll up and use. Usually around 3-4 am"

I hope someone takes advantage of the wife joke opportunities here.

I don't think there are any other situations where I use straws.

A straw with my burger meal on Friday. That's about it.



Most of the time, I'm drinking from a sport bottle filled with water of various varieties.
