  That little tub of sauce could be made of waxy paper entirely, albeit probably at the cost of a lower shelf life.

    It’s almost as if those people would know to take a straw everywhere, seeing as they’ve lived with the condition

    You’re not helping progress with constantly saying “what about…?”

      do they though. I don’t think I have seen them carry their own. After all if every place as a straw then you dont need your own. But that is an easy fix for them.

  Yeah only thing is those cups are like that because people have cup holders in their car. So calling them an infant just cuz they don’t want to sue for lap burns is a bit short sighted.

    B) If you drink coffee with a straw you should be sent to an island somewhere with the people who drive tiny-penis trucks
