I don’t understand the logic of paper straws to reduce plastic use but not paper bags instead of plastic bags. We grow pine trees like corn. Make some damn paper bags.

Import some plastic straws from out-of-state, use them publicly, and make the local idiots apoplectic.

Makes me think of Starbucks going to that plastic lid so they could phase out plastic straws but the lid uses more plastic than straws do.

I’ll never understand why an adult free of disabilities needs a straw for something that isn’t “frozen”. It’s almost always the “well done” steak crowd that uses straws.

The paper straws in plastic cups are hilarious to me.


For some reason the straws are the bigger problem. Our daughter did a beach cleanup in Florida for NHS and they had more than 3 garbage bags that were just straws. She said straws dominated the pollution followed by cigarette butts. Which agsin pretty much represents the same demographic.

Y'all are such babies. Instead of you being inconvenienced by your paper straw you use plastic and now there's millions of plastic straws in the oceans that will never decompose. Suck it up or just drink your drink like a man with no straw.

I’m not the brightest guy, but you’re still ingesting liquid from the same glass. Just not touching your lips…

For every paper straw that falls apart in your mouth, 5 Indians shite on a piece of plastic and toss it into a river full of garbage.

I'll never get over how CookOut gave me a milkshake with a paper straw and a styrofoam cup. Dumbest shite ever

Glassware is about the cleanest thing in a restaurant. The dirtiest by far is the soup spoon and the menu. All silverware is less clean than glassware.

That’s just a whole level of class I’ve never really been exposed to before. I’ve heard that people eat food in a car, I just thought it was a rumor.
