    Fuck paper straws. Useless if you want the drink to last more than 2 minutes.

      Unless I’m taking a drink with me in the car I don’t even get a straw. I’m able to successfully navigate myself through drinking from a cup straw-less at home. Never understood why it was such a necessity at restaurants.

        They’re really useful if you’re wearing lipstick. Also some people with disabilities need them.

          I got a set of stainless steel straws when my area stopped using plastic straws, and it’s always great whenever I actually remember to use it.

      Idk man, Im not saying this to get into a flame war or anything but you’re just having a snowflake take. I’ve never had issues with my paper straws while I’m eating. They last more than long enough for my slow ass to finish eating and sipping while talking and vibing with whoever I’m eating with.

        I think this is the difference between slow eating and slow drinking, when im driving for work my drink generally lasts about an hour minimum. The straws will break down by the time its running low.

        Aw man maybe I’m just having crap straws. I usually have a milkshake at mcd and half way through the straw will collapse at both ends making it useless

          I haven’t had a McDonald’s milkshake in 30 years but I remember the plastic straws collapsed at both ends back then.

          I think your mcDonald’s is fucking up. I bought one maybe 3 months ago and it just had a spoon and regular straw. Paper straw for anything thicker than regular liquid is just brain dead.
