    What are other countries doing? Is it just a ‘bring your own cup’ thing? Do y’all just have a hundred cups on hand for parties?

      We usually just limit the number of friends we invite to match the number of cups we own.

      For example, I don’t own any cups.

      Plastic cups are not all that prevalent anymore in homes here in Europe for environmental reasons.

      Paper cups are used for drinking parties. But if we want to be inviting to our guests we serve drinks in glasses. Glass can be quickly cleaned and reused so no need to have hundreds of them.

      We pour the soda in our hands and try not to spill as we gesture during conversation 🤌

        OMG the horror. ASL is my “drunk accent”.

        I grew up around deaf family and we all learned sign language before we learned to talk. The more I drink, the more my hands start to sign along with me.

      Traditionally, one person sips from the bottle, then shares with the homies via French kiss. More hygienic that way.

        I was really hoping for a beer bong.

        But I guess Bros before Hose is true across the globe.

      Who’s having parties with a couple hundred people? Is that like a wedding or something

      I have enough cups in my house for the 40 people max at any party I’ve ever hosted
