Good to know Angler...my tastes will likely offend you.

I drink no soda, no cola, no sugary nonsense. Straight water or alcohol for ole' Duke...it's been like this for well over a decade.

It is a good idea, but Angler1...you must ask yourself how responsible you are. How prepared are you for life's challenges.

I know Ms Lorren is incredibly prepared for every single minute of every single day. Me on the hand, it's not unusual for me to wander about aimlessly looking for my keys, only to discover they're in my hand. My lifestyle? How dare you, I don't want to discuss that...anyways I would be concerned that I'd always leave my straw behind. I'd arrive at Starbucks and it wouldn't be with me. I'd have to grab a plastic one.

Lol wut...you've been on a good run of late rent.

I guess in a pinch a stainless steel straw could serve as a self defense implement, an extension to secure a fallen cell phone in the car, or to fake you have a pen if some nudnik is asking you to write something down.

It was funny? Well that was probably me...it sounds very crass for the refined heyduke, perhaps I was indulging. But if it was funny, most certainly me.

I was having dinner with a group of people last Saturday, and one of them said that straws kill turtles. I'm not sure if that was in reference to the giant plastic waste raft that's afloat in the ocean, but I suspect it was. As usual, Adina is setting a good example for us all with her use of reusable stainless steel straws. Do your part to save turtles by curtailing the use of plastic straws, and drink responsibly. PSA is over.

Loose produce? How did LettuceMeat get involved here? Have you seen her albums? Oh they're great. She features me in her albums, which is brilliant. She told me she's getting 60% more unique page hits. The speculation is that most are interested in seeing anything about me.

Why did you not hash it out at the time Mr Dudebert? Why have a question and not ask? What is this, I suspect stuff?

You're dining with friends, someone makes a comment about sea turtles dying due to plastic straws. You have a question as to how the actual deaths are occurring and you don't pipe up and ask? WTF is going on here?

Yes we all should Kurtz my boy. I learned from the good brother homb, and when we discussed why an HX'er should be naturally curious, it just clicked. Figured I need to ascertain all facts, hash out specifics.

I totally support the cutting down on plastic waste. But all of the rules and laws here about recycling are very new to me. It seems like California is on the right path trying to save the planet but the rest of the country hasn't caught up with their practices yet.

I saw a Twizzlers commercial today suggesting that their product can replace plastic straws.

It recently occurred to me that Grump's assless chaps requires less of an ecological footprint to produce...but it leaves a larger ass print.

Bring your own fucking straw if needed.

Every state will be waterless/strawless unless asked for. And usually paper straws.

Not sure the data on recycling plastic vs paper but someone is making money off of it.

Stay the hell away from my Double Gulp and straws, but I'll gladly give up all plastic straws if overbearing Gov't would regulate the empty space in Maxine Waters head.
