Re: Poll: For fountain drinks, do you prefer Styrofoam or Plastic cups?

this is quite funny. I also like to destroy the rim of the cup with my teeth. Tear it off piece by piece. It makes the cup smaller while you fill it up with itsself. Or I like to draw designs on them with my fingernails. I can write my name on them... anything, it's great! Then if you have like a water cooler or something you can fill in your designs with a marker and make it a pimp cup. I always write "Rick's Pimp Cup" on mine.


Anybody else also use their teeth to tear up ice pop wrappers and stuff the remains into the wrapper until you get to like the bottom inch of it?

-yeah yeah.. random quirks. so what.

bendy straws are teh shit.


Oh yeah I completely forgot... styrofoam cups are HORRIBLE for the environment. You can't recycle them. They turn into chemical waste. Plastic cups all the way.

Plastic. It's just more durable and it comes in pretty colors.

Just order with no ice You'll get more pop, it's all accessible, and it doesn't get watered down by the (usually horrible tasting city-provided) water.

Chris, if you put the styrofoam cup in petrol it will create napalm...does putting it in dichloromethane do the same?

no, you get an odd solution. leave it about a day and it sets, giving you non-expanded (or more solid) polystyrene. nothing special.

Napalm is more fun

You can put some on a stick and throw fireballs, or leave it burning in the can for hours on end...
