milkshakes (alas that's all one can find now - seems real malts have gone the way of dinosaurs, The Whaler, and original version Butterfingers)

are just about the only thing I drink with straws, and it has nothing to do with macho bullshit.

Drink is colder at the top and sometimes I like to crunch the ice.

But leave it to these hate filled FUCKS to make a culture war over even a fkn milkshake...

Oh... and honoring our nation's fallen heroes.

But hey. It's not like they'd actually root AGAINST a US women's soccer team....

... say what?
