In this category, you'll find (or will at least soon find) a fine collection of articles on the ever-exciting topic, drinking glasses.  Yeh, I'm being a bit facetious, but in all seriousness, it's in your best interest to pick up a drinking glass that best suits your beverage (and how fast you want to drink it) - better yet, a glass that best suits you. 

There was a darker time, primarily during my college years, where I didn't put any thought or care into the vessel holding my beverage.  As long as it held more than 12 ounces, and I could tip it upside down, it really didn't matter. Now, I'm a bit older, and I've grown to enjoy the finer things in life.  I've come to realize that my beer bong would be a lot easier to operate with a valve on it, and that Paramount vodka martinis taste a lot better in plastic martini glasses than they do in solo cups.  I've grown much wiser in my quest to catch a buzz. 

For you prudes out there, it's not just about the alcohol - I mean it mainly is - but there's a sipping etiquette that applies to your juice box contents as well.  If you dig deep enough, you'll find someone to sell you a drink glass for every darn beverage on the market.  Coffee mugs, espresso cups, juice jugs...whatever.  Whether alcoholic or not, your decanters, flutes, and coffee cups are all designed with function in mind; to allow your drink to breathe properly, settle evenly, and give you the confidence that when it comes to getting proper refreshment, you refuse to take short cuts. 

So throw that freakin' paper cup away, bring a stein to the next keg line, drink that margarita with flare, and if you're cheap, there are plenty of plastic drink glasses that will do the job just fine.  Have a little pride, and start taking your drink glasses seriously!..Yeh, I'm done.
