This is the third thing someone is demanding people give up just so we could have a token, ineffective, anti-straw policy.

1) lipstick (and the effort put into applying it)

2) health reasons (not trusting the cup's sanitary credentials)

3) children (no idea why, but I have kids, and let me tell you: they want straws. Plus prevents spills if you tell them to leave the glass on the table)

How about we give up paper straws instead?
