Seriously, a few quick whisks, blow a few bubbles and youre good to go. How do people gently caress this up?

lol have you really seen a grown-rear end human being drinking coffee out of one of those coffee stirrers? honestly that's a capital offence and you're allowed to kill that person on the spot.

I did this once when I was thirteen or so and had no idea how to drink coffee but was trying to act grown up because of a girl.

It ended exactly how you'd expect it to.

that's ok you were 13, you get a pass. if you're over 18 and drink hot coffee through a coffee stirrer you're probably not even going to survive the car ride home without running into a tree.

They're thin because that gives liquid flowing through them a really good surface area to cool off as you suck it into your impatient mouth. lmao at people who need to stir their coffee because they added a bunch of cream and sugar to it calling other people babies.

I've never been to a cafe that doesn't provide a small metal spoon when they bring out your coffee cup and plate. Sometimes you get a chocolate covered coffee bean as well.

Wow, thanks for learnin me op. I was sippin coffee out of the stirring straw just this morning in fact. Right across from TWO GIRLS!!! too. You would think that making such a faux pas would've gotten some sort of reaction, but they didn't seem to care. Maybe they were laughing on the inside...

For extra good times put some milk in your coffee.
They also have "creamer" like milk but thicker and more flavorful.
Some people even put sugar in their coffee! Mmm.

There's a lot of cool ways to drink your coffee.

Not just butter, butter and oil, it also helps you lose weight.
