That’s another state that I’m glad that hubby and I DID NOT SETTLE IN. Now I know why they call it, “Fl-a-duh”. It’s okay to visit but not to live.

No Democrat ever has suggested banning 40 oz. Bottles of malt liquor.

So sad. My Jack Danials does not taste right without a plastic straw.

It’s only the beginning. If they can get away with this, it’s plastic caps for coffee cups. Then plastic spoons that go with the coffee.
In a few years, a plastic tax on all materials made out of plastic.
The problem is not the damned straws. It’s the stupid behavior of the people who have the damned straws.

If straws are outlawed, only outlaws will have straws.

I guess these folks are too young to remember trying to get a milkshake through a collapsed paper straw.

Lol! I do recall that well. I also remember that milkshakes and malts tasted better through a paper straw than plastic.

“I also remember that milkshakes and malts tasted better through a paper straw than plastic.”

That’s because you had to work for every sip after about the third.

Paper straws or C notes? More likely paper straws. I’m headed that way later this month but Harrah’s is paying the freight and the slot play.

Plastic straws are now like Bobby Brady’s Hawaiian tiki idol. Liberals are terrified of them. Superstitious anti-science goofballs.
