misdirected rage
OK, yes. This is a rant. But it will be brief.
I am sick and tired of this stupid "romantic" notion of drinking a $100 bottle of wine out of paper cups. Mugs, fine. Simple glasses, fine. But paper cups? They always show this on stupid TV shows with no plot or cheesy movies starring fluff actors who hide the fact they can't act worth shite with airbrushing and big explosions and stuff. I loathe that sound of paper cups brushing together in a "toast" amplified through sound equipment (it's probably done later in a studio anyway... did you know that the sound of ET walking was a man walking in women's clogs on a sweater that had been left in Jello as it solidified? This is a cool fact and therefore is not my point.). I am sick and tired of this rediculous notion that someone would have the foresight to buy an expensive bottle of wine, and not the foresight to bring some freakin' glasses. Or mugs. Or bowls. But seriously? Paper? Just drink it out of the bottle, people. Please. For my sake.

Oh you're cracking me up. Seriously, if that's all you've got to be pissed about today, you're doing pretty well. :-)
BTW, come visit my post today
It's a little known fact that the carbon polyxital found in most paper cup coating actually enhances certain wines, primarily Gewürztraminer and some types of Chenin Blanc, because it reacts with with particular sulfites found in those vintages.
Damn it! Just drink grape juice!
