For me it depends. When I was living with other people I wouldn't do it, but now that I live alone I have no problem pulling the 1 L carton of orange juice out and drinking straight from it. How do you feel about this issue?

It depends. Basically, whether or not I use a cup is determined by whether other people will drink from the same container, not the size of it. So unless it's a bottle of something only I like, cranberry juice for instance, I generally end up using a cup because I have roommates.

Gross, but only because I live with people.

If it's like the last cup full of milk or something, I'll drink it from the carton

oh also I don't do that with Milk because jugs of milk usually end up with dry crusty milk at the top and that's weird and unpleasant to drink.

Yeah I do.

This.

I'm the only person in the house that drinks orange and grapefruit juice so I take that stuff to the head constantly.

depends how much is left in the bottle.

I drink out of the bottle all the time. Just don't tell my family.

If all I want is just a tiny bit, then yea.

No, it's big and unwieldy to do so.

If it's towards the end of the container (not counting milk as stated earlier), of course I will.

I drink out of the bottle if its something I bought for me.


...or if no one is looking. Oh well.

This is the logic I use but only if I only want a quick drink. If I want to sit somewhere I pour a cup.

Yes.

I live alone.

Depends, usually I dont.

If it's something I bought specifically for me, I know nobody else will drink out of it, or something like that... shit yeah.

I don't because I have a certain measure of self-esteem remaining.

Oh who am I kidding I chug milk out of PLASTIC BAGS ARGHGHHFGHDHT

Oh and for the record, I do it anyway even if I live with people, but I have the courtesy to not put my mouth (or anything) on the carton/spout/whatever. It's pretty easy. I'm more of a "hey, I'm thirsty *open the fridge and take a swizzle*" because I like to just have one big drink or a couple gulps of something as opposed to an entire glass. Plus I fucking hate doing dishes, so why dirty extra ones?

I fucking miss the bags, all they have out here are Cartons and I find them inconvenient and vastly increase the risk of drinking spoiled milk, which is no picnic.

that being said, if I'm with my family at home I will, the shit I have here is mine and no one else should be drinking it so I usually just dirnk it out of the carton, unless I'm having cookies or some shit and I want to dunk them. And depending how drunk we are, a bottle of liquor may or may not be passed around for everyone's enjoyment

Never out of larger cartons/bottles.

Yeah, why dirty a glass?

Yeah. Usually I have my own milk (only one in my family to drink 1%) and anything else is usually mine. Here at college I don't have any problems at all with it.

why have glasses? o_0

Yes. Living alone gives me the goddamn right.

This.

i'm always just a lil bit grossed out, but not to the point where i won't do it.

i can't fucking stand it, though, when people drink milk or any opaque fluids from the bottle. fucking grosssssss.

depends. if it's mine, sure.

rarely. if i need to wash down some pills or something, i'll usually take a swig of something. water sometimes doesn't work if they taste rather nasty.
