I get ragey if I can’t find a pint glass.
We have two pint glasses from previous Cambridge Folk Festivals (I pay a deposit for them so I think I’m okay to take them home).
Our glasses are now very sensible, but then I’m old:
Still have several pint glasses that have come from real ale festivals. But now I go to wanky beer festivals they have been overtaken by smaller, wankier glasses.
Like what am I meant to do with this:
We have a few pint glasses, one 1/2 pint job from a beer festival and several, what I like to refer to as, tumblers. We also have 5 small, plastic cups which my daughter uses so as not litter the house up with smashed glass.
tumblers, yes, this is what these glasses are called, I almost forgot!
I’ve taken to just keeping a couple of diet coke bottles filled with water in the fridge and restocking them as necessary. All cold water all the time, no need for glasses.
To answer your question, I reckon younger people are just greedier and lazier, so pint glasses suit them.
different glasses for different needs.
Exactly. Tumbler for a bit of water to take a tablet, pint glass for everything else.
don’t use shot glasses as much these days tbh… guessing that is definitely an age thing.
My glasses fall into 3 categories
you drink out of a nutella jar…?
We have a couple, too.
Isn’t it just youthful kleptomania? I had a friend at uni who’s entire kitchen was just full of stolen beer glasses. He also had loads of stolen ash trays and smelly old bar towels.
the small ones - they are supposed to be used as glasses when you finish the jar
like this
Ahh I know the ones. I thought you were on about the big screw top ones
one of my pet hates is arriving at someones house, really thirsty and dehydrated and then being offered a fucking thimbleful of water as if that’s going to rehydrate me, gimme a pint ffs
Those glasses are my favourite! I love that shape! I’m not sure why, but I do.
Oh yeah do have a pig’s ear one as well
