Goddamn it their soda bottles and disposable water bottles and other beverage containers leave a little plastic piece so you don’t have to hold the cap with your hands, it just stays there.  Beautiful.

Then you get back and you just sigh because you have to hold the damn cap.

That cap dingles on your cheek and any drop left in it will spot on your cothes.

Are you a squirrel with 23 birds in your mouth? No way I'm getting hit by that cap even if I try.

Skill issue.

I figured out how to drink without issue and with the cap attached pretty quickly and you should too.
