Unfiltered Story #351265
I am about 6 or 7 years old and I get invited to go to the public pool with my best friend and her family. We all have a great time and are exhausted by the time were ready to leave. The mother pulls out a large water bottle and passes it around then offers it to me. My family doesn’t use water bottles that much so I use this one the only way I know how. I tip it all the way vertical and pull on the mouth piece getting only a small amount of water and having cold water drip onto my face. When I put it down the whole family is looking at me.
The Mother: “Its a straw dear. You don’t use it that way.”
Twenty-odd years later I am still so embarrassed!
