“911! What is your emergency?”

“Hi. Yes. I am having lunch at the Penera Bread on Lambard. This waitress brought be a glass of water and offered me a straw. I didn’t ask for it. I would have made her take it back, but I didn’t notice at first. I am keeping the straw for evidence. Please send cops quick. I have to hang up before she sees me calling you.”

“Maam, police are on their way. Stay where you are and remain calm. Don’t use the straw.”

We used to roll our own straws out of a $twenty when needed.

Don’t know. I haven’t lived there since 1997, and am I glad about that. I even hate going there to visit my family.

That pretty much defines the California imbecile governor currently bullshitting more crap disguised as a State of the State address.

To say nothing of the moron legislature...

Wouldn’t we just take them out back and shoot them?

Environmentally messy and economically wasteful. Use them for slave labor until they die. And when they do, string up the corpse in public with a sign saying, "Environmental absent-mindedness leads to THIS".

This is what it comes to - jail terms for passing out straws. This is California and even the Soviets have more common sense.

When straws are outlawed only outlaws will have straws!

Understand, California lawmakers would literally fine you for wiping too many times if they could.

Who ever thought up this idea needs to be beaten until they scream for mercy.
