  1. Clutching at straws is how I feel about life right now, because inevitably many words are spoken but very little gets said in a time like this with a heart that burns like this. The straw is bending and at break point.

  2. Straw. Wenn man Beeren ranhängt, sind es Strawberries. Strauchbeeren? Warum nicht Earthberries? Das wäre doch irgendwie logischer, oder? Erdbeeren kann man nicht per Fax schicken. Sie würden nie beim Empfänger ankommen und das Sendegerät würde möglicherweise kaputtgehen oder nur schwarze Matschflecke verschicken.

  3. I am reminded of an old friend of mine when we were 13. At that age I was quite competetive and although we were best friends, we had a strong rivalry with on another. While we were eating lunch, I claimed, “My straw is better than your straw” He replied, “Ok”. Nothing could have made me more content

  4. a straw is something that you use to sip soft drinks such as Coca Cola products. Another type of straw is a string that can be used to hang laundry. It is very durable and can last for hundreds of years.

  5. The man awoke to scratchy feelings all over, and it was a little while before he reaised that these were inside rather than outside. He stumbled groggily to his feet in a field full of corn, and in the window of a passing car saw a picture of a field, a scarecrow standing in the center.

  6. Straws are very useful, they help you drink out of a bottle or even a can. Ladies look very sophisticated with it as it is very lady-like to drink with a straw instead of sculling viciously from a bottle or a can. :)

  7. I sip my straw in sunny days
    Sprite, cola, lemonade
    All the refreshments in my cup
    Summer time
    pools & tanning
    I sip my straw on sunny days

  8. It was the straw that broke the camel’s back; I’m pretty sure this was a break heard ’round the world. He cheated. And I would never look at him the same way again.

  9. he made a heart out of straws intending it to give it to her, but he never did. it remained in his right pocket for a long time and one day it was gone, just like her.
    the end

  10. His strawhat swayed in the billowing wind that hit him like a train out of hell. The air was hot and he felt himself melting like the red hot ship around him yet he knew he wasn’t and he knew he could take it. The volcano was nothing and this heat wasn’t going to be the straw that broke this camel’s back. So String the Camel jumped into the Volcano and ate all the built-up lava while wearing the ashes of his farmer’s market strawhat.

  11. i like straws. they are very useful when it comes to drinks. they just make drinks so much more fun to drink because you get to anticipate the delicious beverage coming up the straw instead of just chugging it down like regular people do. it gives you a chance to have fun. even with something boring as a drink

  12. you drink with them and it can be itchy. straw is what hourses and cows and goats eat and sheep too. I like ot drink form straws but I have heard that it causes wrinkles and i don’t want wrinkles so I don’t use them too much but its good to use the m with soda cans cause you avoid germs that way.

  13. he leaned over and grabbed his straw heat..

    “I will leave now. Please don’t wait for me…. ”
    I knew i will never see him again. He was off to fulfilling his dream.
    And I prayed he would.

  14. A straw… I honestly like to think that people chew on them more than drink out of them.

  15. I really love to drink diet coke out of large plastic cups and bendy straws. I just bought a new box of bendy straws when I was on vacation this week, because I got a new plastic cup from the zoo in New Orleans. The straws were only 59 cents from Rouses, and it was so worth it. I actually drank dr. pepper out of the cup though. Not diet coke. Oops.

  16. the stars is yellow and red and you can drink fluids form it, ver helpful, in fact i want one right noe cause i have a drink with me and it would be easier to drink with it. i love straws, i wish i could have all the straws in the world so i wouldn’t have to drink anything straight into my mouth cause that’s annoying and i hate it i wish it could die as a way of drinking cause come on

  17. straws are used to drink stuff, you have crazy straws, those are fun. then you have the regular straws they give in restaurants, the bendy ones are better.

  18. when i was a girlscout, we sang a chant about a bug crawling up a straw of a fountain drink. it always completely grossed me out, i have never looked at a straw the same way. straws are great fun though. i wonder if they would make good bubble blowers? i love the ones that look like barbers poles. they make drinks instantly more fun

  19. Once upon a time there was a straw named Charlie. He was a very happy straw. He let people use him to drink their favorite beverages. He especially liked to have orange juice sipped out of him. At the end of the day he was always lonely.

  20. I like those curly crazy straws you used to have as a kid. Blowing as hard as you can to make bubbles blow up, then sucking for twelve hours trying to get any liquid to come back to you. Not sure what the point was, looking back on them.

  21. a straw is an implement used to suck liquid from a cup. That said, it can often be a source of male insults. A man wielding a straw is often belittled for a motion similar to that of felatio. Strange, right?

  22. i have a straw and it makes everything so great. now i don’t have to move about my air to breathe it inconveniently. i can suck it through and thorough. i have sy thetic asthma. it is fun.

    by Mike on 06.13.2012
  23. sipping water, frosty beads, fun colours for kids, the stripey ones that used to melt in your mouth, the sharp scoops at the end of slurpie straws which remind me of bowling alleys and cheap hot dogs and strange smelling shoes. when i have a party I make sure there is a selection, but they are so bad for the environment I suppose. What price style….

  24. Suddenly it felt as if I was living in a straw. The air was thinner and harder to breathe, I could see less and hear less. All I could feel was how trapped it made me to decide, so I ran instead.

  25. Straight or curly, colourful or just yellow, plastic or hay. Doesn’t matter how you see it, they’re all the same word. Straw.

  26. i fill them up at work, connect them to make a long straw sword! drink through them, taking them from the top by opening the thing instead of througfh the dispenser, crazy straws, makes drinks last longer, straw diet.

  27. there is a straw hat sitting on the front lawn. it resides next to a cup with a white straw that is placed next to a white napkin on a freckled thigh. Hands clasped in hands. straw biting between the lips of lovers.

  28. used for drinking and making messes with water. natural instincts of sucking are necessary for proper use and can be used in many different drinks. including soup. thin plastic tube. sometimes folds at the scrunchy part. not all straws have a scrunchy part.

  29. I like straws. They’re very handy for drinking out of cups that have tops. I love bendy straws and curly straws. Maybe it’s just the kid in me, but I’d rather have one of those straws then a plain white one. I believe that without straws, we would be drinking straight from the cup all the time, which is gross especially at public diners and restaurants.

  30. every day he looked out to see pieces of grass blowing peacefully in the wind. he wanted nothing more then to be like them. but instead he was stuck inside this barn

  31. the way his hair feels as it brushes against my chest. I know I shouldn’t let him do that. But the taboo is to lovely to pass up. I love the way it feels when we touch, caress, truely feel. to go back would be brilliant.

  32. I always get straw. I wonder what’s so great about a straw anyway. I mean, curly/crazy straws are pretty cool……when you’re 7. But now? Not so much. Waiting for the 60 second bar to fill is sort of like waiting for the juice to come up the straw. Irony.

  33. He cut the cords on the bale of straw and spread around the pig pen. it made good bedding for them and good manure and mulch for the garden……and there ya go…can’t think of anything else.

  34. When i think of a straw, the first thing that pops into my mind is being a kid again, and drinking strawberry milk. The nesquick kind. I only liked to drink it because it was pink, I don’t remember the taste being all that great. Maybe I should try it again, just to see if I would still like it…but i imagine it would taste too sugary for me. Pink is a darn good color

  35. straw always reminds me of cute little country scenes. I imagine a little boy in wranglers wearing his daddy’s cowboy boots with a little girl in a cute summer dress. The two of them, lost in their own thoughts, not caring about the world. Enjoying the little things in life, not the money, the cars, the alcohol, anything.

  36. Straw is long and empty. It has a red stripe. Sometimes it can surprise you and bend, but you have to support it with your lips for it to work correctly.

    by Marcia on 06.13.2012
  37. If there was something I never wanted to be made up of, it is straw. I mean, if you were made up of straw then you might not have a brain. I hear that tends to be a sever issue with people who are made up of straw. Not to mention, what if a wolf comes by and decides to huff and puff and blow you away. I dont want to go out like that.

  38. this is what we used to build mazes in. it was scary and exciting and always a little dark and damp. but oh man when your feet left the solid stacks to land on the lose ones below was it exhilarating… i will forever have a fondness for that yellowy not-so-soft-but-defiantly-more-soft-landing-on-a-pitchfork mound of straw.

  39. used by many to drink beverages. Sometimes I think they’re used in restaurants because they don’t properly wash the glasses, so this is their way of making drinking liquids in the place sanitary. I don’t get it when people use straws to drink hot liquids, you think the plastic would melt into the drink, right?

  40. straw’s a re beautiful creations. The bendy kinds are everyone’s favorite. The way they move and that you don’t hurt your mouth is lovely. I love straw. Straw are the best. They win at life. Truly. I don’t know what to write. It’s about fucking straws!
