She threw the tiny pieces of styrofoam up into the air, laughing and spinning as they showered down on her like snow. The lace of her tiny pink dress spread like a fan as she twirled, giggling and laughing, her large brown eyes alight, her cheeks rosy with pleasure. Youth was so beautiful and innocent, I decided, as I watched my youngest daughter play.
i throw the styrofoam cup away, wishing the tang of wine would leave my mouth. furiously, i wipe at my lips, my eyes trailing his back as he walks across the wide lawn, away from me. he’s going towards the house to join the rest of the party. i look down at my heels–why did i choose to wear these? everyone’s wearing jeans.
after debating with myself, i decide to follow him.
One time in 8th grade my goegraphy tacher made a big stink about not using styrofoam because it hurt the environment. But I still use it anyway. I wonder who came up with the word styrofoam. There are some fashion designers who use styrofoam for clothing and it looks just plain silly right?
Lindsey Townsend
I love styrofoam. It’s fun, easy and makes a really good fort. Forts are also fun, and styrofoam makes it all the better. THIS IS SUPER POINTLESS!!! Styrofoam is typically white but comes in a variety of different colors, such as pink or blue or purple or green or yellow or black or brown or even rainbow. Probably I’ve only ever seen white styrofoam but, hey, a gal can dream, right?

Styrofoam makes me think of the abandoned pieces of the white stuff that float in flooding creeks, floating to the sea, covered in mud and pecked by birds. I think about the ozone layer and summer softball games when I used to drink Mr. Pibb with crushed ice from a large Styrofoam cup, keeping my treat cool after a long long game.

Is terrible for the environment but it still commonly used even though you can use a corn-made plastic for all of it;s uses which is more cost effective as well as better for the environment, being that it is 100% biodegradable. It also makes a kind of awesome squeaky sound when you squish it or press it against other things. squeeeeeak.
Mandy
Is a great, great for keeping coffee warm, great for togo foods, and also oddly enough, greta for killing the earth. Which is pretty bad, but I do love a good warm cup of coffee….

Danielle
She threw the cup out of the window.
“What the fuck did you do that for,” he asked, indignant. She shrugged as he pulled the car to the shoulder and got out. He came back with the styrofoam cylinder in hand and threw it in the back seat.
“That shit doesn’t degrade,” he said, but she turned to look out of the window.
Sarah
I love styrofoam my husband would fill a room with styrofoam in fact once he did he came home with a HUUUUUge pile of foam that was headed for the dumpster put it in our barn and 5 years later used it to insulate his new building.
Ange
Styrofoam is a strange thing indeed. It’s useful and useless all at the same time. It’s fascinating and not so much all at the same time. I can only imagine the strange ways I could think of to use styrofoam. You could even make a giant statue like that church but it would look ugly. Like that statue at the church.
Wesley
WHAT KIND OF WORD IS THIS? HOW DO YOU GUYS PICK THESE THINGS? Again, my mind is blank.
neil
i opened the box and a whole pile of styrofoam peanuts piled out. Buried at the bottom of the box was the pair of shoes i had ordered. don’t you love that new sneaker smell. almost makes up for the annoying styrofoam peanuts you just can’t seem to shake off your hands. never did understand how those things held their place.
RJ
it was every where and my brother had just told me that it would be kewl but i new that it would all go wrong but i couldnt tell my mom she would kill me. i stared for a few minutes try to think aboutwhat to do, he was screaming so loudly. i loved him so much, why coul
Justin Wallace

HEY
emma
yeah, SARAGOSSI… you remind me of styrofoam… i want to lick you.
matt huxley
it was just a cup. a stupid white cup. but in that cup i saw my entire life. it was white as snow, and it reminded me of the winter storm i had been caught in when i was little; so long ago now. i wish i could take back the time i’ve already lost… but alas, it’s been too long. so long. and all the winter snowfalls i’ve seen… they’re all gone too.
Jess Barlow
i love styrofoam because of the amazing feeling when you chew it. you know you shouldnt chew it because its bad for you but its just SO SQUIDGY that you cant actually resist. i love jumping into boxes full of styrofoam pieces, i feel like a kid again. then i chew it. squidgy.

Little circles of joy, wrapped in themselves, without thoughts, without tastes, likes and dislikes, without its favorite sandwich or a Twitter account or the greatest pair of sandals in the world or an iPhone 4.
The Styrofoam plate sat at the top of the stairs.The little boy picked it up with a large smile and gently tossed it back down to his older brother like a Frisbee.

I finally got my package in the mail. After peeling off each of the pieces of styrofoam I found it. The illegal love potion.
Styrofoam cups and other objects can be detrimental to the ocean’s health due to its inability to decompose. This is extremely dangerous to sea life which may try to eat it and then become poisoned. Some Styrofoam cups and plates have paint on them, which can have lead in them, which is deadly to sea life and any sort of life on the planet.
Styrofoam. The sound of that stuff, especially rubbing together, gives my older brother the screaming heebie jeebies. That stuff never breaks down. Isn’t that weird to think about? When the world fucking ends, all the styrofoam ever in the world… will still be in the world. That’s gross. Our children’s children’s children will be surrounded by all of our old gross styrofoam.
Katie
work 60 hrs a week , get paid for 45,, do this and dont see my family but be successful and provide for them or dont do what it takes to get the job done and be able to see my wife and kids…
“to be or not to be”
mitch
what can i say
there lies the styrofoam
with its clean white look
lying on the table
how fun would it be to hit my friend on the face
how fun would it be to go outside in these sunny days
What could be more exciting than receiving a package in the mail? She hurriedly took her package to her room, opened it with her knife, and immediately began throwing the styrofoam peanuts all over her room. Half an hour later, she fell asleep, the contents of her package still in the box, and styrofoam peanuts strewn around on her carpet.
styrofoam is weird. it’s not squishy but its not hard. you can rip it. its the second best party cup, only to red cups. it keeps your drink cold or warm without burning/freezing your hand. I can chew on it sometimes. It’s just a weird substance. You can package items in it too. it’ll keep your shit nice and safe like. I wonder what it’s even made out of? Plastic? but its not hard.. so probably not.
chelsea
I unwrap the package slowly. Through the Styrofoam casing I see what has so long alluded me. I hold the object tenderly in my hands, cautiously adhering to the FRAGILE notice on the box.
Alex Thomas
cups are cool made of styrofoam. you can drink coffee out of them and hot chocolate yummmmy! styro foam is 2 words or spelled wrong?
Anna
white sterile foam. boxes, crates, packing up your belongings. breaks apart, clings to clothing, shake it from your hands. superficial, fake.
Grace
Whe I bought my new laptop it was wrapped in styrofoam and I found that very efective in protecting it from any damage. i wilol use this in future when sending any parcels to Australia
Christine
They cluster together, pulled in by the currents. A mile long and deep slurp of plastics and materials, long since thrown away by naive strangers. Behold! Atop the murky mountain of trash lies a styrofoam cup. Solid, clean, as if it came straight out of the factory.
It turned into a hot black burned marshmallow in the microwave. I watched it rotate as the tiny kingdom of foam collapsed in on itself. The popping and hissing sounds it made sounded like millions of little bacterial souls evaporated into nothing.
As in the stuff that those white cups in dentists’ and doctors’ offices are made of? or wait that’s polystyrene, or are they the same thing? just americans call is styrofoam? hmmmmm, something to ponder.
Jasmine
my heart is as fragile as styrofoam
its easy to penetrate and doesnt aways hold.
my heart is as easy to break as styrofoam
its unrepairable, nothing you can fix.
my heart is like styrofoam, a light weight
but inside, it can hold a lot of content.
my heart isnt as as strong styrofoam though
it cant hold too much or it will begin to break.
Gabby
Well you use this to package things which is always fun. I mean don’t you just love styrofoam? It makes a squeaky-ish noise whenever you break it or try to cut into it with a knife. I haven’t actually done that but recently I saw an episode of a TV show where there we policemen and they were solving a case about a wedding cake made of styrofoam after the happy couple cut into the cate. Weird.
Graham
Oh, God. Are we all damned to be this way? Shoved around, pulled apart, poured out, asphyixiated… What are we to you? We are all but styrofoam balls, waiting to be taken and vacuum packed away so people don’t have to see us or remember what we are.
Rose
I lay down on the styrofoam. She promised it wouldn’t hurt. Yeah right. I felt them going into my back through the towel. Ouch.
A bed of nails.
Glam Girl
How ironic.
Today is earth day and we have to talk about styrofoam.
You’re like styrofoam to me.
You’re terribly convenient.
You work so well for so many different things.
You keep me warm when I want to be warm.
But you can also keep me chilled to the bone.
The worst part is that no matter how badly
I want to get rid of you, I can throw you away
over and over again, but you’re never going to really go away.
You’re going to lay on the ground in front of my house
for eternity, because like styrofoam, you can’t just disappear
into the earth.

Styrofoam is possibly, the next worse thing ever invented on Earth. It takes more years to decompose than a plastic bottle. But, it’s crafty indeed.
