I dunno, I actually quite like them when I'm on the go and order a bottled drink, no way to lose the cap :)
Honestly when I first encountered one I hadn't heard of the regulatory reasons for it and I just thought, "oh, neat". I wonder how many people who complain about them were prevented from forming their own opinions by being told to hate it first.
That's what I wonder about many many things these days.
I usually stick to water/tea/coffee, so when I buy something, I'm probably treating myself to a milkshake. I say this because it's only a problem with thicker liquids and drinks that are shaken, but no matter what, that shit is dripping from the lid on my face or shirt, unless I drink in the most awkward angle or enact some uncouth acts with the lid first.
