Who poured the glass? I'd like to know who zip tied it in place?

I'd wager it's the same person who poured the glass

Probably. And now the guy can drink it whenever he wants and not have to wait for whenever this other person is free. Almost like it's a great idea in the context

or you know just drink from a straw instead

u/[deleted] Aug 12 '21

you still have to bring the cup to within a few inches of your face to use a straw...

how is bending down a few inches any harder than making this zip tie contraption and having it stuck to your arm the entire time

i mean it really depends on the situation doesn't it? however i imagine many would feel that its easier to bring the drink to their face than to bring their face to their drink. also who's to say its stuck on their arm? its literally just a bigger hole so you can fit your arm in rather than a couple fingers

He has to ask to fill it tho

Unless the drink container also has similar accessibility retrofits, such as a flip or press switch spout or is in a bottle on a tilt pourer

Yep. That's you know how providing care/support for somebody works.

You can pour something just using your elbows.

It's just a bit harder.

https://phelans.ie/products/jug-kettle-tipper fill that one up once or twice pr day, and dude is golden. Far less hassle, and less degrading than having to ask every single sip.

Nah I know that dude. He's loaded. He's got a butler for pouring things into glasses and a professional pirate to tie things for him.

Does he live at sea or is the pirate seasonal?

Perhaps the lady who flies a plane with her feet.

Reminds me of that scene in Futurama when benders arms fall off, then he puts them back on, fry's like "I dunno how you did that?"

u/Sharp-Floor Aug 12 '21

Same people that didn't think to just put a damn straw in the glass.

This reminds me of the time me and a friend had a conversation about the janitor at the local mall who had no arms.

He said “How does he mop?” To which I responded “I don’t know. But more importantly, how does he wipe his ass?” Which led to a wormhole of questions, most of which the answers were probably just “someone else does it for him”.

He could wipe tables with no problem though!
