Everybody already knows they do, no need to ask.

I drink everything out of two of the little stir-straws.
Does that mean I’m not a T-man?

Would a T-man even post on a thread about drinking through straws?
Would a T-man drink tea from a sippy cup?

Oh, also if you use a straw, you get to rip off half of the paper cover and then shoot the remaining half at someone as a missle.

Real T-man use straws. Their biceps size doesn’t allow them to drink without them.
if you drink through a straw you wouldnt swoosh it in your mouth hence faster absorption to the stomach maybe? who knows. but yes case race is fun but we use 30 racks instead of regular cases. Do none of you play beer league softball??!! easily down a couple cases in a day.
wine enema gets you drunk too. T-Man behavior? I think not

My take on it is this:
As you suck through the straw, you create negative pressure inside the oral cavity. This draws blood to the suface of the oral mucosa. Many drugs can be absorbed sublingually and this includes alcohol.
The sub mucosa is thin, vascular and easily permeated and as a bonus, drugs entering the blood stream this way, bypass the liver, meaning that more of the drug is available since it is not metabolised by the liver.
You are making the absobtion efficiency of the oral cavity that much greater by using a straw.
EDIT: The wine enema works the same way but in the other end.[/quote]
AS, your posts are the reason I read this website. Awesome.

Each sip of a drink lasts - what? - a second or so? Wouldn’t it make sense that in order for sublingual absorption to not only take place, but have a noticeable effect on the individual (above and beyond just drinking the alcohol), that it would have to be held there for a greater duration?
I, personally, consider this to be a myth. The only truth in it would be in the individual, and whether or not he/she happens to drink faster when using a straw (I know I do).

lol.
It doesn’t make a bit of difference if you drink with a straw or not.
