The dribbler
I've lived for a few years now and feel I've learned a lot on that journey and most has enriched my life in some way and leaves me thinking I've made it a pretty good one. Some have been small things and others large but either way they've all combined to help me put together a decent life; have I got it all together? Well, does anyone? Overall I'm happy with it.
One of the things I've learned is how to drink out of a cup or glass; basically, how to drink without dribbling it down the front of my shirt is what I'm getting at; I'm pretty good at it too. But recently there was a glitch in the system, my drinking process, and one could say I developed a drink problem I guess; my shirt paid the price.
I blame the fucken cup
Now, to be fair I've enjoyed coffee from the same cups for many years at one of my local cafes and there's never been a problem before but on the occasion in which I refer to above my shirt wore some of the coffee, my chin too, and I'm pretty sure it was the cups fault; it certainly wasn't mine!
You can see it pictured, the culprit and cause of said coffee-on-shirt-dribble, and I reckon it's pretty clear why it happened...yep, look how thick the fucken walls of that cup are! How's a bloke supposed to drink from that without dribbling it?
You're probably wondering why I dribbled on this particular occasion and not the many other occasions I've sipped coffee from these cups and I know you're expecting a logical and plausible answer but for fuck sake, *I'm not a fucken scientist so who knows...other than maybe the side walls on this particular cup are out of engineering tolerance and that fault has caused it to induce dribbling when used.
I have no clue really, all I know is my shirt wore some of the coffee (and my beard too), and it wasn't my coolest moment. No one saw what happened though, the fateful moment of dribblage, (dribblage isn't a real word, I made that up), so that's ok.
Ok, so fuck it, people did see and any cool-factor I may have had by sitting there looking good how I look was erased in the time it takes to say, oh fuck this mother fucking cup made me dribble my coffee on my fucken shirt. I think some of those cunts thought it was hilarious...and I would have too if it happened to someone else. On this occasion it was I left a little embarrassed and feeling a little victimised by that bastard cup!
So anyway, I know you're all perfect in every way and never make mistakes or do dumb-ass shit like this but...have you ever dribbled a drink on your shirt or dropped food on it when in public? Feel free to tell me about it in the comments; the more dumb-ass it is, the more embarrassing, the funnier I'll find it so feel free to help me have a laugh at your dumbassery and misfortune if you like.

The best way to not dribble on your shirt is to simply just not wear one at all. The alternative is to simply not drink, but that isn't compatible with ongoing life.
I'm going to try the no shirt method all week starting from today and see how it goes. If Kate Collins on the channel nine
newspropaganda reports an indecent exposure then you'll know it's me.Dribblers anonymous gathering. No shirts, all the liquid.
Before I brush my teeth, I have to remove my shirt, or I end up with toothpaste stains all over it, so I'm definitely going to be a founding member.
The exposure is only indecent if you're a laundromat or dry-cleaner owner. Thick walled mugs are a conspiracy by big laundry to make us wash more garments.
Therefore, by removing your shirt before "dribbling", you're saving the Earth by wasting less fluid on washing.
Oh yeah, the tooth paste thing makes you the Grand Poobah of the gathering for sure.
I'm totally with you on the conspiracy theory...it's all the laundromat owner's fault...and Vladimir Putin's as well of course.
Hahahaha, I've been laughing my self out the whole fucken post man, thank you for that. Did it crossed your mind any kind of sue to the builder of that thin-walled-culprit cup? Poor cup, maybe she didn't mean to. Anyway, she might also be thinking it's your fault, perhaps she's commenting her mates there's some kind of problem with your fingers or the way you held it, who knows? She might be preparing some surprise for next time. Heads-up, hahaha, nice one, yeah, nice one.
If you were drinking a drink while laughing and spilled that shit all over your shirt I'd be more impressed. 😁
You reckon I should start legal actin? I'd never thought of that but now you mention it I think I'll call my lawyer and get them onto it straight away. I'll get
millionsprobably nothing in compensation but a massive legal bill...seems totally worth it.Yeah right?
Well,if I were you I'd be prepared, you never know what an agree cup( who feels offended by a dude) and fellows ar capable of, who knows, maybe they are some vikings tribe descendants or somethin' like that. 😁
It could be lucrative.
Yeah it could.
Haha that was funny and embracing also.I have a memory about that dribbling coffee.It was my first date with my girlfriend in a coffee shop.Somehow i made my white t shirt with that coffee.On that time my feeling was horrible!!!
Haha, on your first date? Well it seems she didn't mind and had a second date so I'd say it all ended well.
Maybe you're getting old D:
If it's any consolation I still consistently walk into the doorframes of the house I've lived in for 15 years, and though I don't walk into stationary objects when out and about anymore (unless I'm at work in which case it's the bar chain which has been there for the better part of forever, not even the one that has only been there for the last couple of years, the actual sprung floor and whatever obstacles I set up for an obstacle course, occasionally when I'm testing said obstacle course) I still regularly trip over nothing. Just yesterday I was saying something to J (who was in the kitchen) over my shoulder as I walked back to the computer room, then I turned forward (so I was looking ahead and don't have this excuse) and then shoulder checked the doorframe hard enough to spin but I salvaged by spinning into the room while announcing THERE WAS A DOORFRAME THERE because the thud had attracted J's attention.
Were you able to clean the coffee off your shirt before it left a mark?
Yeah,I'm getting older just like anyone else who happens to be alive,but I'm still rockin' it and that's ok by me. It could be worse, I could be walking into door frames.
As for saving the shirt prior to a stain...yep, I took it off and sucked the coffee out (can't waste good coffee) and the shirt was saved.
Sounds very heroic XD
It surely does right?
I'd say, the cup must be alive and was trying to make a frank on you. That goes the same with my home which I live for 20 years and have clearly memorized every part of it to the point that I could freely navigate the home even when all the lights were out but I am still tripping from time to time as if the house is alive and making a fun of me.
It was surely alive and had a grudge against me. I should have karate chopped it! I reckon you should karate chop your house as well.
I did try it once when a chair bumped in my toe but the chair still gets the final laugh after I hurt my hand in the process.
Yep, that's always a risk I suppose.
It happened that a few drops of the drink fell on my clothes. But that's not the worst thing. It's worse when something falls on your hat from above from a flying bird. It’s even worse when the person at that moment is without a hat.
Oh yeah, birds don't care where they shit and ones hat, or head, could be a target. I reckon the bird flies away saying, fucken bullseye!
One never knows when the dribblage might occur. There is some weird esoterical science to it that we simply cannot understand.
But it is a pain in the chuff!
It can be cool though, can't it?
Ok, maybe not if one is an adult I suppose. 😬
Let's just pretend that it is cool regardless of age!
I reckon that's the way to go. If we do it enough it'll start a new trend and even those cunts the Kardashians will be doing it.
They are totally followers, they'll step in line 😃
Probably make a show about it and make a million bucks!
As long as we are in it it don't matter 😃😃
That's true, it's sure to be a hit!
Uhh... That's a negative G-Dog.
High on the scale of dumbfuckery. Take it from a life long dribbler.
When outside sweaty I just dribble the fuck out of it on purpose. Way cool maybe not, but the cooling effect of the chest ice waterfall is nice.
All the cool people dribble their drinks.
Wait till you guys hit my age. Just be thankful the dribblage is at the entrance and not the exit 😳
Hehe, well, it's great to have such things to look forward to!! 🤣🤣
I'm surprised you didn't ask the Cafe to take the cup to a shooting range and use it as a target. 😀
Or I could just bring some guns to the cafe. Hmm, ok maybe that probably won't work so well. 😄
But why blame the mug... she looks beautiful and she's laughing... just kidding hahahahahaha
Of course it's happened to me but it wasn't drink it was ice cream.... I have a problem with ice cream, yes, definitely, and more if it's a tall ice cream served in a cone... I take a long time to eat it, I taste it and it falls... it's the ice cream's fault, I treat it well and it stains my clothes, can you believe it?
You're right, it's the fault of the cup... and the ice cream!
Blame the ice cream, every time!
Of course! Punishment for ice cream... eat more hahaha
Those are some pretty thick walls! I'm not one to talk though. I was walking through the kitchen with a generic mug the other day and I spilled hot chocolate all over the floor and all down the front of my shirt.
Yet another dribbler, it's amazing how many people are in this club! 🤔
I waz thinkin' that too...
What are they serving coffee in a small soup bowl?
Hot chocolate, ice cream, when I eat a peach or watermelon...
Everything stained my shirts, shirts or pants. Sometimes I also stain when I eat yogurt.
But I do remember one hilarious wardrobe splatter.
We were at a friend's house for a celebration. Dressed formally, in shirts and jackets.
In front of us are bowls of "sarma" that are served in a sauce with pieces of dry meat (look in my post in beersaturday some time ago), they can be seen in some picture. They are wrapped rolls of sauerkraut leaves filled with minced meat and rice.
Namely, a friend chose Sarma for himself with a spoon. He lifted it above the bowl to drain, and when he wanted to put it on his plate, it fell out of his spoon. Where? In the bowl from where he took it. And fell into that sap... Sap that flew from the bowl straight onto my shirt.
Besides the fact that it was a dark, greasy stain, imagine how the smell of smoked meat and sauerkraut combined with my perfume... 🤮
It seems to me that you're an expert shirt stainer and that's pretty awesome! Well done indeed.
Bib is law 🤣
I say a lot of us have a drining problem!
raises hand
When I was a child, I was often asked (after spilling all over myself), "Is your mouth hollow?" 🙂
I reckon so too, that's why we have shirts I guess, to catch the mess.
Hi Galen, although I am a perfect being, I remember very well one day when I was with some friends having some soft drinks, I sneezed at the critical moment of sipping the soda. Although we all laughed I thought my friends were not amused by the unexpected shower. And the fact is that when one reaches 1000 years of life, there is time for many things to happen.
Greetings.
The old soda shower huh? That's an old favourite of many people...except the people who get the shower!
Can I ask why you abbreviate my user name?
Hi Galen. I apologize for doing so. I can't give you an answer because I don't know. I know I have done it sometime, lately. I realize... I can only apologize.
There's no apology required, I was just curious why you did it; a few others do it too and I've asked them also.
Hi Galen, I thank you for your answer, anyway I keep my apologies. In a while I will go through the new publication.
I hope you have a nice day off.
I might be guilty of this also. Sometimes I want to just put the "G" and leave off the "Dog" 👍😁👍
Lol.
Related - not exactly, but
humorous humourousfunny. My son had a girlfriend in high school. This girl's parents were rather strict. They liked my son so he was invited to their house and she to ours. Once when he went to her house to watch movies, the mother walked into the den to see my son eating a popcorn off of her chest. Mother screeched 'what are you doing??' to which he replied 'Paige dropped a piece of popcorn'....momma got pissed and gave him a talking to, to which he replied 'at least we weren't eating ice cream.' I had to go meet with her in town so she could 'talk to me' lol. Paige later went to college to become a sex therapist lol....true storyThe old dropped a popcorn and just picking it up ploy an old favourite of mine. Lol.
So, he ate the popcorn and you got a talking to...did the relationship survive the girl's mother's spazz out?
Nooo, mumsy made it too uncomfortable for the both of them lol. They remain friends though and they have a good story out of it.
Yeah, I thought that might be the case. Anyway, the next time I see a hottie drop popcorn on her chest I'm going to use your son's technique; what could go wrong?
lol in my head I heard 'here, lemme get that for ya'
'Tis the gentlemanly thing to do.
ye, i dribble and other stuff. like i remember the most embarrassing thing was when i got up from the little table at the eatery, and my pushing on the small table caused it to topple over with all my food that i just bought. :( the owner was nice, tho, and gave me a new plate of chow.
It's good to spill some food on one's shirt to save some for later on; one never knows when one might get hungry.
true! 😉😁🤙
Honestly, dribblage happens to the best of us! I once spilled coffee on myself while trying to look cool during a meeting—it wasn’t the best look.
Oh I got fukin' drinkin' problems bro.!!
My issue is with the ice cubes. When your taking a big gulp of a cold drink when your thirsty as fuk.
Ice shifts and wallla. Instant waterfall down your chin and chest.
I always blame the ice. Not my impatience.
Several readers of this post in this giphy...
Ice cubes can be problematic things it seems!
But you gotta agree, they take a cold drink to the next level.
Indeed, I'll agree with that.
