[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know about you guys, but wine in a sippy cup sounds pretty good to me right now.... [/quote]

I don't get the wine in a sippy cup reference...? People think putting wine in a sippy cup and drinking it is...? Subversive? Are they making a joke? I genuinally don't follow. [/quote]

I don’t get it either. Why a sippy cup? Why not just  a regular glass? Don’t understand.[/quote]

This is why we all want to move back.

My understanding is that since sippy cups are for kids, drinking wine out of them is edgy — like, you’re a ‘cool, funny, doesn’t take herself too seriously’ mom. Maybe a little too harried to have a clean adult wine class.

Ok I am starting to understand. They see it as madcap and whimsical, with a measure of not giving a f***.
Yes, that would be grounds for moving for me too.

I’m not sure if you’re being sarcastic but it’s a good indicator of the broader underlying culture ... not an issue where I am - here it’s about looking 100% put together and trying to be trendy and feeling self-important and powerful when, having lived in both LA and DC, everyone is pretty darn the opposite of any of that.[/quote]
