Why do we still use glass?

[Brian Marwood]

It’s fragile and dangerous. Surely in this technological world we live in there is a better alternative that doesn’t break and cut people?

Plastic ?

[Way_Out_West]

Because it's cheap to source, cheap to produce and infinitely recyclable?

it's difficult to sup pints out of contacts

An irritation of mine in our house is a when the kids choose a mug for a soft drink instead of a glass.

Did you just drop a glass and cut yourself?

Commodity plastic is nowhere near as good as glass. You clean it a few times and it hazes up and you can't see through it.

That should be illegal!

Cutting toast in half lengthways is pretty bad in my book. I occasionally do it just to see how much it messes with my brain.

I do that to my girlfriend just to annoy her

Well the hardened plastic glasses given out at sporting events are recyclable but the drink just doesn’t taste the same as from a glass in a pub. Glass is dangerous if in the hands of a d1ckhead or Frank Spencer.

If you drop a glass in a pub these days it shatters like safety glass, not like old says when you got dangerous shards.

I bought a big sheet of tinted glass for a table (glass made to measure by a great bloke in Boro) told him I was shïtting myself about handling it and said it was the same with the stuff outside on the tables. He explained about it being safety glass and smashed a piece to show me. perfectly safe. Said it happened all the time when they were handling big sheets. Put my mind at rest.

I prefer a mug to drink red wine out of.. something with a slogan on

 

[Cambsred]

I invented a substitute for glass using water and a big freezer.

Never caught on.
