It depends on the beverage and the container. With my vacuum-insulated large tumblers, I will absolutely use a straw. With my tea mugs, please, one does not use a straw there. That would be Wrong.

Straw for cold drinks.
People who use straws suck.

If you have younger siblings, you might have discovered that straws significantly extends the effective range when in an all out spitwad war.

Owala water bottle best of both worlds!
@ragingredd I buy them and remove the straw, which is better in my world
Words fail me.
The irony is that the cup is also the same plastic. Ah man what happened to just reusing glass and being careful.
