2012, Year of the Red Solo Cup

2012 is the year of the RED SOLO CUP.

Inanity will and must live. After all, this might be the last year for the world. If, in the event 2013 happens, the Mayans will be rendered inaccurate prognosticators and a big party will be in order... Say party, then say red solo cup. But if the those Central American wizards are right and life ends this annum, say party NOW and then say red solo cup. No matter how it works out, 2012 is a RED SOLO CUP year.

Shucks, this cup is the ONE. Just the right size with that hard, yet, flexie lip. Beer and other fermented libations are made for Toby Keith's friend. In fact, in an informal study, 77% of random Camden street strollers beamed like fog lights when they were presented with a red solo cup (filled, of course.) Everybody born after 1960 knows what a red solo cup is and what it means. For those older, take a stool softener now...

Interestingly, other color solo cups are relative fails. Yes, the cup can be gotten in blues and yellows and other hues, but red is the only color for those in the know. It's red or it's nothing! Some things are only a hit in red... blue lips, yellow Ferraris are misses.

Taking only 14 years to degrade, the red solo cup is green. Just for comparison, styrofoam cups take 500 years to decompose. Besides, styrofoam containers do not say, "Let's have a party!"

Red solo cup

I fill you up

Let's have a party

Let's have a party

I love you red solo cup

I lift you up

Proceed to party

Experience teaches that the plastic of the solo is prone to cold brittleness. Being mindful of that fact will save a party goer the embarrassment of a side crack-leak. Care must be exercised in pushing the sides of the container in and out while talking up and cavorting. But the availability, stackability and utility of this conveyance far exceed any perceived negatives...

As a consequence of the red solo cup's association with fun times, the mere image of the cup brings joy. Smiles and tumescence are served up like cheap lager on a Thursday night at Clancy's in Neptune NJ when the cup is espyed. Although not confirmed yet, the rumor is that Mitt Romney will be wearing a red solo cup necktie at his victory speech in Iowa. Mitt is so dull that the tie could humanize and enliven him... nah, he's a bore-ass no matter what. Hmmm, do Mormons drink out of red solo cups?

Well, it is 2012, the year of the RED SOLO CUP. Drink-up, have fun and make a difference.
