I’m in my 40s and I still love doing this. My wife hates it. Hates it so much.

I also find they like it when you scrunch up the straw wrapper and put a few drops of liquid on it to make it expand.

What’s really fun is that there’s a real musical instrument that uses this exact same principle - the Cuica. It’s that quirky sound you often hear in Samba and other latin jazz music. https://youtu.be/7J2WZGCCpEk

I got yelled at as an adult when I did this ONCE by accident in a movie theatre in England, British people really toon their cinema seriously...

Edit. Nevermind, I forgot it was just my GF at the time who was yelling at me.
