Do you have a cup in your bathroom?

(For the purposes of this poll, only cups that are used to transport liquid into a person’s mouth count. They may be made of any material, including disposable cups, and any number of cups greater than zero in at least one bathroom counts.)

@siracusa An age back, I got individually monogrammed bathroom cups for myself, my partner and our kid. My partner stared at me and asked "what on earth would I use this for?" and at that moment I realized that there is no mystery greater than other people.

Before two minutes ago, it hadn't occurred to me that not every person has one cup per person in their bathroom(s). I am shook.

@siracusa Mine does not look exactly like this, but I have something in this class. It holds two cups (upside-down), two toothbrushes, and has a cup-like divot for the toothpaste tube. It sticks to the mirror with a suction cup. I think we got ours locally at Daiso.

Comments about how often cups are washed seem like they're coming from a planet where this isn't all taking place in a room filled with cleaning supplies, or where bathrooms aren't usually cleaned on a regular and frequent schedule.

Then again, my current house does have a few things I haven't always had: the toilet is separated from the sink area by a wall, and we don't use the dishwasher in my house except after large parties: we wash dishes by hand after every meal.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot about the comment that complains about toothpaste taste... during a process in which one scrubs the inside of their mouth with toothpaste. Again, it's possible to *wash* cups if they're conveniently near a source of water, but even toothpaste-flavored water seems like it might work out while brushing teeth!
