These are all terrible.
OFF TO THE NEGATIVE STEP
I can think of a couple of pubs with pews in them. They do improve a place.
“A glass with a smaller top than bottom to avoid spilling pints”. Hmmm. We all know how successful beer bottles are at disgorging their contents over the table at the slightest provocation. Call yourself scientists!
toppled pint glass = ALL IS LOST. toppled beer bottle = you lose a glug or two depending on reactions.
still the introduction of “a glass with a smaller top than bottom to avoid spilling pints” = like a bottle?
Often the best innovations come from older ideas, like this ‘bottle’ invention, clearly a forgotten ancestor of our GLARAFFE.
