Yeah, turning it a bit to the side is no big deal.

However, I recently found out that this makes drinking things a little more viscous absolutely impossible without messing up your shit.

I drank a Kefir, which you normally shake before drinking. So there is a lot of it clinging to the inside of the cap for dear life - up until to that very moment you take a sip. Then, it decides that it had enough and spills on your clothes, face, shoes - whatever the fuck it can possibly get to.

So either you need a glass, let it sit until the cap is mostly empty or lick that cap and look like a complete degenerate.

I will be going to the store later to buy kefir and relive your experience so I can better judge its validity

How'd it go?

It's been 8 hours. Either they ded. Or are too ashamed and embarrassed after getting covered in their drink.

I'm just too ashamed to admit that I went to the store to buy kefir like 5 times and each time bought half of the supermarket's inventory but not kefir.

I finally did though. Cannot confirm the dripping, see comment above.

Thanks for the update, glad you are not ded!

Me too!

So, it took me embarrassingly many shopping trips to remember to buy kefir. But I finally did. For reference, I chose Andechser Bio Kefir. But to be honest I didn't find the lid dripping. I shook before I opened and it was still fine. Repeated that a couple of times. Decided to leave some for the next day, maybe the consistency would change after opening. Still fine. Then I decided to let it warm to room temperature and still no dripping.

So unfortunately I cannot reproduce the scientific findings of @frosch.

Just take your shirt off while drinking.
