It has been through a lot in its life. It was born into the world a tiny cup holder in a nice office on one of the higher floors. It was stationed next to a kindly old water fountain that was very supportive - "Oh, cup holder, you're doing such a good job holding those cups. I just know one day you'll grow up big and strong, and maybe work in a convenience store holding those new 4 litre cups." He died, and a watercooler was brought in. He was a very negative cooler, and mostly just wanted to die. The holder was only with the cooler a short time before he was transferred to be a soda cup holder, but in that time he vowed to always stay positive.
