We use a lot of those heavy Crate&Barrel pint tumblers. A drop on linoleum is usually just a spill. A drop onto tile or cement is a foot grenade. The worst is when you drop a glass onto a hard surface - you watch it going down with your heart in your throat. You try to get your foot in the way. Sometimes you do, sometimes you don't. Anyway, the glass kisses mineral, but to your amazement you don't kear KSMRCHSSHH. More of a TINNGGG. the sucker bounced!! the glass rebounds maybe two feet in the air, twists, comes down - a quieter Tinnggg. It flips up less'n a foot, catches a lip, and KSMRCHSSHH breaks into abut ten pieces and some dust. It's like it stored all that energy and saved it for the very end. Harrmmph. Guess it needed breaking anyway; it was demonstrably trapping a small demon.
