The internet slang term “Sippy Cup” is used to describe someone who is considered to be sensitive or easily offended. It implies that the person needs to handle things with caution, as if they were drinking from a sippy cup, which is a spill-proof and tamper-proof cup typically used by young children. It is often used humorously to mock someone who is easily upset or takes things too seriously.
Examples:
1. Sarah is such a sippy cup; she gets offended by the smallest jokes and can’t take any kind of criticism without getting upset.
2. John needs to stop being a sippy cup about online comments. It’s just the internet, and people will always have different opinions.
