What do you do if you spill a drink?

Whenever my husband spills his drink (which is like really often, like twice a week, and it’s almost always water, sometimes beer, or Gatorade) he flips out and screams and curses, he’s like OH NO FUCKFUCKFUCKFUCK it is literally the most dramatic reaction I’ve ever seen, even my mom saw it once at her house and she was like damm wtf why did he flip out about water. Then, this weekend, his mom spilled a drink and she didn’t curse, but she just screamed for about a minute (kind of like if you saw a ghost or something scary) so I figured out why he has such a dramatic reaction to spilled water.

If I spill something or drop something I just clean it.

Curious as to what most people do to spills
