I'm extremely raged right now, I see people applying Bernoulli's equation at fans, atmonizers etc. Let's look at the classic example where you blow through a straw and make liquid be drawn up from a can (through a second straw):

The reason you got the air to flow through your straw is because you are pressurizing the air in your mouth (say to 1.001atm) and it starts flowing down the straw, creating a negative gradient across the straw (from 1.001 atm in your mouth to 1.000atm at the other end).
How the ************ does that make the liquid in the canister rise up the pipe?
