What is the Water like where You Live?

As in drinking water.

Here it's pretty good. Probably better than bottled water, but perhaps that isn't saying much.

It's fine here too; ours is collected as rain and runoff from peaty moorland to the south, so it's very soft and tastes better than bottled water if it's left to stand for a day for the chlorine to dissipate.  I store it in a couple of big jugs so that I've always got a supply of dechlorinated water.

For the most part fine unless they are adjusting something or there is a big pipe break nearby then it takes awhile for everything to get back to normal

Wanna sip?



Actually this photo makes it look alot better than it actually is, normally the river is the color of coffee.

They purify it and run in through ancient lines that break every 3 weeks or so in cold weather, hard water, and it's sometimes whitish from all the chemicals.  :P

Our water (Indiana) is OK to piss in, but I wouldn't want to drink it.

Perhaps all that pissing in the water hasn't helped.

(obviously you are referring to its use as in the toilet).

I do something similar, I fill up a cleaned out 3 litre plastic milk bottle with water and keep it in the fridge. I find cooler water tastes better to me.

Chlorinated and flourodated.

I don't notice the taste of chlorine when drinking the water, but it's noticable when snorted.

Why are you snorting drinking water?

When ever any water gets up my nose, it feels like a burning pain beyond pain.

Ours is chlorinated and filtered from this body of water.

It tastes exactly as it sounds.

Cleaning out my nasal passages after insufflating drugs.

Noses are highly sensitive to chemicals on contact.
