I've never been able to comprehend exactly what sort of idiot drops a buck and a half on a little bottle of water rather than, you know, going to the tap or something, but I'm hoping this is the first sign that soon it will be legal to hunt you to extinction.

Probably the sort of person who likes to drink actual
water rather than chlorine in solution. Isn't San Fran's water fluoridated too? Another good reason to avoid it, or at least get it filtered. Not everyone can be arsed lugging around a Brita jug everywhere though I guess.

Personally I can't stand the taste of filtered tap water. I love the taste of the Thames. Rich in minerals.
After all, all those people who've drunk it before can't be wrong?

What's a Global Warming enthusiast exactly? Someone who drives their kid 1 mile to school in an SUV every day, then sets fire to a polar bear?

Wait, you mean to tell me that you actually have to pay for things from the vending machine, and you don't just have a stocked fridge you can walk over to and grab anything you want?

Ugh you mean to tell me that you actually have to walk over to the company fridge and take out the bottles?? How gauche. In MY job we have the finest champagnes directly transmitted to our bloodstream with the latest in sensate intravenous technology so we don't have to expend the effort to reach for a glass while we're gobbling Heston Blumenthal's eye mucus from the malformed tits of a barely legal size 0 supermodel (while huffing and puffing grotesquely about it on the internet about it, of course)

I hope the pay is acceptable at least.

Yeah, the biggest problem in the US at the moment is definitely bottled water related.
Keep sticking it to the man with these amazing threads you modern day rebel.

Here I was jealous because our (

(You also probably aren't in the office at 11:30 on a Sunday night to conveniently be able to take a picture of it, either.:()
Speaking of Heston Blumenthal, I'm going to be in London in October, and I'm planning on going to the Fat Duck while I'm there. Anyone know how hard it is to get reservations there on a Saturday night?

Actually, you (

Have you never heard of reusable bottles in America? :confused:
