"Water"

You're meant to drink like 6 glasses or water a day or something aren't you?

Well, it doesn't specify how big the glasses are, like, is it 6 pints or 6 shots or what? I need to know how much water I have to drink to remain thoroughly hydrated!

Also does the amount of water you drink depend on how tall/big you are? Like, would a 6'5 rugby player have to drink more than a 5'1 librarian?

Also do bigger people have bigger organs? Like, does a fat fellow have a bigger heart and lungs etc than a skinny little emo kid?


I've drank 2 litres of water today, hows that? and I didnt use a Britta filter like you homos, straight from the tap. Oh aye.

gerrid offers some very informative tips about water.

I might take them up, minus the colonic.

You can remedy the colonic by drinking warm water and sugar.

I'm sure I read a story in anewspaper years ago about some bloke who died from drinking too much water, for the reasons already given, he completely flushed all the minerals he needed out of his system.

Mind you I read the Sun years ago, so it's likely to have not been actually true.

Anyway, drinking water, IMHO is a huge waste, when you could be tipping that same water over some buxom wench's white t-shirt.

I drink about 8-16 litres a day, depending on what I'm doing.

Usually, I drink from a pint glass. So, I don't need to drink 8, considering there's significantly more than 8 normal glasses.

But I probably do anyway.

I'm thirsty now.

A guy at my old school drank 21 glasses of water, and it came out his nose.

True story.

Our water is from a spring, so if i drink mains, i can instantly taste the chemicals!
Water is also good for cleaning out your liver.

That sounds like the poor mans' way to get Mineral Water. The easiest thing would be to just buy it, minus the chemicals

Not all chemicals will seperate in the cold water, an some of the more harmful ones will not be destroyed completely, only reduced in effect

There's nothing like additives ... delicious immigrant workers' saliva ... mmm

Yeah, that's a god way to avoid having to pay through the nose for water. Buying it! Good one!

There aren't any chemicals that will harm you in water, otherwise they wouldn't put them in. Drinking tap water is not bad for you. The fridge thing is just if you don't like the taste of chlorine.

There isn't really much difference in taste between tap water and mineral water. I've had tap water that tasted vile and bitter, but I've had mineral water that tasted equally bad. I don't concern myself with any of the chemicals anyway, they wouldn't be there if they really were going to do you any harm.
