"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.

I think if you eat all your fruit and veg for the day, you can take a glass of water away from that.

For some reason I had a big rofl moment after reading your post orty.

It seemed completely innocent and sciency like a kid reporting back what he learnt today to his mum. I even put in the Paschetti type voice on cucumber.

I'm insane...

You dont have to drink that much water as you get water from food as well. Some foods have more water in them than others like Cucumbers and Lettuce.

You know when you stroke camels, they spit at you?

Well I saw one rearing up (dunno how, they're bloody quick) whilst I was petting it once, and in defence I put my hand over it's mouth.

A nice "licking" ensued"

I demand to know how you know what that's like.

Also, to add onto points Emitime and gordenisagaybys made:

Emitime isn't quite right. The diluting of the blood only occurs when you're taking ecstacy or something that causes the blood vessels to open up.

gorden however, is more accurate in saying trouble would occur with the lack of minerals and salts which are used up or sweated out.

Incidentally, some dogs like licking people to get the salt off of the surface of the skin.

I woke up 5 times the other night just to rehydrate after doing some heavy training.

I drank near to 8 and a bit litres. How the hell can my body absorb that much, yet not go to the loo once?

I must have been as dry as a camels tongue...

Your basic womb comes flatpacked most of the time anyway. Like Ikea. And, like Ikea, it needs a man to get assembled.
