    Mick, although the blast em with piss meme is frowned upon from overuse, I reckon your use of it will get no reported posts nor mod action as it's bang on in this case. :D

    Budweiser. Like having sex in a canoe. Fcuking close to water.

    How do you make orange juice with water?

    Clearly by using a straight-edge Jesus.

    Hardly water they can afford to spare now, what with all the radioactive **** leaking into the water supply in Illinois and Minnesota...

    I'd say a few people have drowned in Blessington lake over the years. Yuck.

    There was a dead cow lying in a water supply in Donegal for weeks a few years ago.

    Mmm, beef flavour!

    Im pretty sure reservoir water gets treated before entering municipal supply either way. Which makes me wonder about the officials in Oregon and what kind of corners they're cutting.

    Heard an interview on BBC with the head of water supply.

    The water in this reservoir had already been treated, chlorinated etc. and was ready for drinking.

    He admitted dead birds and rats are regularly fished out of the water, one of only 36 open reservoirs of drinking water left in the US. Seems he took exception to the deliberate act of contamination and would not expect his customers to have to consume same.

    BBC guy pointed out 100ml of urine in 8 million gallons of water was surely not posing any risk of ill effects but the chap stuck to his guns.

    They will try to recoup $7,700.00 it cost to drain the reservoir.

    http://www.independent.ie/world-news/americas/man-pees-in-reservoir-and-8-million-gallons-are-flushed-away-2800747.html



    I mean come on! This is an open air reservoir, completely open to the elements, heaven knows how much bird sh1t has ended up in there over the years.

    We all have taken an accidental gulp in the local swimming pool at some stage and 5 minutes later seen the life guard fishing for a turd left by a not-quite-housetrained 3-year old.

    A bit of human fecal matter in the water only strengthens your immune system, we are all going to end up living in a bubble the way things are going.

    I always knew that a place did exist where the birds flew upsidedown!:)

    Its nothing compared to what a dirty ****er living in a shared house used to do, He hated his house mates and luckily for him and unluckily for the others, The attic entrance was in his room so he used to climb up and relieve himself in the tank everyday, He kept empty bottles in his room and would pee in these. Leave them under the bed a few days and then bring them up to the tank, And they would stink, The house mates always said the water wasn't the best but they suspected nothing, But it got out of hand when he put a turd in the tank, The water was a mouldy colour and supposedly stank. The penny only dropped when the house mates noticed how often he would burst into laughter when they drank water or boiled the kettle, The fact he only ever drank bottled water didnt help too......
