Glass water bottles

[DervVW]

Maybe this belongs in the health section?
Just lately everyone at work seems to be bringing in bottles of water and specfically glass, because apparently you dont get plastic poison...?

Anyway some people are now using vodka bottles... with water rather than vodka obv... so how can I make water look like jack daniels?

Yeah im sooooo crazy...

Tea. And doesn't taste too bad cold either

People take water to work? How very odd.

Bah!

Drink very little for two days and hold your bladder. The third day will produce a beautiful JD coloured urine.

I know that some employees of (at least) one insurance broking company in the City of London who fill their glass water bottles with vodka every friday afternoon, just to start the weekend a little early.

I'm going to start, the stuff that comes out of the taps here is rank. It makes my brew taste off. So empty 6 pint milk bottle full of water from my tap at home is coming with me.

We are not posh enough to have water coolers

Water bottles are BPA free. What poisoning are they worried about?

Their argument is bks; it'll be the latest trend to have glass bottles.

I like the sound of that. But tell me that you/the other pretend boozers arent just pouring a glass of water out to drink, but are instead lining up shotglasses which you proceed to loudly throw back, and then slam upside down on the desk while going "aaaaarrrrrgh" - yes?

I have no idea. Having said that, I have always understood that mineral water has a sell by date, not because the water goes off, but because the bottles break down to some extent over time. This might be what they're worried about. Even if the broken down bottle does not impart poison, it can make the water taste st.

Either way, bringing water to work is weird (assuming suitable water available in the office) irrespective of bottle material.

this is the way to go...

But for clarification this is an office enviroment, water is availble from the tap and vending machine.

Glass bottles with a charcoal filter rattling around inside seem to be the in thing here.

Coz BPA causes autism.

So some scientists called Oprah, Beyoncé or who ever said it does.

Forgetting of course that tap water contains

Liquified chlorine
Fluorosilicic acid
Aluminium sulphate
Calcium hydroxide
Sodium silicofluoride
Chlorine
Fluorine compounds
Trihalomethanes (THMs)
Hormones
Nitrates
Pesticides

Salts of:
arsenic
radium
aluminium
copper
lead
mercury
cadmium
barium


Plus whatever other contaminants it picks up.

Don't forget about DHMO contamination too, in the UK alone around 400 people a year die from inhaling the stuff, and I bet you'll find traces of it in your colleagues water bottles.

This is PH, you should be using a metal petrol can for carrying your water (I suggest a new one as otherwise the water will not taste too good).
When you want a drink just attach the filler nozzle, tilt your head back and pour directly into your mouth.
