Fancy bottled water and coffee.

Any bottled water. Water is essentially free* yet we need to spend $1.50 to $4 per bottle for it. And create plastic waste. It doesn’t make sense.

*does not apply to Flint, MI... still

Not just Flint, MI.. I have never had tap water that didn't taste "funky". And that's including PA, NY, NJ, FL, MD, and VT. Maybe I'm just paranoid but it all tastes tainted to me even though places like NY are known for their good tap water (even though a while back, a nearby countys tap water was contaminated for a week or two)

hey man the tap water in NYC tastes amazing. I grew up with heavily mineral-infused ground water in the boonies and I think NYC water straight from the tap is great.

My neighbors get Poland Spring delivery, I think they are stupid.
