Water can have different tastes, it depends largely in the minerals in it, if you were implying that water doesn't have a taste.

I know someone like that OP. He drinks a ton of diet pepsi. Though I've heard he actually does like the taste of Smart Water™.

Personally, I like the taste of my tap water. My mother actually works for the water treatment department of my city, and I've been in the buildings that have the huge filters and pump water out to 90% of the city.

u r fookn stupid m8

I know it's a bit petty and childish, but as soon as I hear someone tell me they don't like/drink water, I immediately start to dislike them, and make a point to not associate with them any longer.

It may be irrational, but I don't care. You're too fucking stupid and whitetrash to tolerate, let alone enjoy a largely tasteless liquid that you yourself and the species you belong to depends on and owes it's existence to. You don't belong on this planet.

Have you ever went anywhere that doesn't have a Starbucks?

>>4477520
What if I don't like to drink certain water?

our tap water here has a strong taste of lime and water filters only help so much.

We have a certain preference for different brands too. We like Aquafina and "Fancy" brands like Fiji and Smart Water, but dont' really like Dasani.

I love the taste of water in our town, but the next town over has horrible tasting water. I don't know why all my friends who live there say theirs is better than ours. Then again, they don't usually drink water in general.

>>4477536
You're still drinking water, so that's absolutely fine.

It's more directed towards the scum that refuses to drink anything that isn't soda. Because water doesn't taste like liquid candy they act like it's fucking poison or something.

>>4477592
People who treat everything other than water like it's poison are just as bad.

>>4477537

>>4477879

>>4477835
Maybe it was a dirty cup you were using.

>>4477883
So many people give me the same reaction too, even at restaurants when I was younger.
9 times out of 10 I'd prefer cold water or water with a little bit of lemon in it to fizzy drinks.

>>4477464
But water doesn't even have a flavor. Besides I used to love water when I was younger.

>>4477835
I woke hungover as shit at my buddies house once, in a pretty dumpy part of town. My first instinct when I wake up hungover is to chug as much water as possible. No one told me that their water was bad and you had to let the sink run for a minute to get anything drinkable.

Threw up all day.

This bunch of girls at my work all get scared of BPA or some plastic shit leeching from drink bottles so they all drink out of either glass bottles or stainless drink bottles.
They didn't look impressed when I told them that the tap water they are drinking has traveled through about 50 miles of plastic water main pipes that are in some parts 60+ years old.
Nobody in the 1950's was installing BPA free water mains or even knew what BPA was.

>>4477499

>Not living in the country with world's purest groundwater

It's the granite's natural radiation that gives the nice zing to it!

So like what is the safest water to drink?

>>4477942
Only drink pure rain water. It replenishes your precious bodily fluids.

The water in NY tastes like chlorine and diarrhea. I can see why someone would avoid drinking that. Even their bottled water tastes like ass in comparison to the Scandinavian tap water.

>>4477942
Idustrial water made for chemical purposes. GRade S.1500 dollars per liter.

>>4477976
That better be pure dihydrogen monoxide, or I am going to be *very* upset.

*Pulls out Google Wallet*

>>4477525
Enjoy your sinkholes.

I like the taste of most water
well water is weird & Evian has an odd taste too
I have a Brita filter at home that I like a lot but I have no problems drinking straight from the tap
to me, water isn't about flavor its about rehydrating

>>4478726
>water isn't about flavor its about rehydrating
I thought this too, when I lived on Lake Superior.

Now my water comes from a river, and in the summer I use a Brita pitcher and leave it in the fridge.

>>4477994
*headbutts your stupid face*

>>4477499
They put tap water in pepsi.

>>4477994
Protip: pure dihydrogen monoxide, ie what they use for chemical and computer cleaning is actually bad for you

>>4477480

I had a friend whose PhD thesis was about improving water quality. She told me it's not just minerals that are responsible for taste issues in tap water. Sometimes it's by-products of water decontamination that can be the issue (halogenated phenols are especially problematic, as some can be detected by taste in parts per billion concentration).

Live in the country, and I dug my own well.

This water tastes so sweet and refreshing.

>not having a master race reverse osmosis filter that takes out those bitter-ass minerals

>>4479249

Actual useful content on /ck/? Thanks!

In the past, this is the equivalent of saying "I don't like the way water tastes, just give me an ale"

>>4479548
People in the Middle Ages used to drink beer or wine instead of water because it generally wasn't safe to drink.
Nowadays, in the First World, the only reason people avoid water is because they were raised on soda and now shun anything other than sugary diabetes goop.

>>4479585
Why didn’t they just boil it?

>>4479587
>boil it?

Too much energy required.

>>4479589
Not more than you would use for brewing beer.

>>4479595
why have boiled water when you can have beer?

>>4479602
Maybe someone didn’t like beer but he could only get dirty water or beer.
Think about his feelings.

>>4477901
that's what i thought so i used my hands as a cup in the bathroom.
it was just the water.

>>4479587
They didn't realize that boiling would purify it.
This is the Dark Ages we're talking about.

Nigger you just went full retard. Most of the older water mains were made of a pottery like clay material. The name of it escapes me but I've never heard of plastic water mains. Not in my area at least and I've helped dig them up.

Water tastes like shit give me soda or give me death

>>4479236

No. No it's not. Or you'd die when you drink RO water. Which you don't.

You're a fucking retard for thinking this.

>>4480035

I actually don't like the taste of cold water. I only drink it warm temperature or up. Cold water just tastes strange to me.

>>4477520
Thats very childish, and im sure the people you avoid are not missing anything.
My towns non fluoridated, its awesome.

My former roommate's excuse for not drinking water: "I get tired of its taste. Fish poop in water and I don't want to drink fish poop."

He used to exclusively drink Coca-Cola. If we went somewhere that didn't have it, he would ask the servers to "Mix Mountain Dew and Sprite/7-up/Sierra Mist half and half with each other, I need to go easy on my kidneys."

Everybody thinking that should be killed. Your ancestors drank only water for millenia, youre genetically programmed to like it.

Can I at least say I don't like the taste of some kinds of water? I fucking love water, but not rust and lime.

Water can taste of any number of things, depending on where it came from and what's dissolved in it.

Water sommeliers can pass blinded testing.

Filtered waters, like Dasani, add salts and minerals back in to make their waters taste of water.

Unless you're Asian, in which case tea.

That stupid MIO shit.
That fucking bullshit product makes me embarrassed to be an American.
Its so fucking stereotypical.
"Ohhh waaaaahhhh we don't like the way water tastes. We can't fucking bear to drink it without some disgusting artificially flavored syrup in it. Lets make it fucking portable so we can drink it EVERYWHERE! IT HAS ELECTROLYTES!!!!!!!!"

But seriously some water tastes awful, it can especially go wrong with bottled water. One time I bought a great value pack from wal-mart and I had to throw it out because the water literally tasted like it was contaminated with plastic. It even smelled like plastic.

It is morons like you that keep the bottle water industry going. Keep buying the same municipal water I drink for a ridiculous amount more, retard.

>>4479870

You've never heard of PVC?

>>4481854

For branch lines, sure. Not for mains.

>>4481565

typical baby. MIO isn't syrupy and the sugar use din it isn't even bad for you.

>meh don't care
>go to a place that has good tasting water
>drink 4-5 cups of it

Having tasted many different brands of bottled water coming from different streams, I can understand this: there are many minerals in water that contribute to the taste of the water. I know a water with so much magnesium in I can't fucking drink more than a glass of.


Or maybe I've missed OP's point (I didn't read the thread).

>>4481884

No, most modern mains are done with PVC, metal is legacy.

Does he not know there is water in coke?

What about all the female hormones found in tap water? They come from all the women taking The Pill and flushing their estrogen out of their bodies in their urine. Our filtration systems don't remove them.

You have boobs and small testes because of tap water.

>>4484849
tap water is distilled between the sewage supply and the drinking supply
also, simply boiling kills the protien strands forming pharamones, that's why you have to keep your birth control in a cool dry place. if it gets too hot it wont be effective.

your boobs and small testes are from synthetic growth hormones monsanto puts in your milk.
same reason the rate of women with polycystic ovarian syndrome has skyrocketed in the last two decades
