1. One must have something to
urinate in after consuming that much water.

Hard to do with a Camelbak, unless it doubles as a catheter. :D

8. ***Shhhh...I carry one in my car at all times****Shhhh....
The medication I am on dictates that I drink a lot ( I mean A LOT ) of water so as not to become dehydrated. Couple that with sometimes being on the road all day for work, in and out of the car...and weather, and it sure beats the heck out of continuously stopping for a fillup. Now, would I bring one to a meeting? Hell no.

:P I am bored this morning. Only I shouldn't be. I've got a ton of things I "could be" doing, I just don't "want to" do them. :) :hi:

14. Why Do They Need To Fill Them Up At The Gym While People Line Up?
Are they afraid they won't make it around the track (1/8 mile?) ???

17. That is actually true
I started this as a joke, but people at work do that, too -- they take five minutes to fill up a bottle at the water fountain while all you want is a quick drink!

15. I hope i'm not offending but
I have a 16oz one now at work.... I thought it was better then tossing the paper cups work supplies and i don't have to go up front every 20 mins to get a small drop of water ...(just twice a day now)... I don't carry it around except going up and back to fill up... Otherwise on the weekends i hike miles at a time and water bottles are nice and cheaper the buying those at the c-store.
