    Yeah, that works real well, until you wear your potassium metal shirt.

      Potassium Metal is my favorite music genre.

        I’m more a fan of potassium pop, or as some call it “K-pop”.

          Nah, Potassium Metal is heavy metal performed by people who always make sure to get their daily vitamins and minerals and also hydrate enough without ovethydrating.

          They mostly sing about tragic romance.

      mm nak infused synthetic fabric my beloved, it’s actually marketable as “anti sweat” because it will fucking explode if you sweat.

    That’s a solid 50% of the reason I pretty much only drink water. I’m almost 40 and still miss my mouth and pour stuff right down my shirt like I’m new here.

        Lifelong lack of grace. I walk into walls and trip over nothing and knock things over. Sometimes it’s like watching the 3 Stooges.

          I feel your pain! I’m 50 and I still routinely miss my own mouth when drinking - it’s one of the reasons I stick with black coffee.

      Ordering anything other than water at a restaurant is just entirely too expensive.

          i hate that you know what kids in the hall is. Such a culture shock i love that show.

          I’ll try and catch you out somewhere along the line here, if you know all of these i’m actually fucking over.

          • WKUK (whitest kids you know)
          • tim and eric (all of them, everybody knows them)
          • mr show with bob and david

          some of my absolutely favorites, including kids in the hall. Chances are if you picked up a KITH compilation on youtube, that it may have been mine.

      I was caring for someone on a thickened liquids restriction and it is… awful. So many great things are made not great by thickening.

          People who have survived things like a stroke might have trouble swallowing liquids without choking, so you have to thicken them.

          ETA; I think memory care patients go that way towards the end, too, like Alzheimer’s.

      Isn’t that just heavy water (D2O) chemically? Wouldn’t that kill you if you consume too much of it?

      Am I deserving of downvotes?

          Hopefully they filter it themselves or have well water clean enough to drink. But that does seem like a tap water type of response, lol.

          I think the message they’re trying to convey is that plastic is bad for the environment and bottled water is one of the biggest contributers.

        Well, lucky you, because you can buy the powder and add it to any water.

        Also, yes, fuck bottled water.

    On the other end of the spectrum is soap. You spill a bottle of soap. What are you going to clean it with? More soap? Congratulations. You’ve just made the problem worse.

        Yeah but the implied premise is being caught out by a spill randomly where you just have to deal…

    the day that tumblr stops being the way that tumblr is, is the day that the internet is officially dead.
