Tap water is awesome when you are home and it doesn't taste like crap. Bottled water is awesome when I am at the gym, or out and about. I really don't get why

Tap water is awesome when you are home and it doesn't taste like crap. Bottled water is awesome when I am at the gym, or out and about. I really don't get why the left hate water bottles so fucking much, it has become quite tiresome.

Because they are an environmental disaster with no need for them. Get a refillable water bottle and take that to the gym.

  Why does the US continue to let plastic bottles of water (or anything) be sold? I agree that it's terrible for the environment. I'm guessing that the reason is "lobbyists" :(

    Is the US somehow unique in selling plastic bottles? Why don't those environmentally conscious countries ban plastic?

Why not fill a bottle with tap water from your home and take that with you when out and about?

I really don't get why the left hate water bottles so fucking much, it has become quite tiresome. What I don't get is this lazy, ridiculous partisan politics bullshit. That has become extraordinarily tiresome. "The left hate water bottles". WTF are you talking about? A water bottle is a device for putting water in. WTF does left-leaning politics have to say about that? Did the British labour party have elimination of water bottles as one of their manifesto pledges? Did the Weather Underground declare war on water bottles? Maybe I missed the bit where Al Gore [1] invoked a committee examining how to remove the scourge of water bottles. When Baader-Meinhof assassinated a banker, did they have a parallel plot to take out a bottle factory? Did the Comintern have a working party identifying water bottle plants to eliminate after the revolutions? [1] Who actually represents a right-wing political party, but WTF, I'm already flowing [2]. [2] Pun intended.
