So, what type of water are you drinking? Bottled, spring, distiled, maybe even tap water? I drink tap water, straight from the kitchen sink. I also want to know if there's a taste difference in the types of water mentioned above.
EDIT: I fixed the voting options.
-
No filtered option?
-
As a man, I refuse to drink any water that is not boiling.
-
Does water from drinking fountains count as tap?
-
I drink filtered water, but our filter has gone so long without being replaced I doubt it's doing much good...
-
When it comes to water, I'd tap that.
-
I see what you did there.
Real men drink from the toilet. As of now, I am still just a wee boy.

toilet

I see what you did there.

Best tap water in the whole world right up in here.
-
I only drink steam and freshly-condensed dew.
-
No multiple options? I drink both tap and bottled. But also note that a lot of bottled water is really tap if it doesn't say it's from springs or is distilled---and it's definitely tap if it says "enhanced with minerals for flavor."
Toilet? Even my dog doesn't drink toilet water. :P

I'm a filter man. Pur all the way, mind you, none of that Brita junk.
-
I drink tap water. And speaking of taps...
I woke this morning to a tap on my door. Funny sense of humour my plumber has.
-
I drink tap water from a bottle. :O
-
I pee into a machine that turns my pee into fresh water.
Five points to whoever gets the reference.
-
That's what my dad said 3 days ago.
5 points for me!

No multiple options?
Sorry, but I'm strictly keeping this to a one-option-only poll. Although, this may change in the near future.
And just in case everybody is wondering why I didn't add rainwater as another voting option, here's why (http://www.newton.dep.anl.gov/askasci/wea00/wea00044.htm).
Normally you could drink rainwater without becoming ill.
However, rainwater contains pollutants, soil, plant parts,
insect parts, bacteria, algae, and sometimes radioactive
materials that the rain/snow has washed out of the air.
If filtered with one of the filtering systems that you
can buy in stores nowadays, and then boiled, you could
probably drink the water safely. However, it is safer yet
to get your water from municipal water supplies or from wells
that are frequently tested.

Just because we shouldn't doesn't mean we don't.
Which reminds me, there should be an option for drinking our own sweat.
-
There should also be a Fremen option for those who have managed to create working stillsuits.

What about squeezing that sweaty water out of almonds and drinking that?
It's well-known that drinking almond sweat will increase your vitality 43%, help flush out toxins in your body, and prevent underwater decompression sickness. I would go so far as to say it is nine times safer than any other type of water on earth.
