how does your water taste?

our local tap water tastes like poo!

even when made into coffee.

the locals think its because this part of town has lots of
african american and hispanics.

everything goes back to racism here.

but the water really does taste like poo!

in which way do people think affect hispanics and african
americans the quality of water?

comparison.

my water tastes very chalky. it is called 'hard water'
because of this. When I go on holiday the water tastes
funny. Even just going to the south west(devon,etc) it
tastes horrible to me. (I live in Hertfordshire)

You have to use lots of soap with hard water, so it is
strange with softwater, because you get lots of froth and
bubbles when you wash your hands.

My water tastes better than any bottled water, probably
because I am used to it, and also it has a 'strong' chalky
flavour for water.

All the land around here is very chalky, and there are many
post glacial chalk landforms around, which all give the
water its taste, such as the Chilterns,etc.

i think it's much more likely a civil engineering problem. i
don't see how people could affect the quality of the water
unless they were dumping their garbage in the reservoir.

seriously tasted like water. it was unbelievable.

My local water is among the best available. Our local brands
of bottled water are extracted straight from our glaciers.

About five sixths of what I drink is water, and of that,
about five sixths is tap water. I don't know if it has some
sort of health problems, but if it does and its effects only
reduce my life span by 10 years or less, that's fine because
I'll commit suicide when I'm 65 anyway.

hmm.. all I know about Soylent Green is that that guy in
Final Fantasy Unlimited (Kaze) uses it as soil to summon
something...

seems like an interesting movie, however, and even though
I've already guessed what it's about, I'll try to locate it
and have a look.

Sometimes the water here starts to smell fish slightly, but
this doesn't change it's taste. Tastes just like normal tap
water... Plus, it depends on a location, for example, tap
water at my job smells fish today, but doesn't smell it at
home, or vice versa, or sometimes it doesn't smell fish in
both locations, which is the best.

once again, the water tastes like it came straight out of a
pond

the locals think its because this part of town has lots
of
african american and hispanics.

Thats the most ignorant comment i've ever heard, and for you
to generalize that "the locals" say this then you all are
ignorant fucks.

Did you think its because maybe somewhere they dug some
waste and it leaked out in the water. I hope you keep on
drinking that water and grow a tail coming out of your
ass!

p.s im an hispanic, i live in miami where 100% of the people
are hispanic are my water taste GREAT!

cities!

you completely misunderstood what i said.

it's not bad cause the hispanics made it that way.
it's bad cause the city does not put as much effort into
this water treatment plant.

it's an engineering problem spurred on by racism.

everyone is so ready to go to war when they think someone is
being racist. sorry if i didn't use commas in the right
places and it sounded as if i was ignorant.

really, the only reason i mentioned that is cause that's
what i hear from people on this side of town. i would never
encourage that kind of ignorant thought.
