Bottled water is my #1 pet peeve.
It’s really discouraging to see so many people in public with plastic water bottles. People know this stuff is probably the greatest modern era con, right? Bottled water comes in Polyethylene terephthalate bottles, which is rarely recycled and requires a great deal of energy to produce. Don’t forget that it costs more than gasoline, while you could be getting the same amount of tap water for less than a penny. The majority of these horrendous costs are attributed to the packaging, not the actual water, of which is no more healthy than tap water in most regions. In fact, a countless number of studies have found considerable amounts of bacteria to be prevalent in many popular brands of bottled waters. So, why do we continue to buy this junk? What’s the point?
Empower yourself. Bottle your own water.

I cringe everytime I see someone drinking out of a non reusable bottle. Stop being so stupid.
Girl in college asked me where I got my stainless steel bottle the other day. She got her own over the weekend and had it with her monday.
These guys make great bottles. Use it fifteen times (possibly less) and you’ve made your money back.](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lhd0f2keE51qzhl7go1_500.jpg)
