So This Is Going In My Blog

So I had to go to the doctor this week (re: my achey breaky heart), which is another hypochondriac post all together, and found this beauty posted in the restroom:

Toilets and urinals
flushed with reclaimed water

Do not drink water

Okay...seriously? Like this was enough of an issue that someone actually had to make a sign for it warning people not to do this? I mean, someone must have done this already for the sign making people to do it in the first place. They must've had a meeting about it. We've got another one, folks...let's get those creative juices flowing. I want ideas on my desk by 3:00.

I imagine parched people holding their empty water bottles down in the toilet...just-a filling up. Really, are we that desperate? How about a water fountain people? There's a few of those placed here and there in the hospital. Or that thing called, the sink? The toilet would be the last option on my list. No wait, nope. Not even the toilet, cuz it's a toilet!

Seriously people.

You know every disclaimer has a story. My husband's mp3 player says on the package "not for human consumption." Ummm...did someone think that eating it would be a good idea?!

Uh.... LMAO!

Yuck, yuck, double yuck! Are some people really THAT stupid?!? (I'm guessing. They have the Darwin awards for a reason.)

Maybe they had to post it because there is a city east of where I live that says don't drink from your hose because it's ditch water...go figure.

I love warning labels. I remember LMAO over one on my curling iron a few years ago. "Don't use while sleeping."

Oh yuck. The thought of someone drinking toilet water just grosses me out. I don't even like seeing animals do it.

Oh what we do to protect ourselves from lawsuits....

Now if it WASN'T reclaimed water, would it be ok to drink?

Opps, but it was just such a big pretty water holder.
