For tens of thousands of years humanity tried to figure out how to drink water without risking sh*tting themselves to death, and now we've finally done that with widely available cheap safe H20 everywhere and these chucklef*cks are like "Nah." Amazing:

"Nineteen people fell ill with a diarrheal disease in Montana last year after drinking untreated water that many believed to be from a natural spring but which was, in fact, just creek drainage brimming with pathogenic bacteria.

One person was hospitalized in the outbreak, which ended only after authorities diverted the water source, local health officials reported Thursday in Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report."
