I’ve already had three bottles of the stuff today. So far, I have experienced no ill effects.

Or maybe my tolerance is a bit higher than what it used to be. Oh how I yearn for the days when I could be satisfied with one bottle of dihydrogen monoxide a day. The rest of my day was spent consuming some diluted form of the stuff which also contained corn syrup, orange juice and caffeine.

This is the first I've heard of this... "water"...

What does it taste like? Is it more like beer, lager, or spirits? Personally, I'm a scotch man.

Depends what is dissolved into it, otherwise it has no taste and will not conduct electricity.

Hmmm, I've consumed 1.5L of high grade "Hydrox" as well as a similar amount of lower quality street grade cut with laevulose and xanthine alkaloids over the last 8 hours to no apparent ill effect. What's the LD50 on this stuff?

People have builts reservoirs and dams to conserve this noxious chemical. It might be odourless and colourless but by god, it causes floods, people! Plus, who needs water when there's coffee?
