Until I was maybe 15, I had never had a glass of water in my life. It never really occurred to me before then that you could actually drink the stuff.
I tried it, it fucking sucked.
It made me gag, I couldn't finish the glass.

To this day I can count the times ive had a full glass of water on my fingers.

1. How long until I die an unnatural death?
2. Anyone else with a similar experience?
3. Anything I can do to actually stomach the water / add to it so im not drinking gatorade soda and juice all the time?

Ha! Drink some water. 3/4 of your body is made of the stuff. You'll be fine I promise.

Who says you need to drink water, you probably substituted all water with fruit juice or ice tea or whatever, which is the same shit.

If you don't like the taste of water, get a water filter. It removes particles in the water that makes it taste awful.

I used to have trouble drinking water straight, but after getting one of those Pur filter pitchers, it's nowhere near as bad as it was unfiltered.

Now it tastes like nothing.

I started drinking 64 ounces every day a week ago. I finally found out the benifits from some forum.

No, flavored water is not an option.

OP here, not a troll.
I really am an idiot who never drank water as a kid.
Ill try the water filter thing and see if it changes anything.

Are those powder additives like Crystal Light just as bad for you as juice/soda would be anyway?

If you have any real trouble with drinking water straight, get one of those Pur filters with flavor options. It's an addition to the filter where you can add Pur concentrated flavoring to the water as you pour it.

I have it and it helped me like the taste of plain water faster.

Bull-motherfucking-shit. But I'm going to feed you anyways, just to see what your answer is.
When you went to the park, or were on the playground at school (you did go to school right???), and you were thirsty, did you just drink Gatorade out of a fucking Camelbak? No, you went to the waterfountain. You're a giant asshole for trolling here.
<---- /b/ is that way

If the only option was a drinking fountain I would sip enough to get my mouth moist but I would not drink a substantial amount. I brought an extra juice to school for "snack" (15 min break after 2nd period)

I played soccer as a kid and drank mostly those Capri-sun drinks and gatorade.

Holy shit I thought I was the only one.

I hate water. It's disgusting. All I can taste are the chemicals.

To answer your questions, though, I'm 19 and have never had any problems with not drinking water.

Honestly, I think I'm better off for depriving my body of it. My body has, in a sense, learned to cope, and I never get dehydrated or fatigued when exercising, as opposed to my friends who drink 2+ bottles/day. If they don't drink, they complain of headaches and such.

tldr; We're all better off depriving ourselves of water.

To add on, all I drink is soda, fruit juice (rarely), and gatorade (rarely).

Thats a bad idea.
Through highschool and my first few years of college all I drank was soda. At 19 I had my first kidney stone from the acid buildup in soda. I thought my body "adjusted" to the soda and it was my "water", but it didnt. When I switched from soda to gatorade I started gaining weight uncontrollably, its all bad news.

tdlr; Get out while you still can, drink something else.

Drink whatever you want. Drinking water is one of those bullshit health myths. Anything you drink contains water as do most foods.

I was the same as you, but then I found out when I was like 20 that water is quite nice when it is in a bottle, (like a pump bottle for NZers and Aus ppl).
It's so much better when you are driping out of the teat thing rather than drinking from a glass. I think it is due to the fact that you can't smell it

Water from a bottle is so awful. I don't know if the plastic ruins the flavor or if they do something else to it, but it's terrible.

OP, do you want to know how to appreciate the true human thirst for water?

First, get some water. Preferably bottled, good-tasting water in a big container, over a liter. Let it sit somewhere cold.

Now, on a hot day, go run until you can't run anymore. Run until the sweat turns your clothing soggy and gross. Make sure to drink nothing before, or during this run. Shut the fuck up you pussy, keep running until your legs give out and you can barely get into your front door.

Now open that water.

Yes it is. You obviously have no idea.
I prefer water that tastes a little salty, due to great quantities of minerals in such water.
Water does have a taste. Idiot.

I can drink water and tell you the approximate price it has. Water has a taste. It's subtle, though.
>> The Dark One !UYklPQPVhw

Correction: filtered water doesn't taste like anything.

Unfiltered water tastes like the minerals/contaminants/chemicals that have been added to it. Try drinking water treated with chlorine. You'll never want to drink that water ever again.

Taste isn't generated through the tongue, it is your sense of smell. Your point still stands, though: go up to a glass of water and sniff it. Smell anything? No? K, so water is tasteless.

The smell is important for taste, but the tongue tastes.

The tongue can sense certain properties (sweet, bitter, etc), but what we define as taste is actually our sense of smell.

Filter that shit.

Also, chilling limits the nasty chemical smell.

I'm the same way, though I make myself drink water because I know it's good for me. Sometimes I just have to gag it down. The way I started getting myself to drink water was by putting an 8oz thermos in my room. By the end of the day, I made sure the thermos was empty. Then expanded it to two thermoses, then three, then four. Drink only filtered, cold water.

I still don't like it, but I can put up with it. Only drank soda and chocolate milk until I was 18, though.

At my old house, I loved the water there. I used to drink 8-12 glasses a day.

Now, at this house, the water tastes disgusting. It tastes funky, as if of chemicals. I put that down to living right next to the sea, but who knows.

I put lemon juice (the stuff you put on pancakes) on it and it tastes great. Otherwise, I drink weak orange squash.

TL;DR: The water here makes me gag too.

A lot of water treatment plants end up problems of letting remnants of various things inside. At least that sort of thing happens in America. I'm somewhat surprised that there isn't more outrage over that sort of thing.
