Uh, do you have a restroom?

Just don’t stream in the stream…

You can damage your kidneys drinking too much water every day. My late mother ended up doing that with bottled water and she was on dialysis machines 3 times a week, 4 hours per session for her remaining few years.

Water way to go…………

I’ve sloshed from drinking too much water. Fortunately i was working in the hot sun and i sweated it out of my system.

The day before you have a colonoscopy, they make you drink a gallon on watered medicine, (approx. twelve hours before the examination).

He needs a buckle to go with that swash.

oh, now ya tell him.

Hyponatremia, here it comes. Don’t do it.

While it is possible to drink too much water, I don’t think I could manage it. I would probably pass out from exhaustion by making too many trips to the bathroom.

BTW: I think SLOSH is more onomatopoeiac than SWASH. At least it’s more fun to say.

His potassium and sodium levels are going to be dangerously skewed. He could also drown in his own organ tissue. Just a comic…I know.

A health site said a liter+ per day or 12-8oz glasses. An impractical requirement for the average person who is not exercising or doing physical labor of some kind every day.

Another site that sells tv’s said that average viewing distance of 3-5 feet was correct for 30-40" tv. Just be sure to have your optometrist on speed dial.

The world is full of ‘experts’ who seem to have no realistic connection to the human race.

Swash swash swash. Once again, this comic has great sound effects.

Well, he’s going to be up all night. Yip yip yip yip yip

You mean just …water. Plain old water? Why? I mean coffee, or even tea, I can get behind, but all that plain water is bound to lead to problems. I mean really. Think of the environment.

This is funny!

Plus you wash all the minerals and nutrients out…not a good idea!

Psychogenic polydipsia; the road to hyponatremia.

Gotta go now. In every sense of the word.

Taking advice out of context was prominent at that age.

The whole “drink 8 glasses of water a day” thing is bunk. It’s actually 8 CUPS of water a day, as in the unit of measurement.

And you don’t have to drink it all either. Water in food counts.

Pee = Deluge

Always listen to your doctor and your body.
