And you can only flush once a day, no matter what


SF considering ways to curb plastic water bottles San Francisco, the city that regulated Happy Meal toys and banned plastic grocery bags, has a new target in its health-conscious, eco-friendly crosshairs: plastic water bottles.
City officials are considering an ordinance that would require owners of new and renovated buildings with water fountains to install special bottle-filling taps. The law’s designed to encourage thirsty people to refill containers instead of reaching for another bottle of Evian or Aquafina.
“This is the appropriate next step to make it easier for San Franciscans to get out of the bad habit of using environmentally wasteful plastic water bottles and into the good habit of using reusable water containers,” said MINISTER OF CORRECT THINK President David Chiu, who introduced the legislation in June.

Wait a minute, you can't just keep refilling plastic water bottles without a buildup of dangerous bacteria, which will lead to a scourge of explosive diarrhea across the San Francisco cityscape...

Uh, on second thought, CARRY ON!
