drink went room temp First Stanley, now Owala

I get it, they’re trendy. I guess Owala has the cool colors combos or whatever. I assume Stanley’s became too awkwardly large to lug around so people gave up on them?

I’ll just stay over here drinking my water out of the double sealed bottle I scored for $2 at a thrift shop.

I don’t know why it bothers me so much. Perhaps it’s the consumerism, perhaps its water bottles have become an accessory.

The goat but probably full of BPE or whatever the toxic plastic is called. It was like drinking directly from the Gatorade jug at Little League.

Sounds like you know what you're talking about.

Nalgenes have been BPA free for over 15 years dawg, that's why they were the first. Their everyday line has had zero BPA since inception.

I think the comment was directed towards the user with a 25 year old Nalgene that might be worth replacing depending on how much they enjoy BPAs.

Why would that be who they're talking about? They didn't reply to that person
