Idk why I keep making memes about my childhood. Maybe I’m feeling nostalgic.

    Was anyone elses garden hose hooked up to a lake instead of the normal water?

    Mine was, there was no treatment plant for it, only a simple filter to filter out the larger stuff.

    I remember ruining soo many water guns by using the garden hose to refill them, there would allways be some debris stuck in the muzzle after a few days.

    Didn’t stop me from drinking it though!

      Ours was attached to a deep well, no filter at all. We drank that stuff all the time, the water was always nice and cold

        There is a bit of a difference between a normal small lake and a well…

        BTW if you are going hiking in the north or inland of Sweden, you don’t need a lot of water, there are so many clean springs in the ground that you will allways have drinking water.

    Man, what is wrong with you cats. Hose water was nasty af, and I’m tired of pretending it wasn’t. The water tasted like it had been marinating in a barrel of condoms for 6 months. Plus, you had to turn it on, and wait for the scalding hot water to run out first. I usually just unscrewed the hose and drank straight from the tap.
