bought my first container of bottled water ever [Taiwan is preparing for an invasion]

and every time I go to the supermarket I plan to get another 10 litre container until I have a little supply for the start of World War 3 which is imminent. The idea is that when China knocks out all the electronic components that keep the water flowing I'll have enough water until I rig something up to catch rainwater. But the young couple next door worry me. They have a few kids and parents with kids will kill to ensure their brood survives so they'll probably see me and the missus as expendable and take our water by force! I'd share my water with them if they needed it to stay alive but I suspect they'll do us in. I hope they move before war breaks out.

At absolute best, water stores for a year in perfect conditions. In a plastic bottle, much much less and it will be contaminated with chemicals that do not boil out.

Where you always this ... uh... um.. retarded at the old voat?

I hope that's not true. I'll look in to it.

No alt. I apologise for ruining your day but life's like that - ups and downs.

Don't buy bottled water. Buy activated charcoal. You can easily build a filter that is capable of recycling your own urine if you get desperate.
