In my book, running out of water combined with dying of dehydration is one of the top 2 bad things to happen to someone. The other? Drowning. Luckily, Tom Selleck is only acting like he ran out of water here. He's fucking Tom Selleck, for Christ's sake. He most likely has reserves stored in his stellar mustache.

TOP 5 MOVIES FEATURING WATER

As a loyal follower of this site, you know that we love water. What you may not know is that we love movies. Water + Movies = HOLY SHIT I HAVE AN IDEA FOR AN ARTICLE THAT I CAN SOMEHOW SHOEHORN WATER INTO


5.) The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou

Okay, I'm going to be honest, I've never actually seen this movie. However, I do know people who know good shit, and those people tell me this is good shit.  Little Know Fact: This movie is actually Ghostbusters 3, as Peter Venkman has quit the 'Busters to sail the world under a fake name because he's become disillusioned with life as a celebrity after walking the motherfucking Statue of Liberty through New York. Now he's on the run from bill collecters and Dan Akroyd, who won't stop calling him about being in Ghostbusters 3.



4.) Titanic

Water And Shrinkage

Ever wonder why men's testicles shrink in the swimming pool, ocean etc.? I'm sure you do otherwise you wouldn't have clicked this link.

Well the reason our ball sacks shrink is because our body needs to maintain a certain temperature. This is the body's natural response. When you get out of the water and your balls/needle dick are shriveled up don't worry, because it happens to the best of us. It's that darn water striking again. It gets our nipples hard too. The reasoning is related to our body temperature, and it helps reduce the surface area of the cold water hitting you. Hence why when you watched Baywatch the female lifeguards were always beaming. David Hasslehoff's nips would beam too, but for the excitement and rush of saving a drowning victim. 

Water works wonders sometimes.

Did You Know?

Did you know that there are 345 million people without water access in Africa? That sucks. But do you know what doesn't suck about Africa? Lions. But do you know what sucks about lions? They have barbed penises. Spiked fucking dicks. So if you're ever stuck in the precarious position of being eaten alive by a pride of lions, set yourself at ease and tell yourself that it could always be worse.

Sometimes when I think about suicide (not mine, just suicide in general) I think the best way to go out would be to try to fight a lion. Now you probably don't stand a chance, but what happens if you win? All of a sudden you don't feel so worthless anymore, right? You might get mauled a bit, sure, but I'd gladly go through the rest of my life without the use of my legs if I was know as the guy who murdered the King Of the Jungle with my bare fucking hands.

How great would that be? I'd probably get to be a guest on Letterman and tell my story, and then Letterman would say something like "You've got quite a set of balls, kid" and then he'd say, "Paul what do you think of this guy?" and Paul Shaffer would say, "HUGE balls!". Then I'd show them my custom made walking cane with a bejeweled lion dick on the handle.

Water malady: Aquagenic urticaria

Aquagenic urticaria, also known as 'water allergy' or 'water urticaria' is rarely diagnosed. The defining symptom is a painful skin reaction resulting from contact with water. This may also be the effect of different temperatures of water, such as cold or hot, and can flare with chemicals such as fluorine and chlorine.

Aquagenic urticaria usually causes the skin to itch and burn after being exposed to water of any kind. The skin may develop hives. Showers may result in severely dry eyes and soreness. Higher water temperatures tend to expedite the formation of hives. Shortness of breath or swelling in the throat can occur when drinking water. The pain usually persists for between 10–120 minutes.

Contact with any form of water can cause symptoms to appear. One's own or someone else’s sweat can cause a reaction, so most affected people try to stay cool in summer to avoid sweating as much as possible. Tears on one's face from crying can also cause pain, causing them to cry even more and throwing them into an everlasting cycle of crying. Most people with aquagenic urticaria try to stay out of the rain and carry umbrellas as a precautionary measure. Cleansing the body often induces such an intense reaction that affected people may take very short showers to lessen the severity of the pain.

Did You Know?

Did you know that an adult human body is made up of 60% water? Or how about the fact that I am having some serious second thoughts about starting a blog about goddamned water? I mean yeah, we can drink it, bathe in it, and wash our cars in the stuff, but c'mon, how could we possibly keep this up?

Well just like Kennedy when he looked up at the moon and famously said, "Fuck it, lets go there" we're going to march on and make this shit work. I promise YOU, the very confused person who stumbled on this site wondering what the fuck we're going on about, that we WILL make this water blog work.

A sad day for water..

TOKYO (Reuters) - Highly radioactive water seeping into the ocean from Japan's crippled Fukushima nuclear plant is creating an "emergency" that the operator is struggling to contain, an official from the country's nuclear watchdog said on Monday.

This contaminated groundwater has breached an underground barrier, is rising toward the surface and is exceeding legal limits of radioactive discharge, Shinji Kinjo, head of a Nuclear Regulatory Authority (NRA) task force, told Reuters.

Countermeasures planned by Tokyo Electric Power Co are only a temporary solution, he said.

Tepco's "sense of crisis is weak," Kinjo said. "This is why you can't just leave it up to Tepco alone" to grapple with the ongoing disaster.

"Right now, we have an emergency," he said.

Tepco has been widely castigated for its failure to prepare for the massive 2011 tsunami and earthquake that devastated its Fukushima plant and lambasted for its inept response to the reactor meltdowns. It has also been accused of covering up shortcomings.

It was not immediately clear how much of a threat the contaminated groundwater could pose. In the early weeks of the disaster, the Japanese government allowed Tepco to dump tens of thousands of metric tons of contaminated water into the Pacific in an emergency move.

The toxic water release was however heavily criticized by neighboring countries as well as local fishermen and the utility has since promised it would not dump irradiated water without the consent of local townships.

"Until we know the exact density and volume of the water that's flowing out, I honestly can't speculate on the impact on the sea," said Mitsuo Uematsu from the Center for International Collaboration, Atmosphere and Ocean Research Institute at the University of Tokyo.

"We also should check what the levels are like in the sea water. If it's only inside the port and it's not flowing out into the sea, it may not spread as widely as some fear."

NO OTHER OUTLET FOR WATER

Tepco said it is taking various measures to prevent contaminated water from leaking into the bay near the plant. In an e-mailed statement to Reuters, a company spokesman said Tepco deeply apologized to residents in Fukushima prefecture, the surrounding region and the larger public for causing inconveniences, worries and trouble.

The utility pumps out some 400 metric tons a day of groundwater flowing from the hills above the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant into the basements of the destroyed buildings, which mixes with highly irradiated water that is used to cool the reactors in a stable state below 100 degrees Celsius.

Tepco is trying to prevent groundwater from reaching the plant by building a "bypass" but recent spikes of radioactive elements in sea water has prompted the utility to reverse months of denials and finally admit that tainted water is reaching the sea.

In a bid to prevent more leaks into the bay of the Pacific Ocean, plant workers created the underground barrier by injecting chemicals to harden the ground along the shoreline of the No. 1 reactor building. But that barrier is only effective in solidifying the ground at least 1.8 meters below the surface.

By breaching the barrier, the water can seep through the shallow areas of earth into the nearby sea. More seriously, it is rising toward the surface - a break of which would accelerate the outflow.

"If you build a wall, of course the water is going to accumulate there. And there is no other way for the water to go but up or sideways and eventually lead to the ocean," said Masashi Goto, a retired Toshiba Corp nuclear engineer who worked on several Tepco plants. "So now, the question is how long do we have?"

Contaminated water could rise to the ground's surface within three weeks, the Asahi Shimbun said on Saturday. Kinjo said the three-week timeline was not based on NRA's calculations but acknowledged that if the water reaches the surface, "it would flow extremely fast."

A Tepco official said on Monday the company plans to start pumping out a further 100 metric tons of groundwater a day around the end of the week.

The regulatory task force overseeing accident measures of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power station, which met Friday, "concluded that new measures are needed to stop the water from flowing into the sea that way," Kinjo said.

Tepco said on Friday that a cumulative 20 trillion to 40 trillion becquerels of radioactive tritium had probably leaked into the sea since the disaster. The company said this was within legal limits.

Tritium is far less harmful than cesium and strontium, which have also been released from the plant. Tepco is scheduled to test strontium levels next.

The admission on the long-term tritium leaks, as well as renewed criticism from the regulator, show the precarious state of the $11 billion cleanup and Tepco's challenge to fix a fundamental problem: How to prevent water, tainted with radioactive elements like cesium, from flowing into the ocean.

Dehydration

During the summer it is a nice time to go outside for a run, play basketball, baseball, tennis or some type of physical activity. The most important part of running or exercising in the hot weather is to take in enough water so you don’t become dehydrated. Dehydration occurs when the body loses more fluid than what is taken in.

Our bodies are made up of over 75% water, it is the most important nutrient.  When we sweat in the beastly hot weather we lose fluid through sweating, and when we exercise in the heat we lose even more fluid, and it has a great effect on our aerobic endurance. It is important to always to have a drink handy (water or sports drink) in the hot weather, especially when exercising in the heat. Before your exercise makes sure you hydrate yourself and take in enough water. The daily recommended amount of water is 8-10 glasses, since I exercise regularly I take in a little extra due to the amount I lose during exercise as a result of sweating.

Some of the common signs of dehydration are dizziness, weakness increases, loss of energy, increased thirst. If at any point during your exercise in the hot weather you should discontinue and make sure you stop and rehydrate yourself. Dehydration may even lead to a heat stroke which can be life threatening. This is common among football players during summer camp due to the amount of fluid they lose during practice.

When our bodies sweat as a result of exercise we lose electrolytes (Sodium, Potassium, Chloride, Magnesium, and Calcium). The electrolytes provide an electrical charge for our bodies that help us rehydrate. Sports drinks (Gatorade, Powerade, Vitamin Water etc.) are the perfect way to replenish our thirst and also to restore these essential minerals.

Sports drinks should not be confused with energy drinks. In fact energy drinks contain caffeine, guarna and other herbal supplements which can have negative effects on the body including dehydration. The Caffeine consumed is a diuretic so it actually causes your body to clear out more water than the amount that is taken in. Another important diuretic worth mentioning to avoid in the hot weather is alcohol.

As the summer’s heat wave continues be sure to keep yourself safe and hydrated, and make sure you consume enough water daily to prevent dehydration.

Water by Bruce Lee

"Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.” - Bruce Lee

I Love Water, by Diquerious Mandelbaumb

Hey, new jack. Getting into lifting, huh? Whatcha got there? Some protein? Nice. That's great. What about that jug you're hiding behind your back? Creatine? Sure, can't hurt. And of course you got a good stretch in, right? Gotta ease those muscles into the ol' workout. That's great, bud, looks like you're all ready to get started. But it seems to me you're missing one important ingredient to a great workout. No, I'm not talking about your self-made Very Best of Godsmack CD (although that obviously doesn't hurt. I once flipped a Volkswagon carrying a family of four solely powered on their smash single Keep Away). I'm talking about good old fashion WATER, baby. H2O.

You don't feed your plants Miracle Gro and don't water 'em, right? No, of course you don't, because you're not a fucking idiot. Or maybe you are a fucking idiot who can't understand why all your plants are dying. Can't really say, I've never met you, but what I CAN say is this: without water you'd fucking die, just like that fern growing behind your momma's couch. Yeah, that's right. DIE. Shit just got real didn't it? Well relax and keep listening, and you'll never have to worry about dying again.

You ever shoot someone in the stomach see those movies where someone gets shot in the stomach and they're slowly bleeding out? What did that sonofabitch do they always ask for? What is it that his their dying carcass craved craves? If you said a protein-rich steak dinner then I'd like to make a personal visit to your home to put my size 13 (yeah, that's right, 13) square up your ass. But I don't have to do that, do I? Because you know damn well that the answer to that question is WATER.

What's that? You don't watch movies? And you hate water? You'd rather drink Gatorade?? Listen, buster, I don't wish ill will on anyone, but right about now I hope you get hit by a train and die. Your body doesn't want some sugar laced pisswater that comes in neon colors. That's that rotting turd inside your thick skull playing tricks on you. Listen to your body. It wants agua. H2O. WATER, BABY.

Man, I love water so much I'm writing this entire post from inside the shower. My dick gets hard when I'm within 20 feet of a swimming pool. I spent 3 years in federal prison for trying to blow up an umbrella factory, and to be completely honest with you, I ain't afraid of going back.

I know, I know, sometimes I take things too far. But if you saw what water made out of my body you'd fucking puke in your hat, bro. I'm like that famous Renaissance sculpture of David, if he was twice as jacked and had a big dick. And yeah, loving water so much doesn't come without some side effects, but if you're not comfortable enough in your own skin to be able to piss yourself inside of a Walgreen's and walk out with your head held high then I'm not sure how much I can really help you in the first place.

That's all the time I've got for today. Please just drink some goddamn water, will ya?

Without water

Water does not bend or break;

Without out water, my life I would hate;

Water rains, water snows;

Water cleans in between those toes;

Without water, my life I would hate.
