Well, when the kid behind the counter said the price, which I think was over $5 with tax (a fucking tax on water?), I instinctively answered, “Five bucks? Are you fucking kidding me?” His response was perfect: “Yeah, we get that all the time. Do you want a cup of water instead? It’s free.”
Hell, yeah, I want some of…
I was wondering if the water was $3 a bottle—not truly insane and cheaper than it was the last time I went to the movie theater ($4.95!!!!?!?!?) or $100 per case. After all, the 36-bottle case would be $108 at that price.

We humans are just the best.
Fuck people who price gauged during crisis. Scum of the earth.
God you fucking communists. They’re only charging what the market will bear. And clearly if there’s a big enough demand by desperate, hungry, starving, and trapped people, supply is limited and prices will increase accordingly.
people are heartless
Let the market work itself out!
You know, the funny part of this note is that Floyd probably can’t read it anyways.
I’m glad I got all these stars, because I worded this awkwardly as fuck.
Glad to see his son choosing not to follow in his father’s footsteps by learning how to read and write.
