DC Water Boil Advisory FOR ALL OF DC

A couple hours ago I went down to the vending machine in my condo building's basement to get a couple bottles (one for every two people) to last us overnight. I was already boiling a pot but figured it would take a while to cool and wanted to be safe. I figured, I'll just get a couple to last until this cools and by morning we'll have a big pot of cool water. Surely my neighbors will also practice restraint!

No. Some fat b took her GROCERY CART down and was loading it up with bottled water until I came down and she got embarrassed.

People. This lasts two days at most. Unless you don't have access to a pot and a stove, you can boil a big pot like the rest of us!

Well, were you able to get any? You don’t already have a few bottles ready? I’ll admit, we don’t usually water, but after the last bowl water advisory in our neighborhood, I’m a little particular about having some on hand at all times.

I was able to get two bottles, thankfully, but watching this woman load up her grocery cart with bottles pissed me off! Be a good neighbor!

I didn't have any on hand. You are right, I should. I was also under the boil advisory for upper NW in January and it was a pain in the ass.
