Here are Dustin Hoffman and his wife Lisa walking out of a Beverly Hills office building last week. They’re carrying the ever present LA fashion accessory – the water bottle. It started us wondering – do people in other places – like the midwest – also walk around carrying water bottles?

    “Does anyone in the midwest carry water bottles?”…I’ll answer your question if you answer mine…”Do bottle job wannabe journalists on the west coast have intelligence?”…..

    Hey I’m in Canada and I carry that same brand of Fiji water everywhere I go. Water is your friend.

    I’m in Atlanta and have been carrying a water bottle with me for years. Everyone does. It’s healthy- good for your skin and staves off hunger!

    Also, the next time you drive thru your fast food joint, just order the burger and skip the fries and soda pop…. And drink your water instead.
    Course, I would have thought Dustin could have afforded a larger bottle or atleast one of those Camel Bak’s… But what looks more dorkier, carrying around a simple bottle or wearing one of those things around your waists’.

    Must be a slow day on reporting on celebrities, big deal water bottles are a smart idea. I recall when I use to live in AZ how we use to put water bottles in the back seat just incase we had car problems out in the middle of no where. Have you got a few liters in your back seats?

    Janet, are you really THAT stupid. What kind of line is, “do those in the midwest carry water bottles”, anyway? Just because someone’s carrying a water bottle doesn’t mean it’s not water. You’re obviously a drunk!!!!

    “who is soooo thirsty they have to carry around a bottle of water”
    In a place with a desert climate where, if you manage to find a drinking fountain, you don’t want to get your mouth near it, plenty of people carry around water bottles.

    Carry a water bottle around is an affectation. It’s so “look at me.” Unless you’re headed for Death Valley, lose the water bottle! It’s silly and pretentious.

    Much like the old sunglasses propped in the hair or cashmere sweater at 85 degrees look,,seems as though it is thought of as trendy.

    We still use wine skins up here Janet! You have to thaw the snow at Whistler before you can drink it anyway. One day Canada will have water in bottles too…i hope.
    And everyone”s shamelessly drunk as skunks up here you know.

  20. get real

    water bottles are totally normal, unless filled with alcohol, I guess.
