Water .......rant

Why is it that everyone tries to give you water for every damn symptom you get?

Braxton hicks - drink water to stop them

Sonogram - drink water to make the baby more active

Crying - drink water to calm you down

coughing - drink water to ease the coughing

WTH! I am sick of people trying to shove a freaking glass of water at me. It doesn't help with anything outside of making me pee more

    My favorite is on health & fitness/food boards when someone says they are hungry and someone suggests drinking water. 

    Yeah, water doesn't cut it when you are actually hungry. If you are mistaking thirst with hunger that's one thing, but please. I drink a gallon of water a day. If I'm hungry, I need some FOOD.

    It's the army's cure for everything too.  I can't tell you how many times I've heard the command "DRINK WATER" in my life.  And at this point, if I don't have a water bottle or glass of ice water around, I feel kind of lost.  So I guess I can't really commiserate with your rant...although I do commiserate with the peeing more aspect of it.
