Is it bad I kinda fuck with this idea?
I'm already contemplating how to do something similar.
It doesn’t need to be elevated. A Camelbak on the nightstand would do the trick.
Yes but why make it simple when it can be deliciously complicated and intricate?
Crazy straw and chocolate milk, you say?
Rum and coke keeps for longer but I'll take the crazy straw!
I tried it awhile ago, but it's too easy to accidentally spill water on the bed when you're trying to drink from it. Also the hydration reservoirs are tricky to keep clean.
Yeah yeah, but consider that where you have failed, I, a complete beginner in these matters with nothing but a wild idea and my trusty ADHD interest span, shall obviously succeed! And you'll all see!
I keep water in a thermoflask near the bed. Stays nice and cool all night. This bag would be an unpleasant room temperature very quickly.
Where my room temperature homies at?
in my experience room temperature water is magically cold anyways, fuck knows how that works but it reliably does.
Like it's not ice cold or anything, but recognizably cool
Unpleasant room temp?
We get it, you only drink carefully curated, ultra-filtered, temperature controlled Smart water, you priss
I have a relatively cheap filter on the kitchen sink cold water tap, and I use ice in a large thermos style water bottle, but I too prefer cold/chilled to room temp. I can drink room temp fine, but I like it cold more.
I gotta switch it up sometimes
I get it out of my fridge’s dispenser. Sometimes I put ice in there if it’s a hot evening. The flask cost me $10 which is cheaper than a Camelbak. Lasts me a few days between refills. Honestly a good life hack if you’re used to have a glass of water by your bedside.
Good
I've done this. Because I almost exclusively drank out of a camelpak for a while, so I had it on my night stand often. It was super easy and convenient to take a sip of water while laying down. I've wanted something like that again, but yeah, having that next to your bed isn't great lol
I fuck with the CamelBak too. My problem is I get the brilliant idea of throwing other liquids in there to try and sneak it into places. Then I forget to flush it and it's ruined. 😞
As long as it’s only the idea, not the girlfriend or the bag itself. I mean, yuckkkkk.
It's okay, this is lemmy. Nobody has a gf here.
I want it too
