It's so easy for you to accidentally waste a bucket's worth of water by preparing a meal which is slightly too big that I simply cannot fathom in what context it is worth complaining about.

Food is food. Food is useful, as I am sure many of you will agree. Food feeds you. Food is not what you post on social media to get a lot of attention (well, some people do, but those are very interesting people). Dousing yourself with a bucket full of ice cold water is used to get attention, not to feed yourself. Water is something that should be used not as a way to get attention in a silly scheme, but to cure your thirst. Not once have I ever said that we shouldn't try and save water other ways. But those other ways have become the way of life, a necessity. Water to bathe yourself. Water to brush your teeth. Should water be a way of attention too? Because attention really shouldn't be a way of life. Use water usefully, at least usefully in the context of the modern day society.

Plus, if you are desperate to partake in the challenge, wait till the winter and dump an all natural bucket of water over your head. Or snow.
