Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

My mostly Hispanic hometown's water was mixed with recycled poo water. It was heavily filtered and processed and was probably safe... But still.
It also had a chemical taste to it.
Edit: In the US
Purifying water is quite standard. Furthermore, almost all purified water is purified poo water.
I'm learning from the comments. I'm thinking poo water is recycled more often where there is water scarcity. My current town detoxifies the poo water and releases it back into a nearby river instead of reusing it as drinking water. It's not pure water, but some regulated blend that won't upset the river ecosystem. Lots of bacteria and other processes involved.
