Too late

By UhOhhhh - 08/09/2009 17:29 - United States

Today, I woke up, took a shower, made some pasta, drank 3 glasses of water and brushed my teeth. I then left my apartment to see signs posted all over warning us not to use the water without boiling it because the water company just found E-coli in the water. FML

Well at least the pasta was safe to eat >.> unless you eat wet raw pasta. The building I live in slips notices under the door.

Um, ecoli? Nice try. An ecoli outbreak would require more than signs. In fact if this was true there would be national headlines about another ecoli outbreak. Noob.

I'm not sure if this is similar, I don't exactly watch the news, but in some MA cities, there was recently something wrong with the water. Connecticut isn't exactly far from those cities, so who knows? And people saying "pasta for breakfast" I've eaten pasta for breakfast before. It's good. :D

@ Jaque - it might not be ecoli, but there is something in the water in the MA/CT shoreline area and they are recommending that you do not eat or drink water from a tap without boiling it.

Even if there is something in the water, the pasta water would be boiled so I don't think that should be part of the FML. The drinking 3 glasses and tooth brushing belongs. The shower, I will accept. The pasta is just silly.

Pasta is good for breakfast, Start your day with off with good carbs, unlike doughnuts or sugary cereals.

i decided theres no way this FML happened. it comes from conn, if there was an ecoli outbreak especially in the water lines, we would all know about it. YDI for making up this FML

Not all E. coli outbreaks are national. Also, it's not an outbreak unless someone gets it. A boil water order is issued when a test shows that E. coli is present, not when someone gets sick.

Better question: who drinks 3 glasses of tap water in the morning?

Anyway, it is necessary to boil water before drinking. Like, always. It is safe and smart.

ikr pasta is good anytime of the day lol

in my school I went to they had an ecoli out break and they just said don't drink the water and that was it

like someone mentioned, never said it's morning, Someone works night shifts at just about every work place

You do realize you need to boil the water for pasta therefore OP wouldn't be able to get sick from the pasta

dude, that totally sucks. i hope you stay healthy. way to be observant.

this has nothing to do with being observant if the signs were posted OUTSIDE her unit

Oh wow. That's really unfortunate. :O I hope you're okay!

the posting time was in the afternoon so maybe she woke up at like 12 you never know

The time submitted and the time it shows up here is completely irrelevant, but you could be right. Also, pasta for breakfast isn't that uncommon. I mean, there is Ramen.

maybe they live off of oodles of noodles. op may be poor and can only afford pasta for breakfast... just sayin.

Cuz pastas amazing for breakfast. Obvious.

Doesn't know how to makes Eggs Benny from scratch?

OH MY!! WHATEVER WILL WE DO IF SOMEONE MADE THEIR LUNCH AHEAD OF TIME?!?! Dude, seriously, I have pasta all the time for lunch; therefore requiring it to be made ahead of time.

Not crazy for me. I've had pasta before. Just being experimental and changing the perception of the norm.
