water is life

there is this couple who lives a floor above us which would hopefully be my floor in near future. :D so today's post is dedicated to this female who loves water so much that she don't realise that she needs and uses 80% of the water that the overhead tank worth 500 liters holds till brim in the morning. And 80% is a figure which is not an approximation. It is calculated factual amount. and this is over and above the water than she uses over and above the municipal supply.

she considers water so holy that she thinks that it would cleanse everything of its impurity [we sometimes are scared that she might even manage to cleanse it of its purity in the process]. sometimes it seems like she is making sure that water should get extinct from the face of the earth. let me give you some real-time examples where she has find usage for water:-

1. she washes her curtains once in a week
2. she washes her floor mat when someone sits on it
3. she washes her newly washed clothes if someone touch them while they're drying
4. she throws away all the water if it is a night old, she don't even use it to clean the floor
5. she cleans the floor everyday with fresh water
6. she changes and wash her clothes everytime she goes to the loo
7. she even washes her and her husband's leather shoes
8. i heard that she once washed even the TV remote control

these are just a few... mom has tried to talk to her about the water wastage but she simply don't seem to understand and realise that she is actually wasting water and doing nature, society, everyone and herself some harm

  • Its a disease seriously,she is suffering from this thing whereby people get extra paranoid about dirt etc ,she really needs to go to a psychiatrist and take medication,unless u don't want to die of a sevre drought ,one of my neighbours used to wash her hands every 2 minutes..and wash the entire house after the maid cleaned it just because the maid walked past it.

  • **she even washes her and her husband's leather shoes

    WTF!


    **i heard that she once washed even the TV remote control

    now that has to be a lie...or was she embryonically challenged..then I can u'stand that...


    do one thing...go to her door and yell at her saying this...

    'one more event of wasting water, and I will set ur house on fire on a fire-brigade holiday...and I can be a suicide water terrorist'

    Keshi.
