Slog - Comments on Drunk (First in a Series) http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/07/drunk_first_in_a_series Water Fountain outside gym on 2nd floor of Seattle Central Community College Temperature: Colder than expected. But not cold enough. Score: 3 Stream: Medium, but leaning toward meek and low (had to press mouth against spout). Score: 3 Hum: Loud, strong rattle. Unfortunately, it's deceptive: The boisterous encouragement turns out to be unrelated to the stream. Score: 5 Style: Mini-sink jutting from wall, steel basin, beige plastic front. Press-bar on front of fountain with hand print imprint. Generally, I like the hand print effect, but it only works if there's some tension and spring in the press function. None...

Frankly, I think it's the best damn post of the day.

Don't stop until you've rated every drinking fountain in Seattle.

Also, let it be noted that those with sensitive teeth are pathetic whiners. There is no such thing as a too cold water fountain. As long as the water hasn't frozen in the pipes, the colder, the better.
