gollark: Really? Reusable water bottles aren't that common as far as I know.

gollark: But do they drink it FROM BOTTLES?

gollark: And the water bottle suggests that it's somewhere where people drink water.

gollark: Also, it implies they don't spend that much on equipment, because fancier schools waste money on big LCDs or bother to line up their projectors.
