The Groupon Guide to: Water-Cooler Moments

There's no better place to talk at the office than around the water cooler. Here are some of the most commonly overheard water-cooler conversation starters:

I poured way too much. There is no way I'm gonna finish this.
I'm always over here. I must be, like, the thirstiest guy in this office.
I don't really feel like it's making the water cooler, like, where's the refrigerator part?
It'd be cool to use this as a big fish tank, but you'd have to poke a hole in it to get the fish in and then the water would spill out.
Why are there two nozzles? Let's just be safe and agree not to touch the red one. Red means stop.
The cups at my house are way bigger, and let me tell you something—they ain't made of paper!
It's weird that I can drink this stuff but I still don't know how to swim.
I used to bring my own water to work, but then I found this, and now I'm on easy street.
I bet this carpet gets mad wet all the time.
If there were soap here I'd be half tempted to wash my hands.
I helped the guy bring the bottles in once. You know, just to give something back.
If 75% of the human body is water, consider me 75% human.
Some people get mad because they put chemicals in water. Last time I checked, chemicals were red and green and came in little tubes.
I started drinking this stuff so I could get my medicine down. And I never stopped.
Good thing no one who sits over here is allergic to water.
What do you think is better—this or the coffee machine? Without water there wouldn't even be a coffee machine, so I guess we know who wins that war.
If there were fire here, I would just tip this thing over. Voilà, no more fire. Guess it's not that hard to be a fireman.
Scientists call it H2O, but I call it H2O-Yeah. I thought of that last week and I've been telling everybody. People seem to like it.
It's gonna get crazy the day we use this thing to make water balloons.
I'm thinking about bringing my lunch over here and using the top of the water bottle as a table.
This stuff is NOT for plants.
Imagine if they had these on the streets instead of fire hydrants. That's one of my ideas to improve the city.
Sometimes it looks like it's empty but water still comes out. I don't know what that's about. I know it's not magic, because magic isn't supposed to be real, but....
There's something very satisfying about putting a new bottle on top of this thing. It's, like, one thing you can control, you know?
It is impossible to talk and swallow at the same time. I've tried it. I coughed water on the copier.
Please be seltzer. Please be seltzer. Just kidding. I know it's not.
One time I drew eyes on the bottle and pretended it was my friend who was throwing up. I named it "Walter" ’cause that's the closest to water.
