My (soon to be ex-) wife buys large quantities of bottled water... One of many things about her I found irksome over the years, I went to the trouble of putting in an RO filter under the sink... and she was always so vocal about recycling...

Meanwhile on my desktop I bounced around even more... Ubuntu until the stupid wannabe metro UI, then switched to mint, which I used exclusively (as in without dual-booting windows) for a while...
