Swamp water? Like my pool? A pool completely overrun with green algae.

Maybe you'd want to clean that in the near future.

Nah, leave it that way.

The bacteria is great for the skin.

Swamp water, or Carbonated brown colored flavored sugar Mormon water?

"any flavour you like, as long as it's swamp water!"

When I was a kid growing up in small town Canada, "swamp water" was all the fountain drinks mixed into one cup. Thought it was delicious when I was 10!

It was referred to as a "suicide" in my neck of the woods.

When I was a kid, I'd automatically like drinks better if they were a mix of two other liquids

Samesies for big city western Canada

Things have really changed when this went from being called a "suicide" to "swamp water."

If there's no threat of death, what even is the point?

Ew! I'll take a crab water.
