Keeping It Awesome: Hackerspace Modifies Water Fountain
Look what MakerBot Operator Craig Berscheidt and others at Kansas City’s Hammerspace made: a water fountain that switches between regular cold water and Idiocracy-inspired Brawndo, The Thirst Mutilator!
Since Brawndo isn’t a real drink, “MIO energy drops were selected to provide Brawndo-esque flavor, but the flavor tank can hold whatever we choose.”
Apparently the first test subject chose to drink the flavored water over the regular water. Hmm, I wonder why…
That’s some really nice laser cutting/etching and vinyl work. Read about the whole project here.

Brawndo was totally real, back in 2007.
I still have a can of it in my fridge.

This made my day
It has electrolytes!! A friend and I actually bought some online a few years back. My tongue might still be tainted green…
