I haven't been able to use a water fountain since becoming aware of just how germ-ridden and gross those things tend to be.

I have been able to use a water fountain ever since I ignored germs and gross things. (Nothing adverse has happened)

Or fountain sodas or ice from dispensers. Same problem of mold buildup if they aren't maintained. At least it's much harder for people to put their mouths on those...(but not impossible).

I know that if I search the web I will find video proof of this being done routinely, so I won't.

I can taste it when a restaurant isn't cleaning their nozzles properly. It's fucking nasty.
