That would eliminate the harmful bacteria but it would not remove toxins.

Oh, and they're stupid.

For the same reason that they have more kids when they can't afford to feed one

Do Americans really heat their water by putting a bowl on the stove?
>>
>>53523355

That was you guys.

I've only seen an electric kettle once in my entire life. Nobody uses them here.
>>
>>53523287
Americans put on more weight than they can carry.
>>
>>53523461
We actually put a plate on top of a bowl and then pop it in the microwave
>>
>>53523355

I use a stove top kettle on the rare occasions when I drink tea.

>not just running the water through a coffeemaker without coffee in it

When you make ice cubes, do you boil the water first and then put it into the freezer ?
>>
>>53523834
Well what my mother used to do was boil them in the ice cube tray, but I figured "Why would I boil the water if they're just going to melt anyway?", so I just put them straight into the freezer
>>
>>53523767

I have an induction stove top so the kettle is actually much faster.
>>
No kettles
Microwaving water.

This is absurd.
>>
>>53523930
haha, I think boiling the water in the ice tray is actually kinda clever
>>
Because then they'd have boiled pee and shit water.

Because they find it easier to get freebies of clean water and antibiotics from the UN and the like.
