Water is the world’s most precious resource. It’s all around us, and our entire planet relies on water for the basic functions of life. We’re surrounded by it – it’s only natural that, eventually, comedians take potshots at H2O in all its forms.
At Pentair Water Solutions we take water cleanliness and the environment very seriously, but not everything is strictly business. We love a great joke as much as the next guy, so we’ve taken some time to collect the funniest water-related quotes on the web. Read on for our personal favorite water jokes and quotes, from famous stand-up comics to classic comic strip characters.
