OH! It’s for water, that’s a relief.
I legit thought it was some weird urinal thing.
First thought was a medical thing.
Why not both!?
I’m at the point in my life where a urinal next to my bed would be a huge QoL improvement, but I don’t think my wife would go for it.
I think you missed the part where I implied that you would be drinking your own urine.
I thought it was for poo at first glance lol
Is it bad I kinda fuck with this idea?
I fuck with the CamelBak too. My problem is I get the brilliant idea of throwing other liquids in there to try and sneak it into places. Then I forget to flush it and it’s ruined. 😞
I keep water in a thermoflask near the bed. Stays nice and cool all night. This bag would be an unpleasant room temperature very quickly.

Where my room temperature homies at?
in my experience room temperature water is magically cold anyways, fuck knows how that works but it reliably does.
Like it’s not ice cold or anything, but recognizably cool
Unpleasant room temp?
We get it, you only drink carefully curated, ultra-filtered, temperature controlled Smart water, you priss
I get it out of my fridge’s dispenser. Sometimes I put ice in there if it’s a hot evening. The flask cost me $10 which is cheaper than a Camelbak. Lasts me a few days between refills. Honestly a good life hack if you’re used to have a glass of water by your bedside.
I have a relatively cheap filter on the kitchen sink cold water tap, and I use ice in a large thermos style water bottle, but I too prefer cold/chilled to room temp. I can drink room temp fine, but I like it cold more.
I gotta switch it up sometimes
As long as it’s only the idea, not the girlfriend or the bag itself. I mean, yuckkkkk.
It’s okay, this is lemmy. Nobody has a gf here.
I’ve done this. Because I almost exclusively drank out of a camelpak for a while, so I had it on my night stand often. It was super easy and convenient to take a sip of water while laying down. I’ve wanted something like that again, but yeah, having that next to your bed isn’t great lol
I’m already contemplating how to do something similar.
It doesn’t need to be elevated. A Camelbak on the nightstand would do the trick.
Yes but why make it simple when it can be deliciously complicated and intricate?
Crazy straw and chocolate milk, you say?
Rum and coke keeps for longer but I’ll take the crazy straw!
I tried it awhile ago, but it’s too easy to accidentally spill water on the bed when you’re trying to drink from it. Also the hydration reservoirs are tricky to keep clean.
Yeah yeah, but consider that where you have failed, I, a complete beginner in these matters with nothing but a wild idea and my trusty ADHD interest span, shall obviously succeed! And you’ll all see!
I want it too
Guaranteed there’s a poop stick in the shitter.
A poop knife would be more efficient
Scissors are the easiest
Best to go with a whole complement: tongs, angle grinder, multimeter, mass spectrometry machine. But only the essentials
I like to go old school with my turd trident.
Write “LUBE” on it for a better vibe of the room.
Imagine being enough of a weirdo to make a hydration bag on the wall, and also charismatic enough to get a girlfriend. I think this person deserves the highest honors.
Often, I would think the girlfriend would come first, then the hydrobag.
I have a fiancé myself, and a son, and I’d by lying if I said I didn’t want a hydro bag after seeing this post.
All I can sense from the photo is the gross taste of whatever leeched from the flexible plastic into the water.
you’re right the hydro bag should have a metal pipe instead just like the ones for hamsters
Bf has one of those (saves weight on hikes). Water from it indeed tastes quite plasticky. Also, the flow rate is kinda low.
Wouldn’t a simple glass be easier to clean? Put a bendy straw in too if you don’t want to sit up.
The spill risk is too much man
Sippy cup
If you’ve already procreated, you have less to lose.

All I can think of is mold, mold, mold.
Make a nice little curtain. Maybe make a few in different colors so you can match whatever sheets you throw on
Simple, elegant, and can be adjusted to match the decor, I like it.
An alternative might be to put the bag under the bed with a brick or similar resting on it to provide presure.
Its not that hard to suck it up that distance like a straw. I use a hydration sack while camping and sometimes I’ll roll onto my bite valve and soak my tent. Under the bed but without the brick would mean minial spillage if the bite valve gets pinched.
I think it’s a good idea. People wear backpacks like that when they go hiking or running, so keeping one by your bed seems okay. But yeah you’d have to clean it out somewhat regularly. Or just have a glass of water somewhere near your bed like a lot of people do.
those normally come in a backpack of sorts. he could just put it back in the bag it likely came in. then it just looks like a bookbag with a tube coming out.
Hide it behind an inflatable doll?
Brilliant! And then the gf will never see it!
(because she’s the doll)
Big brain move: disguise the water bottle inside the doll.
Switch to a water bed, attach the tube to the water bed. Waterbed and some rugs will increase the vibe of your room. Women love water beds.
Trouble is, when you’re having fun with the girlfriend it’ll sploosh water into your mouth at a rhythmic rate you won’t be able to drink.
Drowning by snu-snu.
Bed in a corner with no headboard. This room has no aesthetic to ruin.
Homie is right that this is the height of late-night convenience. Especially since that bed is cornered and the nightstand (if there is one) might be tough to reach with a whole person in the way.
GF is right too. This is sending “hamster cage” vibes. May as well decorate with cedar wood-chips at this point.

Not the earthy tones she was hoping for
This is actually pretty neat if you are a particularly thirsty person.
A second tube for waste and all you need worry about is bedsores.
At that point get a hospital bed
I mean nothing screams “bachelor pad” more than a mattress on the floor in the corner. Pretty sure this fits the vibe exactly.
I’m pretty sure that the mattress isn’t on the floor. Otherwise the Light Switch would be pretty low
I thought so at first as well but that looks like a European electrical outlet.
I’m pretty sure it’s a light switch, looks like one you would usually find in France or Italy
He put it there so he can more easily find his water bag

Add more non-earthy looking object all around to give a eclectic look to the room
