Unscrewing the cap is a tenth of a second I don't think about. Pouring a glass of water in bed and trying not to spill it on the table and floor, then drinking that glass, then re-pouring more water and drinking more, all while worrying about spilling it all over my pathetic self in bed, sounds a lot less convenient. If I spill it on myself, I have to get out of bed. I'm not going to sit there in a pool of water. These are things that have happened to me that I'd like to avoid.

Since the $2 isn't much at all to me, that's all the more reason to treat myself to the bottle of water. I don't call that delusion, I call it not sweating the small stuff and living in the moment. Feel free to call it conspicuous consumption, but I'm not sure who you think I'm trying to impress with this story. I'm not sure such a person exists.

You're the one who thinks that my blowing a couple bucks for a nice moment in the morning is evidence of some kind of bane on society. Justify that, why don't you? I've given you my entire thought process.
