Granted. All water has lemon in it. Showers leave you sticky and the lemon juice sprays in your eyes. Lemon rain starts to disrupt ecosystems and eat away at buildings. Only lemon sharks remain in the sea. Collapse is imminent. The citrocene is upon us. But you're very quenched when it comes.

Granted. It wasn't specified, so the included lemon is always already squeezed into the drink, and either too little or too much.

Petty. I like it because it defeats the entire purpose of my wish for convenience.
