I did this morning for the first time in years! Couple of things I noticed:

1. The water was very cold
2. I had to bend over a lot.

    If you didn't put your mouth on the nozzle you didn't do it right.

    Maybe twice in my lifetime... when I was about 40 years younger.

    These were in all the parks in Baltimore when I was growing up. Had to wait forever for the water to gurgle up but it was cold and refreshing.

    I haven’t seen one in years. I prefer the ones that look more like cute little toilets

    I don't know. Maybe a year or two?
    I don't have a problem using a drinking fountain just didn't have the need.

    Are you still alive? Did you break out in a weird rash?

    My gym has one with mossy green flecks around the spout. Gives the water a nice kick. 👌

    Um...yesterday at the soccer stadium? Filled some bottles from it, at least, being careful not to actually touch anything.
