Drinking from the garden hose

For whatever reason drinking from the garden hose has become synonymous with generation X. Not really sure why it seems to be such a big deal to the younger people out there. Yes I did it, I still do it, my wife and kids do it.............although to be honest we're all more likely to drink out of the river because it's colder. Do younger generations think the hose water is somehow different than the water from the kitchen sink? 🙄
