They finally got lucas out of the pool. The big swim 1998-2023

I will definitely use this in my group chat that includes a Lucas, just have to figure out how

but now I'm wondering what the context of this actually is! is there a contaminant called Lucas? is it water processed by a company called Lucas Free? or is it water from the crystalline springs of Lucas Free? why does it have an English name if it's made in Argentina?

edit: figured it out, it's some kind of automotive battery, and in Spanish "Lucas" means "discard in", "Free" means "ocean", and oddly enough "Water" means "water", so it's a label telling you to throw it in the ocean once you're done with it

My shirt saying "I drink water without any Lucas in it" has a lot of people asking questions

Lucas is the brand in this case. This is a type of battery that doesn't require water to be added periodically for its operation. Please do not chuck this battery in the ocean as a bit

I hate it when my water has Lucas in it.
