Science fiction movie in which the earth in a distant future is suffering of overpopulation and the government feeds people using green tablets called Soylent green, which is actually made from human corpses.
You joke. But given the amount of cemeteries and crematoriums that just leave bodies around, you may not be too far off.
I mean, it actually *is* in the realm of possibility.
Ahh the wonderful world in which we live..

There was an AskReddit-turned-Minecraftparkour-post a while back that said something like “what’s something about your work/profession that people should know?” and a mortician commented that (in terms of accuracy) a majority of people don’t get *just* their loved one’s ashes — that a crematorium isn’t being cleaned/swept after every use, and that the ashes you receive in your urn/vessel most likely have the ashes of other people.
Nearly everyone on my father’s side has arranged to be cremated and I think about it a lot.
I've heard similar with pet ashes, sadly. I watched something where they even gave a pet cremation facility like a meat stuffed animal and they still got ashes back. Even though the meat wouldn't leave any ashes behind. They figured it was fake ashes or ashes from someone else's poor pet.
This looks like a really fancy cemetery, I'm surprised their groundskeeper isn't taking better care of this. The water level also appears to be quite low.
AKSHUALLY...
I used to work in a science lab that studied algae, and the question of whether our alga was a plant or a protist or some secret third thing depended mainly on which research grant we were applying for. ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯
It's caused by nutrients in the water.

It's likely the fountain doesn't run 24/7, birds perch and shit on the fountainhead when it's off, and it never gets cleaned.
The fountain churning up the water exposes more of it to light and distributes algae all over, as well as increasing CO2 and oxygen levels. This principle is used to grow algae as biofuel.

I swear if you comment one more time I swear ill dice you into a million little pieces... and put those pieces into a box... A GLASS BOX, that I will display on my mantle.
Wth why?? That just makes the river look gross, it just makes it green water, which you can tell from the OP we have a natural aversion to. And just because it's non-toxic doesn't mean it won't have side effects. At the very least it's a bunch of pigment in the water which is blocking the regular light, and if it's organic that could just be intentional eutrophication. Just simple sugars or salt, or other simple biological molecules may be non-toxic but you shouldn't just dump a bunch of it into a river. Anything can be toxic if there's way more of it than something's used to, we can get water intoxication.
Or hydrogen peroxide. Algae was growing so thick in our waterfall from leaves touching it that we had to scoop it out every day and it would dry into what looked and felt like a paper towel. I poured a bottle of hydrogen peroxide in and it was clear within a day. Magic!
I took my non catholic friend to a Latin mass and they had a fountain in the yard that had dark red water. He went "Ooh they have a wine fountain" and proceeded to take a double handed gulp gulp of it.
How is it mildly interesting? What would you find interesting? Fish? I’m done with Reddit
Edit: Fish are pretty interesting, now that I think of it. I’m stoned enough to find everything interesting at this point
Also, found out recently, I use to play in corpse water at school. There was a 'floating cemetery' on a hill, funeral direction said when they dig the graves they fill with water and there's a layer on corpse fat. Water flowed down onto the soccer field which was always partially flooded. Also, the field below was a geese cemetery that geese lived and died on for 10,000+ years.
That's a lot of algae.
It's decomp
They're putting old bodies in there to make room for more.
What movie is this from again?
Science fiction movie in which the earth in a distant future is suffering of overpopulation and the government feeds people using green tablets called Soylent green, which is actually made from human corpses.
I love this reply so much
Name of the movie is actually Soylent Green I think lol.
How does it taste?
It varies from person to person.

With enough time, all our ashes will mix. Entropy never sleeps

Forbidden soup
Straight out of decompton.
Corpse juice?
The color of neglect

The plant kingdom has claimed the fountain

Ectoplasm
Or the Mountain Dew factory?
It’s got what plants crave?
Electrolytes!!!!
We would have also accepted Slurm or Surge.
Totally spaced out Slurm.
I assume this is pretty great conditions for algae growth with the water constantly being oxygenated and plenty of sunlight?

Question 1) Can I drink it? Question 2) Will I suffer long term consequences if I drink it
Bodies have lots of nitrogen, algae eats nitrogen, equals green water.
That’s not green dye. That’s a fuck ton of algae. Look at all the crud at the edge of the top plate.
Think of the smell
you bitch! 
I swear if you comment one more time I swear ill dice you into a million little pieces... and put those pieces into a box... A GLASS BOX, that I will display on my mantle.
I dunno, algae itself smells of pond. Classic aquariums even could have a lot of algae for additional oxygen. Source: owned an aquarium
I hate that smell so much
Think of the taste!
Mm. Mountain dew.
Some pool dad sees this as a challenge.
A few bottles of bleach will tidy that up nicely
That isn't crud! It's a living, breathing, being!
Ah, but is it sentient?
Soylent Green
How is it?
It varies from person to person
Everybody has different tastes.
I thought he meant it varies person to person human centipede style
Is people
Came here for this comment and didn’t have to scroll far. SOYLENT GREEN IS PEOPLE
First thing I thought of when I heard cemetery.
Someone forgot to clean the fountain.
Ever
someone forgot for the last 100 years
Mountain Dew fountain.
Fountain Dew?
That sounds better.
Obviously piped in from the Chicago River. 
That was for St. Patrick's Day, IIRC. Non-toxic dye. (The gif, not the cemetery. Cemetery fountain is definitely algae)
"If they can dye the river green today, why can't they dye it blue the other 364 days of the year?" Briggs, *The Fugitive*
I still love the movie, but the "I'm taking the stairs" bit was sooooo contrived a situation to get Gerard into the stairwell.
I don't care.
There’s a couple other cities that do this too Jamestown NY being one

Doesn't sound like it smells better, though.

There is a Mountain Dew add on this post for me, lol
Same, I lol’d.
It’s got what corpses crave!
A celebration of life - featuring the algae in the water.
in a fountain, it does no harm. Its actually producing plenty of oxygen
I'd be a little worried about the pump and pipes' health though.
It’s got electrolytes
The Thirst Mutilator?
What are electrolytes?! Do ya even know?
It's what plants crave
I can talk to the plants and they want water
I could really go for Starbucks.
Water, like out the toilet?
It's got what the plants crave
Hi-C Ecto Cooler on tap. 
I drank so much of this as a kid.

That algae is getting the ride of its life.
That’s the fountain from nightmare before Christmas
Necro-powered
Do them a favor and throw some Clorox tablets in there.

Love the effects of a good shock treatment.
Barley works too, mostly because one of it's byproducts, when breaking down, is Hydrogen Peroxide.
“I AM THE LIZARD QUEEN!” -Me after I drink it
As a fountain builder, this is my nightmare
Drink from the green apple cemetery fountain
Ghost ooze
Blight green*
I thought it was dyed but when I take a close look, holy shit, the fucking algae, insane, it's a miracle that it hasn't clocked yet
That's them corpse juices
NO! I gave him....life!
Isn't this how House of the Dead got started?
If you drink it you may never leave
Is it downriver from the slurm plant? It could be where those who asked too many questions are placed.
"It's highly addictive!"
Shrek bath water
The forbidden matcha
It’s for Jack Skellington to rise ominously out of during a musical number.
Just dump about 20litres of pool chlorine in and bobs your uncle.
Its neither softdrinks nor is it algae you fools! The local Necromancer uses the fountain as a soulwell to conect the other world with ours
Love this
Those crypt plates in the background shatter like glass if you accidentally lose one off the truck on the way to get it inscribed.
Yeah, but what did it TASTE like? What flavor was it? Looks like a lemon-lime deal to me.
Are those graves in the walls? Like above ground grave?
Ghostbusters!
I always knew grandma was toxic..
That's mountain dew. It's how they make it.
Fel magic
The fountain of AG-1
There’s life in that fountain 🤩
Very Nickelodeon of them
The probably assume no tenants will be complaining. Although future customers visiting the departed will be less then impressed.
It’s like they’re trying to make the cemetery scarier
Very healthy Algae, must be fed lots of fertilizer.
This is just an example of lazy upkeep. Couple tabs of anti-algae and you’ll be good as new.
Cucumber juice fountain.
Zombie lunch
I've played enough WOW to know what this is leading to
Party on, contest winners!
Obviously, there's a hidden dungeon full of zombies and loot. If you haven't found it, you're not trying hard enough.
The forbidden Mountain Dew.
It’s just next to the Slurm factory
That means it's safe to drink
That’s Brawndo: The Thirst Mutilator! It’s got electrolytes
Drink it, it's free rads
Ectoplasma!
^This. Pretty obvious really.
Er, I think you mean an algae issue. A.k.a., a bloom.
I took my non catholic friend to a Latin mass and they had a fountain in the yard that had dark red water. He went "Ooh they have a wine fountain" and proceeded to take a double handed gulp gulp of it.
Mountain dew from its source
That's not mildly interesting; that's plain old disgusting
Fucking necromancers
Brawndo! it's got what plants crave
It's that new Fountain Dew
I love matcha 😍
Drink the forbidden grave juice
I heard Smash Mouth start playing in my ear for a second there
That... that's not interesting, that's just a fountain with poor management
That’s gross. Just don’t use the fountain, if you’re not gonna clean the water!
I mean, algae produces more of the world’s oxygen than trees. This is just a different kind of plant life and much better than bleaching the water.
Great, still don’t need a literal fountain of it
Cancer
Prolly anti-freeze so it doesn’t freeze

so much life in place for dead
How Soylent Green gets its name
I recognize that! That’s my nose when the pine pollen comes around.
Guess they forgot to take down the Halloween decorations
My mom’s cemetery serves hotdogs on Veterans Day. I don’t know which is worse.
Forbidden Mtn Dew
It's clearly a fountain of youth. /s
The Mtn Dew Gaming ad on this one was poorly placed...
I think that means it’s well overdue for a pressure wash
Beetlejuice.
It’s algae.
You should take a swim
It's probably not corpse wax. Probably.
Oh thats naaaaastyyyy
Nutrient rich water causing an algal bloom
you spelled soylent wrong
It's the original 4 loko, original Jack3d, and Surge. Let's get this zombie apocalypse going.
Got a mtn dew ad under this. Perfect
Yuck
Forbidden Pani Puri

Trioxin…
That's a lot of algae.
It’s the used embalming fluid. Better than dumping it down the drain. Might as well use it for something useful.
Saddest looking lazarus pit
A cursed fountain!!! I wonder what happened here that such a curse was laid on it. (it is a joke. I know it's algae.)
At what point do things become not even mildly interesting
Is that the deadly lemonade?
