How do people go so long without drinking water?

I am frequently in 1-2hr meetings (in person and video calls) where no one but me takes a drink for the duration of the meeting. Today I was in a 2 hr video meeting with 5 other people and I specifically paid attention (it was boring anyway) and literally no one took a single sip. Meanwhile I took down at least 16-20 oz of water in that span, appearing like some sort of unrestrained wild animal who has just emerged from the desert and is unable to resist gorging itself at a trough of fluids.

Like I get it if you're doing an activity or exercising, because when I run for up to an hour I don't usually bring water. But if I'm just sitting there listening to someone talk, I'm drinking water 💦

Everyone pls stop telling me I might have diabetes, I literally don't
