Don’t you just hate it when your phone charger is too short to reach from the wall to your bed? Or when your car seat makes your bum cold in the winter? Or when you ask for no pickles on your cheeseburger -- twice -- but you get ‘em anyway?! It’s easy to get caught up in our minor daily setbacks, but this new video from WATERisLIFE is a moving reminder of just how good we have it.

Water is something a lot of us take for granted. It’s hard to imagine, but almost 800 million people don’t have access to clean water, and charity: water wants to bring those numbers down.

Pitbull gets paired up with a lot of people. Pitbull and Jennifer Lopez, Pitbull and Enrique Iglesias, Pitbull and Bill Gates... wait, what? But it’s true: the rapper and the bazillionaire are both fighting for worldwide sanitation!

Lots of special days around the corner, we hear. For one, today is World Water Day! Also, after delaying its release, Adam Lambert is putting the final touches on his sophomore album, "Trespassing," and nearing a release date -- Glamberts rejoice! Plenty of you have special days around the corner, too -- birthdays to be exact -- and Adam wants you to donate your birthday to charity:water like he has the past two years.

You get up, you take a shower, you have a drink of water, you flush the toilet...all normal, everyday things, right? Unfortunately, wrong. Okay, some of us are lucky and have plenty of fresh water, so it’s hard to imagine that many people in the world don’t. And on World Water Day, celebs like Adele want to spread the word so we can help those in need.

Among all the #SpiritDay tweets we got from some of our MTV faves yesterday (like this one of the Jersey Shore cast), there was one tweet--totally unrelated, but just as good--that really caught our eye. Teen Wolf's Keahu Kahuanui, who plays a gay character on the show, shared footage from Bethlehem Parents School and Orphanage in Rakai, Uganda where The Thirst Project was installing a fresh water well--funded by the Teen Wolf cast!

CHUG! CHUG! CHUG! CHUG! But make sure you donate first! You don't want to end up drinking some nastayyy water like Edward Norton did. He's learned his lesson and has teamed with Water For People for their Donate To Drink $2 Million Challenge to help the 880 million people worldwide who don't have access to clean water.

Someone is knocking on Justin Bieber's door! Yep, you guessed it--Selena Gomez. And no, not his home door (well...that too, possibly?), we're talking his Most Popular on Twitter door.
