Yea drinking from bottles and other plastic dispensers all the time will mess you up.

There's just microplastics in everything, dude. Everyone has an increasing amount in them year over year:

A new study by researchers with the nonprofit Ocean Conservancy and the University of Toronto found microplastics tiny particles ranging from one micrometer (one thousandth of a millimeter) to half a centimeter in size in nearly 90 percent of protein food samples tested.

It's not going away and even if we stopped using car tires and all other forms of microplastics today it would still be present in the ecosystem for hundreds (likely over 1,000) years.
