That was the awesomest story evar!!

That was great. Glad you have a good sense of humor to laugh about it even while still dripping.

My mind must be in the wrong place. I kept hoping you'd say that the cashier was a good looking girl and the soda wetting her shirt... Well you know - if that had happened it would have made the whole thing even better to see.

Great story. What made it for me is not that the bottle exploded but how excited you got, knowing that there would never be another grocery trip like that one. In all seriousness, that takes a certain state of mind that I wish I had. Depending on the mood, I probably would have freaked the fuck out.

And I loved the comments on twins. Except for the Olsen Twins, you two are now officially my favorite twins ever.

I'm going to go to the supermarket and knock every single 2 liter on its side to see if I can duplicate your results. Anyone care to join me?

lol, this thread's classic

I was wondering if that would live up to the hype, alright it did, good show.<p>The twin rant was good as well.

Have you ever been on a double date and halfway through, gone to the bathroom, swapped clothes, and then finished the evening with each others dates?

Sorry, you didnt mention that one and I couldnt resist :D

Oh, also, it was a damn funny story!

This is even better than the story. :lol: *litterally laughing my ass off*

But uhh...which would you prefer, not twins but people keep on thinking you're twins, or twins and people telling you twins joke. I get the former...and its pissing me off.

Great story; the time it happened to me wasn't so good. Working in a supermarket, nobody even close to the softdrinks but me, at the far end of the aisle. A two litre bottle of reguar sugary coke just sitting there completely still on the shelf decides to explode at random. Sprays a whole two shelves worth of pharmaceuticals on the wall opposite with sticky syrup. I don't think they EVER got it all out.

Fantastic story. Hell, that's right up ther on my list with clavus's story about being locked out of his house. What great fun.

Those bottles can handle an amazing amount of pressure. While in high school, I took a typical job working at a grocery store, mostly because my good friend worked there, too. We used to take the bottles that had lost their labels and puncture a small hole in the screw top. Then we would shake the crap out of them until they were really charged up. The next part took some room and a little practice: we would turn the bottle upside down, then throw it off of our loading dock with a big arm swing so it would land squarely on the lid. The pressure blowing out of the hole would shoot the bottle about 25 feet in the air, with a beautiful trail of soda behind it. Many bottle even landed on the roof of the store. Ah. Who says grocery stores are dull?

Ok, that explains everything except...

Why would any sane person purchase DIET Pepsi, clearly the most evil beverage known to man, it's like Satan's Urine, except sugar free!

Why you ask, why would a bottle of Diet Pepsi simply burst open, spewing it's horrific bitterness on all and sundry...

This is a job for those people off that show 'Mysterious Ways', since no such thing happens by chance...

Who was besmirched by the sickly artificially 'sweetened' Syrup of Satan? You, your girlfriend and the cashier, namely EVERYONE involved in the transaction...

The Cola Gods were giving you a warning dude, it was Divine CocaProvidence, like in Pulp Fiction...

And yet you chose to ignore that warning, and bought another Bottle 'o' Evil. I can only assume you're a Minion of the Dark Lord now, and your brother too...

Like those evil kids in the Shining...

Yes, I think we should all do this, it might even make the national news something like "Random Diet Pepsi bottles across the country explode in supermarkets"







To the supermarket!

the diet coke wasn't for lasereth and me. it was for my step dad, thus it wasn't for a sane person to begin with.

secondly, the most spectacular part of the entire story: i didn't get one drop of diet coke on me. lasereth, the cashier, the bagger and the entire candy asile was soaked, but i stood there in amazement without a drop of soda touching me.

Clearly then you are the Chosen One, whose coming was prophecised under the labels of selected Coca Cola Products...

I don't know why, but tears were pouring out of my eyes as I laughed reading that story...really good stuff!

Stories like this piss me off.

Why can't something that awesome ever happen to ME?!?

That ruled man.
