I may take my own life if you do not tell this fucking story.
And if this fucking story isn't all that it's cracked up to be, I'm coming after your brother.

ok guys he is doing a group project but he said he would do it as soon as he gets back I've already told quite a few people (even GIRLS!) and they thought it was hilarious. I guess if you knew him in real life it would be even funnier but you will just have to use your imagination he will be back shortly.

Oh man I have a lot of hype to live up to!
Ok, so my girlfriend's mom asks me and her to go buy 8 2-liters of drinks. 5 Diet Mountain Dews, and 3 Diet Pepsis. Food Lion had the best prices with an MVP card, so we chose the Food Lion route. You can only buy 4 2-liters with one MVP card, so we each had an MVP card. My girlfriend pays for the first 4 bottles, and then I set my bottles up on the register counter. I'm not entirely sure how the rest happened, but I'll explain it as accurately as possible: the cashier reached for the first Diet Pepsi. Now, I've seen quite a few 2-liters drop from say 5 feet and simply bounce on the ground, so if anyone wants to explain the following, feel free to do so: after reaching for the first 2-liter and knocking it onto its side, the entire mother fucking top half of the drink exploded! It didn't pop open. It didn't wine-bottle spew...this mother fucking exploded in half along the curve at the top. It cracked in half! The bottle started going around in circles on the counter, spraying EVERYTHING with Diet Pepsi. The first circle showered my legs in Diet Pepsi. That same round covered the cashier and the tabloids/candy rack. The second circle-round sprayed my entire face and head and got the cashier even more. By the second round, probably half a second had passed. This fucker was spinning like a Fourth of July rocket, all because the cashier knocked it on its side! It wasn't even in the floor! More rounds passed, while I just stood there thinking that this is the BEST day of my life. The casher finally put her hands over the Diet Pepsi, trying to conceal what was left in the bottle. That just made the Diet Pepsi streams go even further. When the bottle had lost whatever had possessed it, there was about half a 2-liter of Diet Pepsi covering everything in a 6-8 feet radius. I told the cashier, "That was awesome!!!" She asked me why I thought it was awesome. I knew damn well that this trip would be the most exciting grocery store trip EVER. My girlfriend got another 2-liter for us. I paid with a soaked MVP card and we walked out of the store. I was licking the Diet Pepsi off of my face right afterwards. Everything below my beltline was sprayed, and my arms and face were entirely covered. It was simply a euphoric carbonated experience! The most amazing part about the trip is trying to explain to people that the bottle literally fell onto its side. It didn't fall into the floor or anything, it simply fell over and exploded. I enjoyed the fireworks-type of dancing it did...that ensured maximum velocity and area covered. Well, that's about it. -Lasereth

That was fucking awsome. I can kindly relate in a less public manner. I once had a large jug of grape juice in my room (no fridge, so room temp). I cracked it open and took a sip, and then left it sealed (full for all intents and purposes) for about 3 or 4 days. On the fourth night of not really thinking about it, I accidentally tipped it over onto it's side, at which point it spewed a thin but long jetstream of grape juice foam from under the cap. I immediately picked it up and slammed it, top end down, into the garbage can. I stood right over it, with my face looking down upon it... right when the bottom of it blew out with a loud boom and a load of angry grape juice exploded into my face (and, unfortunately, my eyes, which stung a bit), and onto the ceiling.
I'm not entirely sure after being away at college, but I think the 2+ year old light-purplish stain on my ceiling in the scattered half circle (as the other half was protected... by my head) is still there to this day. Good stuff all around. |

I must say I've never heard of anything like that happening before, but it is quite a good story. Thanks for sharing, it gave me a good laugh.

Not a bad story.
The cashier and store was probably happy it was diet, as the non-diet sodas are so darn sticky. But I'm sure the cashier was unhappy, having to clean up his/her station AND finish work soaked with diet soda.

In all of my soda drinking history I have never ever heard of anything even remote to that.

For the record, yes, we get sick at the same time. We can use telepathy to cheat on tests, we've skipped classes for each other, and wrote papers for each other using said telepathy. Telekinesis becomes useful, but only when we're in the same room to channel our twin energies together. I am Pete and he's Repeat, and I'm Frick and he's Frack. You are seeing double, and yes, he is wiser because he's 4 minutes older. He is my big brother, and you're right, we're in the same fucking grade level. We trick our teachers if we don't feel like going to class and they never know. If he's hurt, I'm hurt, and I feel his every move. We say the same thing everyday because we think alike 24/7. Feel free to buy us a single birthday gift, because after all, we are the same person. You are original for using the aformentioned jokes and insights, and you're definitely the first person I've heard them from. Now that those are out of the way, maybe we can get some original comments! -Lasereth

Not sure what is more amazing, the fact you two are twins. (Honestly never would have guessed by ur E-Personalities [new word?] ), or that badass story about the 2-Litre.
I would have loved to standby and witness that.

I begged for a story without nudity in it? I am so ashamed!
So, when the 2-liter did spray you with carbonated love, was your brother feeling a little "wet behind the ears" as it happened? hehehe....
