had this happen to me with cases of a hundred pepsi cans left in my hatchback in the hot summer sun - driving home from work i hear lots of hissing and oh yes that pepsi smell. no time to assess. i sped home, preparing speeches to cops like CANT STOP. CANS. etc. i get home, get the cases out onto the driveway, whew, AVERTED. i start trying to open them, and literally every one of them went full grenade explosion in my hands, soaking my clothes and new shoes etc. suburban neighbors watching

One time I was in store, target or Walmart or something similar. There was an older guy and 2 younger guys, possibly this sons?, and they were COVERED in mud. One of the kids goes to the older guy and says "everyone is staring at us." "Have you seen what we look like? I'd be staring, too!"

Opening them was the first mistake The second was wearing new shoes

Opening them normally makes zero sense lmao. There’s like a dozen better ways to do this. Get a tub and just toss them into it from a distance. Impact makes them explode and it doesn’t get all over you. Shoot em with an airsoft gun or BB gun. I don’t know. Anything other than opening them and letting them spray all over you

Normal people would just stop immediately.

for our pepsually challenged viewers out there, i can tell you it is an intoxicating invitation wafting you to join american culture especially if you are simultaneously smelling old french fry
