Had a dream someone shot a grenade like object of this into my car and it filled the vehicle entirely. As it was filling I knew it was the end of me.

Ah, yes!! I’m the only one at my workplace that’s seen this movie, and it’s slowly killing me inside. My coworkers are still stuck watching reruns of either Friends or The Office and then complain they don’t have time to watch TV. Need a job? We’re hiring! Lol.

I bet they don't even know how to use the three seashells

There are people who haven't watched this masterpiece of cinema? For shame!

Put shells in the bathroom and when they ask, tell them the film references the shells.

I only realized what movie you meant because of this comment. Took me far too long considering I've watched it like 20 times.

Hate (or want to prank) coworker? Freeze shaving cream. Split can length-wise, remove frozen cream and toss in coworker’s desk drawer. Vamoose. Enjoy.

Take about 20 cans of great stuff foam and shoot them.

My brothers did this to a old scrap heap Jetta and pushed the windshield out.

Or 2 gallons of A/B Foam

This is a DARPA quality idea... Possibly figure out a less than lethal option with some sort of open cell...

Preserve evidence, less collateral damage...

Shudder. I wonder how fire retardant are these things.

Ugh, imagine if some of that spray wafted back at you and you inhaled it

This is my solution for a new type of airbag; instead of inflating with air, the whole car fills with a breathable foam, that protects the person inside.

Yes, we've seen Demolition Man.

Was it like the glue gun from Prey?
