plonq: (Mediocre mood)

I was done with my fork, so I tossed it into my backpack.

I forgot that I had an unopened can of root beer in there.  The sharp tines of justice struck true.

That pretty much encapsulates my morning in a single incident.

It must be Monday.

Ouch.

I once had a can of rootbeer freeze and explode inside a fridge.
What a mess.

At least this was sugar-free.

I managed to life the root beer out of my backpack, swing it across my desk and toss it into the garbage. By the sound it was making, I could tell that it was spraying root beer the whole way, yet I can't find a single drop on the desk, computer, ceiling floor, wall, me... nothing.

I'm thoroughly puzzled about where this phantom jet root beer might have gone.

Been there. Done that. Didn't feel smart.

*chuckles* It wasn't just a freak occurence, then.
I'm inclined to put a fork and rootbeer in a backpack now and try it myself. ;-)

It happened to both me and [livejournal.com profile] pierrekrahn. How much more "freak" do you want?

... or do you mean the occurrence itself was a bit freaky?

I didn't even realize a fork could poke a hole in a soft drink can.
*ouch!*

Apparently it does if the fork hits it with just the right force and trajectory. I suppose I can put a positive spin on it and claim that I sacrificed the root beer in the name of science.

But I'm still thirsty.
