too much carbonation. they’d notice. I think the true play is to fill it with soy sauce, so that you can casually take a sip during meetings to freak people out.

Gross. Who sips coffee?

You should fill a Starbucks cup with soy sauce and sip that.

Go with iced tea. It’s not carbonated. Plus, like soy sauce, it’s also brewed.

Roughly translated:

We exorcise you, every unclean spirit, every satanic power. Every infernal invasion of adversity, every diabolical assembly and sect. Therefore, curse the dragon, make your church safe to serve you in freedom. We ask you. Listen to us.

My father used to open cat food tins from the bottom clean the cat food out after it had been used and then fill the rest with chocolate mousse and reseal the bottom of the can. Then open the top of the cat food can, stick in his spoon and start to eat it.

He did this 20 odd years ago and is still famous for it all these years later.

Wow. Your father is legit a legend. I’m going to try this in his honor, maybe do a routine where I force them to pick which one I open, then eat…?

There’s an urban legend about animators at Pixar pranking Listerine executives while making a commercial. They filled one of the bottles with apple juice and made $20 bets to drink it. Supposedly one of the reps watching it being chugged went running for the bathroom to throw up.

I didn’t even know this existed until a few years ago. The original version isn’t sold in my country, even though there are like 10 different varieties of Listerine available in stores.

Yeah apparently used to be golden colored. Which I’m surprised by because I was always under the impression that companies were required by law to make non-edible liquids, such as disinfectants, look unpalatable. Perhaps that’s just an EU thing.

(seems weird to say edible liquid but I don’t know how else to articulate it)

It’s kinda like buying banana ketchup when you mean to buy tomato ketchup. Sometimes you just look at the shape of the bottle or the area and your brain turns off.
