Nothing worse than reaching for your Pepsi, and instead taking a big gulp from your spit cup!!

It's your sons way of asking for an increase in his allowance, cause he can't afford the real deal on the pitiful amount you give him. Don't fall for it!!

Worst thing that ever happened to my taste buds:

I woke up late one night, and thought I still had a can of coke on the night stand.
(You know how your mind is kinda fuzzy when you first wake up?)

It was one of those tall glass votive candles, full of melted WAX....

EEK! YUK!!!

I can still taste burnt ugly stuff, just thinking about it...

I was working in mainland China in 1989 and had just hat the worst 8 weeks of culture shock and yucky food you can imagine. I got a weeks R&R in Hong Kong and was looking forward to some real grub you could sink your teeth into. After a good nights sleep in the Hotel, I sauntered down to the Breakfast buffet and proceeded to go wild. After loading up a plate with a 25 meat (just kidding) omlett and all the hash browns I could fit on the plate, I noticed a wash tub full of ice holding pint bottles of milk. Now being a farm boy, I do love milk and hadn,t had any in 8 weeks, Remember the shape of those glass bottles the milkman used to deliver with the paper stoppers? Well these looked just like that only smaller, so I got 2, went back to my table and proceeded to chow down. After a few mouthfulls of the food, I ripped the stopper out of the first milk bottle and never thinking to use a sipping straw and look civilized, I upended the milk and proceeded to slug it down. Just as I was about to swallow, the taste hit me, and it definately was not the taste of fresh sweet milk, but more like Hersheys syrup, but without the chocolate. After almost spewing this stuff over those seated around me, I finally swallowed it down and then began to study the hen scratch writing on the bottle to decipher just what happened. After some time I realized this stuff was condensed coconut milk. The remainder of the breakfast just wasn't as much fun as I anticipated anymore.

I did that the other day. I basically live off of Pepsi and I stopped and went into a store and picked up a Pepsi, paid for it and walked out the door and opened it and took a drink and it was the new wild cherry pepsi. I almost spit that crap out. I ended up pouring the rest of the bottle out it was so nasty. To me it tasted just like taking a few spoonfuls of Robitussin or other cough medicine.

I like going to Taco Bell or something and getting Dr. Pepper. Then my wife goes to take a drink of it and I tell her it is Root Beer or something. You should see her face. Once she told me that the Root Beer was bad because it tasted like Dr. Pepper! HAHAHA!
