Yes, yes it can. All but two cans erupted violently inside my car.



On the positive side, I no longer hear any rattles.
 
Also...you can't freeze a fart by farting in an empty plastic coke bottle, twisting it, then putting it in a freezer.

Apparently twisting the coke bottle won't reduce the volume enough to increase the bottle pressure to allow the fart to desublime.
 
Coca-Cola cans exploded in your car? As in that company from Atlanta. I'd say that's a little karma for that Falcons jab you took at me in my thread about moving to Atlanta. :hihi:

I hate you right now.

:ezbill:
 
was the box still closed? I know you still get your seats soaked that way but at least you don't have to clean the roof liner.

my step brother was in the car with us once and we stopped and got some snacks. He had a spree candy in his mouth and took a sip of Dr Pepper. When his mouth filled with the carbonation he spit the candy out into the Dr Pepper. Like baking soda and vinegar that thing went off. All over the car roof and all.
 
That happened to me a few years ago, except it was cans of beer. My whole car smelled like it. I kept hoping to come across a DUI checkpoint. "Sure officer, I'll take your sobriety test!" never happened though.
 
Soda cans seem to be a lot thinner these days. Had a 12 pack start leaking in an airconditioned room.
 
I hope you can take solace in the fact that my blueberry stains came off.:9:

It was closed initially but at some point it opened. Coke was dripping down from the head liner. Inside windshield, dash and center console thoroughly covered.

You have two choices.

Or option 3: Give car to wife and purchase new car for me.

Luckily that was going to happen in the next few months anyway. I might even get it cleaned before I give it to her.

Your wife must be a saint. First she lets you build your own house and take 5 years. FYI, I didn't have any grey hair when you started, but your scaffolding has aged me. Next, she'd take a coke bomb hand me down so you could get a new one. That's bizarre.

Last year my wife's Volvo hit 75k miles and my Escalade hit 100k. I told her I was thinking of getting something new and she comes home with a gl550. Now, I can't afford a new car for myself so I had mine detailed and some trim pieces fixed to feel better about it.

Your wife sounds like mine.

"Hey, I want to get a little old beater truck from a guy on Craigslist for trips to Lowe's and stuff. It would be around $1000."

"OK but can it wait until next month? How I want to buy these Manolo Blahniks and they're only $600."

:rolleyes:

Yeah, she got the shoes, and I'm hauling around a lawnmower in the back of a Nissan hatchback. FML

They must be twins separated at birth. These were the latest thing to show up at my house for the 4th of July and her birthday. They were so over the top I had to photograph them to send people so they'd believe me.

I bet they cost more than my first car and certainly more than the handmedown Biz is giving his wife who may actually appreciate it. These should be in that college tuition part-time job thread.

Your wife is NEVER allowed to speak to my wife!
