Well, yesterday I found a pack of vanilla coke cans, and knowing that they don't produce them anymore, my mom bought me a pack (I asked her to).
So, I was just sipping it today and the vanilla wasn't really sweet enough. So, I went to get some sugar. (I read the nutrition facts too, lol. 42 grams of sugar but I didn't give a forget)
And I began pouring it into the top of the can. I heard some fizzing, and I figured that was normal, considering the soda was being moved around. Then, a 1 inch stream of soda popped up. I put my hand over the top but that seemed to do nothing. Half of the can was already gone. It got all the way over the table, chair, and floor. And even better- the table has a table cloth, and the floor is rug. Just dandy!
I ran to get some paper towels and cleaner. As I was wiping it up, my sister noticed it, and her being the tattle tale she was born to be, she told my mother. And then a whole fight started, over yelling. I was pissed- I had it handled and she had to let her mouth run.
The soda is now soaking up in a towel.

people would yell at me because they don't care and they'd say this is "one of the many events that happen daily"
