Alright, before you open a can of soda, do you tap it? I know a few people who do this, and for some reason it really annoys me. Wiping it off I can understand, but the tapping...WHAT THE HELL?
I do not. Why would you tap it?
I have no ****ing idea. I've seen a few friends and family do it though. MINDBOGGLING!
Well, I don't. I wipe the little beads of water off of it if it's been in the fridge, though.
Yeah, I know what you're talking about. People do it so it doesn't fizz up and explode. Pretty sure it actually has no effect whatsoever, but it is annoying.
no, only northwest fags call it pop.
I call it pop and I'm northeast.
sigh, I knew it would come to this:

though I personally prefer to call it cola.
... ****ed up
the one I really don't get is the south calling it "coke". granted most are "coke" but for general usage I say soda. LOOKS LIKE I FOLLOW SUIT!
I call it by it's product name. (Coke, Lemonade, etc)
The real question here though is...DO YOU TAP THE CAN!?
no, if a can is fizzed up I drink the foam before it goes all over me.
All of Iowa calls it pop except Iowa County? I didn't notice that at all. I live in the county to the right of the only yellow county in Iowa.
People live in Montana?
I say either "soda" or "cola."
[quote=Ant;779332]though I personally prefer to call it cola.
Me too, we're twinkies. ^__________^
As for the tap'n, no.
Only if it's beer, it hightens the feel of it.
Makes it cool.
whoops, I forgot to mention that I do not tap cans, and also haven't seen anyone tap cans either :horse:
I call it "soda" and can't remember a time where I didn't call it that. And while I never tap my cans, I have a habit of spraying water on the top and wiping it with a paper towel before I open it, even if it looks clean. I haven't ever seen anyone tap their can either, come to think of it.
I seen a few can tappers in my day.
*spits*
Won't catch me doin no can tappin, ya hear? Don't mind a lil dab and a wipe though.
I like cola cubes. Do you guys get those?
not quite sure what you mean...the ice cubes in the shape of a tube? can stick your finger through them sometimes? cause those, I like.
Yeah, why not.

If you guys don't have them... I'd totally have posted them. Best hard candies ever.
Tapping the top of the can does not have any effect on the carbonation within and only morons do it.
Unless it's beer.
Because then it's cool.
So WillisGreeny's part of DA now?
Huh, cool.
Welcome aboard, comrade.
My statement still stands.
Poooooooooooor ExoXile.
That's all it takes!
IRIS IS A "MEMBER" THEN!?!? WOWWIE WOW!
I meant on a regular basis.
Tap'n beer's cool. :(
I'm going to punch you in the face if we ever meet. Just because you think tapping beer is cool. Ah man, the thought alone gives me shivers.
Pooooooor ExoXile
Haha, Ant, I'd give you a freebie. :)
Tap'n beer's awesome.
Period.

How Stuff Works has spoken.
Tapping is for gays. You have to ****ing shake that ***** up before you open it. Remember to wipe it off first, though.
Lol
There are two distinctive clicks in opening a can: There's a first click where you hear a hissing sound, but it doesn't actually open the lid, and then the one that cuts the thin metal and opens the can.
Having said that, if you open it slowly, allowing the first click to do its stuff, it gets rid of the carbonation anyways, unless you thoroughly shook it up first, in which case you'll get some that fills the inner ring of the top of the can, but otherwise doesn't really spray (bubbles at most).
Doing the Katzman One-Two Click Method, you're bound to have a clean, enjoyable time with your drink. Trust me, I drink a lot of soda. Some people even call me the Soda King.
Or, you know, just don't grab a can that's fallen on the floor or been shaken.
Also, did exo say twinkies? Does he even know what that means?

It's a freakin' cake bar, why?
It's also used whe couples wear the same clothes.
Which is why I confused it with twin.
Why are you making such a big deal out of it, anyway?
Hahaha.
:(
That's what it means in your own little messed up fag-world.
I can hardly believe you'd say that about us after declaring yourself as a twinkie.
Well, believe it.
I wouldn't expect anything less from a can-tapper like yourself.
^___^
Omfgm, i'm so drunk right now, queen.
I've even got the courage to tell you that if I ever see you, I'll beat the shit out of you, gr'day. :O)
Provnably not, but you know, ay least it'
FUKKEN EH!
Qeen, i'm gonna beat you up!
Really?
Doubtful.
No, seriously.
You guys are being way too serious.
But oh well!
See you in a week, maybe. :)
Now you've scared him off the internet. Good job Vamp.
I dunno. Ant's map seems pretty accurate. People do tend to call soda "coke" around these parts... I know I usually do.
Also, can tapping is retarded. If it's going to blow up, it's going to blow up. The end.
Should probably get that checked out, then.
sade, i'm gonna beat u up
...with your cock?
I can't decide if I feel threatened or not.
u shud
Was he talking about Shade or Slade? Both of them replied.
He was talking to both. **** them both up.
Am I unbanned yet?
apparently
and cats will **** you both up
I'd imagine instead of ****ing us up himself, he'd order a horde of cats to do it.
like willard
On that note, the way he's been quiet since he threatened us makes me uneasy. WATCH YOUR BACK, SHADE
no, I'm pretty everyone else will say no.
yeah, no
The king of cats?
Personally, tapping the can is the last thing on my mind.
Usually I just grab the can, open it, and take a swig before noticing I probably just slow down before it makes my throat burn anymore.
Seeing as I don't drink soda often, usually a treat when I do.
Oh and I live in South Florida, and mostly everyone just calls it by what it is. As in "Pass me the Sprite, please."
**** you guys, that movie was badass.
[youtube=XqRAA8TtjbA]XqRAA8TtjbA[/youtube]
idk, if you say so.
Now I want to watch the whole thing just to know what the **** is going on
looks like weeaboo alice in wonderland
haha what an idiot faggot
*retard faggot
haha what an retard faggot
It's Thursday, for me!
It's thursday for me too.
Good to be back, guys.
wait, did vamp say this thursday? I think he meant next thursday.
No, he didn't.
Shut up, The X.
lol at the preemptive deletion of posts.
still, I grow tired of EVERY post of his getting deleted. moderation is key here. hence why moderators moderate. **** that was slick.
Yeah, he had his week of silence. No more. Unless it's really stupid.
oh, so billards was over tonight. he takes out one of my precious vanalia cokes, and starts tapping on it. I ****ing flip and tell him to ****ing quit it. after opening it, it kinda fizzed out a bit. but he didn't use the katzman method and listen to the clicks. ugh, I was so ashamed.
and then to top it off derick mocked me by grabbing the soda and drinking it really hardcore cause I insist of making fun of his caffeine addiction.
friends.
lol
WHO NEEDS ENEMIES AMIRITE
Greatest slogan ever
[QUOTE=Ant;783335]one of my precious vanalia cokes,
so you're the person who buys that ****.
We don't sell Vanilla coke anymore. :(
Ant, wtf, vanalia? :D
oh wow, I didn't even notice how badly he spelled that. it's probably all of the fat clogging his brain.
I must not be the only one buying it. Since they brought it back after that **** black cherry vanilla **** came out.
and oh no, spelt a word wrong. ****
I don't know, but all those "vanilla, black cherry, ice cream" flavored sodas taste pretty bad.
you are a fool who does not know how to play the game.
But, like come on, ICE CREAM COKE?!
wtf srsly.
Pass me that krispy cream malt, thanks.
I'm sure everyone's seen that one commercial where it's the coke and like they are scooping it out and its ice creamed filled?
wtf =[
You guys have pretty cool sodas. Over here we just have all the regular stuff plus Coke with Lime, Coke with Lemon, Coke with Orange, DietCoke with Lime, DietCoke with Lemon, aaaand DietCoke with Orange.
and Cherry Coke, Coke Zero, Coke with Vitamins, Coke with Antioxidants.
I like Soda floats, I only had one in my life but it was highly enjoyable.
Vanilla coke is actually pretty good. Only reason I tried it was cause I assumed it tasted like cream soda, but it doesn't. Still all right though.
Perhaps the same could be asked of all religions.
yes.
What ever happened to DNL? That stuff rocked in an extreme manner.
What ever happened to DNL? That stuff rocked in an extreme manner.
Oh haha, didn't even get the initial pun. "I'd tap that can."
lol. Means put your willy in that [COLOR="Red"](preferred gender)[/COLOR]'s poop hole.
some DNL sounds really good right now actually.
DNL? **** that was a good drink.
I tap my cans :cookie:
just another reason you should kill youself
Lol, during Thanksgiving break I was at my friend's house hanging around with some other people. Some guy started tapping his can. Opened it and **** started fizzing all over his shirt. I lol'd pretty loud.
Serves him right.
now let me ask you this, did you think of this thread and vgc because he tapped his can right afterwards?!
As he started tapping his can, yeah this thread popped in my head.
VGC pops into my head every so often... Usually when I'm playing xbawks.
When certain topics discussed on here occur, usually I'll think back to VGC.
My girlfriend dumped me for the second time 20 minutes ago on the phone. I hate her very much since it included the "let's just be friends" **** right after telling me "I don't want to cheat on you".
No one cares, faggot.
Anywho, occasionally someone will come into my work asking about whatever and I'll be like "whoa, that kid is exactly like ant/zeta/judge." Good thing I don't have to interact with them otherwise I'd be tempted to say something.
[quote=WillisGreeny;786496]This is why I like Vamp, he slams sense in people with little effort.
Don't say that, I'm sure it takes a little effort.
Right, Vamp?
Back on topic, I decided to test the can-tapping theory last night. Bought a can of coke on the way home, shook it up - not vigorously, but enough that it would guarantee something of an explosion - then tried tapping it. I thought I could hear the air inside the can escaping, so I was all like 'lol lets try and see'...
It fizzed a little. PARTIAL SUCCESS?
It's weird how sometimes you visualize the person or character in a person's avatar saying their entire post. What avatar you have can have a huge impact on how others take your posts.
You can't just do it once. If the Mythbusters have taught me anything you need a control, one you tap, and one you insert thirteen pounds of explosives into.

SCIENTIFIC METHOD ****ING RULES
Let's apply it to can tapping.
whoa... it's like being back in grade nine science.
Dude, my 9th grade science teacher was badass. It seemed like every day she'd show up with a new injury, and be like "oh yeah, I got hit by a car while I was biking home last night. ALRIGHT GUYS LET'S DO SOME SCIENCE!"
IF, THEN, BECAUSE
Not mine. Mrs. Drago, notorious *****. Towards the end of the year in tenth grade she snapped. She jumped on a desk and just flipped out on everyone. Pretty freaky.
Teacher meltdowns are great. We made our 11th grade US History teacher cry. good times.
We all had to write letters of apology to a substitute teacher after we made her cry. :(
"do everyone a favour and kill yourself. we'll all be happier with you out of our lives
thanks"
My ninth grade science teacher was pretty cool. His name was Mr. Lamb and since it was the normal science class instead of honors, it was full of total retards.
I remember near the end of the year, we were doing rocket ship projects, so we watched the movie October Sky. At the end of that movie, they name their last rocket the Miss Riley, the name of their teacher, so we named our rocket the Mr. Lamb.
AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
did it bring him to his untimely death?
We spent quite a few weeks on a rocket project in class, round about what you guys would call eighth grade. There was some serious hype building up about us going out to launch it, and the whole school came into the playground to see it go off. The teacher lit the fuse to launch it, but when it reached the rocket, nothing happened. We were all like 'LIGHT IT AGAIN MISS LIGHT IT AGAIN'. Then she simply said 'it's too dangerous', and the whole launch was aborted because our teacher was too scared that it would blow up in her face. ***** SPOILED IT FOR 400 KIDS JEE WIZZ
DID YOU MAKE HER PAY!?!
no :(
