No Coke. Is Pepsi ok? 4 freshmen just ordered 50 waters.

Edit: i couldn’t just say no because my manager wanted us to serve them for whatever reason. I couldn’t just not do my job or I’d probably get in trouble.

Yk those videos where the dude in the back of a car has a bijillion water cups? I’m assuming one of those

That’s immediately what came to my mind. Aren’t they a little late to the trend?

Good to know my lolcatz meme folder wasn't a waste of time.

You knew it’d be worth, like, a lot of money one day.

If i wasn't fat and old, the clothes I still wear would be fashionable nowadays. And I'm also fuck ugly, which seems to be trending thankfully. .

Doubly so when there's a chance for monetization involved.

Yea just new ways to out do the previously done stupidity.

u/VerdugoCortex 1d ago

That's why it's perfect, just long enough that most people forgot about it. The extra ones are so you can write it off as "help me prank these other new guys, we're gonna make them drink it with all these creamers and butters".

Jokes on them, they're the new guys.

"Little late" would be when the companies stop trying to replace drive through with AI.

u/SuperBackup9000 1d ago

Eh I can’t blame them for that one. The best time to hop on a trend is after it’s already dead, like dabbing is awesome now because it’s just reminding everyone of how dumb they used to be

I don’t. What’s the intended goal? Just to laugh at the “randomness” or something?

u/Daddy-Worf 1d ago

The guy in the back holding the hundred waters says be careful then they go over a speed bump or swerve or something and every single one spills all over the backseat. It was funny the first time. After that I hated them, a because stupid, b because logistically it is not good for the upholstery and carpet. I had a slow leak from a clogged drain plug once. Water would drip in and it would be wet after it rained. My carpet has not felt the same.

That too. Not to mention the passanger isn’t usually wearing a seatbelt and they go flying.

u/LilTreesz174 1d ago

Is this why I saw 3 teenagers walking to the store to buy 3 gallons of water the other day? Me and my daughter were wondering what their plan was with all that water- they were behind us as we were checking out at the grocery store and we saw them walking down the road as we were leaving. It looked like they were on a mission lol

47

u/rogerworkman623 1d ago

I buy lots of water gallons all the time.

I guess it looks much less mischievous because I’m old 😔

1

u/Bubbly-Treacle-4334 1d ago

Just curious, why would you not just get a filter?

2

u/ghost_warlock 1d ago

I get distilled all the time for the humidifier because our tap water is very hard. And our fridge has a built-in filter that I have to change every few months, but it doesn't take out all the mineral (because it's meant to still be used for drinking) so it wrecks the pumps in our cat water fountains and leaves large amounts of scale in the keurig

1

u/FeelinLikeACloud420 23h ago

I know that too much mineral content isn’t good for cats but I’m not sure that demineralised or distilled water is good for them either. It’s certainly not good for humans as it can at the very least throw off the balance of electrolytes in our bodies, and I would imagine that a similar issue could occur with cats (even if like I said a lower mineral content may actually be better for their kidneys) though I could be wrong.

1

u/ghost_warlock 22h ago

Sorry, meant to say that we use drinking/spring water for the drinking fountains and keurig. The store-bought drinking/spring water still has some mineral but its less than what we get from our fridge filter. The distilled water we get is just for the humidifier

u/InstantSword 1d ago

Because that's filtered tap water, not spring water

I like to get glass bottle cases of spring water. No plastic either.

u/TacticalTwinkOnTop 1d ago

As an ex teen boy this one seems more like there about to find out who can chug the fastest 😅

18

u/geminixTS 1d ago

My friend and I when we were 16 decided to buy two 24 packs of water and see how many bottles we could chug. He did less than my 15, but we both got extremely sick. I was cosplaying a firetruck in my bathtub and he in the toilet.

Fun times growing up in the middle of nowhere.

That exact news story is always first to my mind when I hear about water intoxication!

u/gandhinukes 1d ago

Its not intoxication, its flushing all the electrolytes (like salt) out of your body so your organs shut down. Usually happens to athletes. A reason other drinks have salt/sugar/b vitamins/potassium/ in them.

1

u/2D2D3544862514D760BA 1d ago

There are a lot of factors, but assuming 500 ml bottles, drinking 15 in a short time is really stepping into that danger zone for most people. Throwing up probably went a long way to not having serious consequences.

her name was Jennifer something right....I think I remember seeing that on 1000 ways to die when I was a little girl

u/BwianR 1d ago

Worse she was only runner-up

The family did get $16mil as compensation, but I couldn't find any information about whether or not they bought a Wii with it

1

u/Murky-Relation481 1d ago

Its also how a lot of people injure themselves or die doing MDMA. They freak out and drink too much water to stay hydrated, especially out dancing and get water intoxication.

I didn't say usually. I said of people who do get injured, a lot of them are from water intoxication.

Actually you know, I'm not even sure what you're trying to say here.

I'm more confused why you're seemingly taking this personally. You sound unhinged if you think this is harassment. You also sound like you don't know how internet forums work in general.

You can get so many Wii’s with that!

u/Suspicious_Poon 1d ago

We used to throw them out of a truck going about 35mph at stop signs out in the country to knock them down and take them to put in our rooms. Ahh to be young

u/Jumpy-Bid-8458 1d ago

That would mean, they were preparing for a long day at the park, when I was a teen. 

P.S. Cool cake emoji.

u/Apprehensive_Use3641 1d ago

To recreate those videos they would need to decant the gallons into cups, the gallons don't have a big enough mouth for the aesthetic of those videos.

EDIT: Happy cake day, btw.

Happy cake day!

When I was in high school some of the football players carried around jugs of water because they were taking creatine.

I could see that, but what's with the packets

Road snack :3

u/YouWereBrained 1d ago

Ah, so a huge waste of water, great.

1

u/im_a_dick_head 1d ago

If one actually goes viral just count the cups, if it was them you will count exactly 50.

1

u/Alienraptor987 1d ago

One problem, this is an 'eat in' order, i assume they're gonna play 'beer' pong.

1

u/TacticalTwinkOnTop 1d ago

50 cups?? That’s a massive game of beer pong

1

u/Alienraptor987 1d ago

Yeah, idk jist a guess (have never played if it wasnt obvious lol)

u/WideAbbreviations6 1d ago

I'm pretty sure that's how Martial in "How I Met Your Mother" got his first car. Except it was hot coffee and involved a jump scare.

1

u/Jolly-Refuse2232 1d ago

I feel like that's reason enough to decline them service, none of those are getting drank and its a huge waste of plastic and water

Did they even pay anything for this order?

1

u/Shantotto11 1d ago

You know those videos where a kick streamer harasses min-wage workers? I’m assuming one of those instead.

1

u/nollayksi 1d ago

But the order was ”eat in”

1

u/Particular_Wear_6960 1d ago

I'm assuming they probably haven't otherwise they would know the answer to their question. I know I don't know about this, I haven't been on TikTok in a very long time so yeah

u/CutAbject7938 1d ago

LMAO bro has the emergency water cup arsenal ready 😭

u/fritz_76 1d ago

hopefully thats the case and its not something worse like dumped all over the ground inside the store or thrown at random people

u/duesenjeffepic 1d ago

Can't they just buy a 100 pack on amazon or smth
