Slurpee Geyser
I went by one of the few remaining 7-11s on earth and to my delight, found my favorite Slurpee flavor there--Banana Split. Whee! Well, being the practical-minded young lady that I am, I was determined to get my full 79 cents worth. So I did the thing where you fill it, then put the bubble-top on, then fill it to max through the hole on top. As you know, this can be a very delicate procedure.

Well, I was extrememly triumphant when I pulled my Slurpee away because it appeared to be fully packed w/out any runover. But then this RUMBLING noise came from the depths of my Slurpee, and some kind of reverse pressure kicked in 'cuz that Slurpee shot straight out the top like a miniature geyser. I managed to get most of it in my mouth but three mini eruptions did occur. But hey, extra Slurpee for my buck.
