Damn Mondays

Is there even such a thing as a “good” monday? Even those Mondays I get off work leave a bitter taste in my mouth. My coworkers try even harder to irritate me on Mondays. I swear to every fucking god up there, everytime Sydney (female annoyance that wants to be in my pants) talks, I die a little bit inside…..

 My pile of work is glaring at me. I know this sounds like a PCP fueled hallucination, but its not. My work wants to kill me; hopefully I’ll pull a JK Rowling with one of my books and WHAM! Bye Bye workload. Boy, this post is spiraling down into the pits of emo fast. Pretty soo we’ll be listen to Fall Ouy Boy (I seriously doubt the “boy” part) and cutting our wrists. Yech.

 Possible Holiday Bomb

The supply list for this prank is short and they are easy to find:

1. 35mm canister

They will give you these for free at Walgreens or most one hour film development labs.
The white ones with the tighter lids work better than the black ones.

2. Can of compressed air

Your common air duster – found at most offices. Used for blowing the dust out of computers and keybaords.

3. Some confetti

I bought some for a dollar to make it somewhat more Christmas, but those holes from the hole punch work great!

This part is simple – just turn the can of air upside down, and then spray a little of the liquid inside.

WARNING The liquid inside is extremely cold and extremely flammable. Caution is advised, especially when dealing with something that can both cause frostbite and severe burns.

Once the liquid is inside, quickly dump as much confetti inside as you can, without getting any in the way of the lid. (If the lid cannot close tightly, the pressure will not be able to build.) Finally, close the lid tightly, set it next to your intended victim and then quickly walk away!

Now comes the kaboom.

It will take anywhere from 5 seconds to a good minute to explode, depending on several factors.

If you spray a lot of liquid inside, it will take longer to evaporate and build up pressure.

If the ambient air temperature is high, the liquid inside will likely evaporate much faster.

For a bigger boom, turn the canister upside down and use more liquid. Stand clear of it if you do. The resulting explosion is pretty violent, especially for a little canister.
