Does your milk do this?
A few nights back I was in the kitchen making a cup of coffee in the dark.
It was like.. 5am and I couldn't sleep and I was trying to be quiet so instead of turning on the kitchen light I left it dark.. set out the creamer, sugar and milk in a little line so I wouldn't knock anything over... out of habit I popped the top off of the milk jug and set it back on top without pushing it into place so I wouldn't have to deal with it when my coffee came out of the microwave anyway.. i was standing there watching my coffee go around in circles when I heard a pop and saw something fly past my face... when I looked down the cap wasn't on the milk, it was laying on the counter with little droplets of milk around it... so i put the cap back on top of the jug still not pushing it completely onto the jug and stood there peering at it in the dark after a few seconds passed by I was rewarded by another pop and a flying milk cap! officially FREAKED out I poked the jug with my index finger a few times and picked up the jug, holding it at arms length peering down inside of it mumbling to myself about 'devil's' and 'possession' as I tried to make sure nothing alive or otherwise sinister was residing in the jug. I still have no idea why it was doing that, I haven't been able to get a repeat performance but seriously, since when to milk caps jump off of the milk jug?? has this ever happened to you? would it freak you out? how would you react? would you still use the possessed devil's milk? I am proud to say that I made my coffee, complete with milk *nods* I totally showed that jug who was boss! |
Holy crap! D:
I have had it plop off slightly but never POPED off like that. xD |
*screams* Devil's Milk!! lol, I've never had scary milk like that. It's really weird... have you had any issues since?

lol it didn't plop, it damn near exploded and took my eye out!
I'm still half-afraid of the milk jug lmao but i have to use it because coffee without it.. just isn't the same *sniffles* |
The best I can figure is that there was rapidly increasing pressure in the jug, caused by gas or the jug's shrinkage.
|
That is really strange lol. We get cartons personally so I can't try it right now... *very curious*
Was it an unusually hot day maybe? But to get that powerful of a reaction is something else. XD |
but how many times in a row can said pressure increase at a rapid rate, wouldn't the pressure go down after being let loose multiple times?
I stood in the kitchen and kept repeating this process for a good 10 or so times, i would think the pressure would peter out after that point.. the same theory could be said for gas, as for shrinkage I couldn't say, if it shrunk i didn't notice anything :P @Mekoness: no it was actually cold that morning and rainy at that. As far as I can tell it was just a random thing which makes it doubly strange to boot! |
WTF? :0
Weird pressure in your house. XD I've never had that happen. :\ strange as hell, though. Was the coffee good? |
my coffee is always good but nothing compares to the first cup out of a fresh pot!
and this house is weird.. not the house house but the people in it, we're all tardos from hell but at least we don't lack for entertainment, hell, half the time I have to wear earplugs just to think! |
XD
Both of my sisters were baristas. :3 So I get really yummy coffee the few times I drink it. (I'm more of a tea fan) One of my sisters (the younger of the two. They're both older than me though) learned how to make really extravagant latte art. :0 She did a bird once. It was amazing. |
ask her to make a chinchilla hehe I would just to be difficult, but I'm a brat like that :P
and I LOVE herbal tea, spearmint and peppermint are my favorite ones.. mmm soo yummy and relaxing |
XDDD
I should! (if she had a reference pic, I bet she could do it!) I like peppermint and lavender for my herbal teas. And spearmint. Otherwise, I like Jasmine Green Tea and Genmaicha green tea. ;3 |

I've had the cap jump off my milk plenty of times. But it is a milk cap, so it is destiny that it cap my milk so I always put it back in its place, no matter how it resists. You can't screw with destiny milk cap. It's in your design, in your milk cap DNA!
|
I've never even heard of that happening before. Are you sure the milk isn't bad? That would freak me out quite a bit.
|
Ummmm....You shouldn't have used that milk.
The reason the cap flew off is because bacteria had started to produce gas in that milk I think. It could be potentially poisonous. Had it just popped off once, I don't think it would be, but for it to happen consistantly...Doubt it would be the cap for it wouldn't get enough energy to fly too far. Jug doesn't provide any energy for this. Yeah, there's a good chance it had gone bad. |
Sometimes the caps are just defective. That's why they've popped off mine, either that or I didn't get it in the grooves right.
|
Your a brave woman to have drank some of that. I don't believe in devil and possession, but I do believe in food poisoning. I would have flushed it and cried till I got new milk or creamer.
|
I love your chinchilla, but my milk has done that once I think. It's probably some gas in it or something. Either that, or there really are demons inside our milk. :cry:
|
I think it may have happened to me a few times in the past but probably not as forceful as you're saying... I think it has to do with the difference in the temperatures between the fridge and the inside of your house...
|
I had that happen before. I've left it on the stove and it got too hot though. I also had it happen when the milk went bad. I hate milk now though so I haven't had to deal with a milk jug in years.
|
But teh milks help you gets teh strong bones ;3

|
@Randal: It also tastes like poo though. XP i like soy milk much better. I'm border line vegan so I do without a lot of true dairy products.
|
@Kiwi: No she didn't spell ma name wrong D< and how do you know what poo taste like? 0__0
