I actually thought this could go horribly wrong but still carried on squeezing. Obviously the seal split a second later leading to an earful of High5 gel and loads of it all over the kitchen floor ?

Ha!

I learnt something yesterday about whether energy packet are open or not:

If you see one dropped on the road and stop to pick it up, if it feels full, you should have a little look before you stuff it in your frame bag for the rest of the day.

It's about as likely someone dropped it just after they opened it, rather than just before.

If you squeeze hard enough, as it seems you did, isn't this just a self fulfilling prophecy?

Also, never poke your finger into microwaved food to check that it's hot on the inside. Even if you're drunk, it will still hurt like a ****.

Thank God it was nothing edible that was wasted.

First time aural sex? Don't worry it'll get better

On a similar theme... If you have a bottle of Torq and a bottle of water double check which is which before you try to wash the grit out of your eye

You are lucky it's only High 5.

My mate used to get and sell some knock off  Viagra type gel back in the noughties!

If that had gone into your ear you'd be hard of heading for sure.

Never try looking down through a brake caliper to see if the IPA you are spraying from below is going where you want it.
