My wife has some skintimate shaving gel in the bathroom. On the bottom of the can is a little black plastic thing. Well I was bored and I was on the can so I grabbed it and pushed the little plastic thing on the bottom.
Now she is almost out of shaving gel and it's all over the bathroom.

Mrsskoorb did that the other day. And then she did it again and I asked her to stop. I don't know why they have those but I'd guess it's so that once pressure gets to a certain point (perhaps you're in a plane or something) before the can explodes it will have this valve on the bottom...

That would be an easier way to get it there. Call me strange I was just thinking how great it would be to have shaving cream all over my body right now. :confused:

I'd be more worried about the little shards of aluminum in my body more than the saving cream ;)

Hey, at least it's aluminum; you won't have to worry about rust.

lol.. a long time ago.

Who would be stupid enough to mess with a little rubber thing on the bottom of a pressurized can.. and be surprised when sh!t squirts all over? :p
