    Fun story…

    Back in the late 90s, several friends and I were doing the extreme Frisbee thing. An hour or so of just running around like the idiots we were, full tilt.

    We stop and hit up the gas station at the corner. Most of us pick up things like Gatorade or soda etc… Not Dave.

    This legend grabs 2 fucking jugs, about a gallon in total between them, of full fat chocolate milk.

    We get to the check out, pay for the batch. Most of us start drinking right there because we’re absurdly thirsty.

    Dave pounds down both jugs immediately… Not even stopping for breath.

    You likely see this coming… We all did. Slow motion car crash…

    Up it comes without delay. Just 1/2/3…

    Chocolate milk

    Chocolate milk

    … Chocolate milk.

    The attendant for the shop got a $150 tip that day.

    Dave was the best.

      I had a coworker named Frank. Frank was not the smartest guy. He wasn’t even the biggest guy. But Frank could EAT. He took a first date to a pizza place once and split an 18" pizza. The date had a slice. Frank ate the rest.

      Around 2007 or so, there was this milk challenge thing floating around where people online were trying to drink a gallon of milk. All of them inevitably failed, because that is a shit load of milk. However, Frank was convinced that he could do it. So much so that he was willing to put money on it. We had a conversation like this.

      Me: Frank, no way can you drink a gallon of milk. It’s too much.

      Frank: Absolutely I can. Wait. Can it be chocolate milk?

      Me: Sure, Frank. Normal. Chocolate. Doesn’t matter.

      Frank: Oh then absolutely I can.

      As dumb as Frank was though, he was actually smart…ish on this one. Before doing it at work with money on the line, he wanted to do it at home first. So he went home that night and tried it.

      Next day, Frank surprisingly wasn’t at work. He had called in sick. When he finally came back, I asked him how his attempt went. Frank didn’t want to talk about it.

      Vanilla is a chocolate enhancer. For some reason many people’s brains have been programmed to think it’s like anti-chocolate but nothing is further from the truth.

    Can confirm, though 'tis the season to start temporarily substituting eggnog for the choccy milk.
