    • Appropriate use would be to through them on the ground for a little snap. I could have gotten away with that about 40 years ago.

    • Yes, they are known as “Pop Rocks” and they are a pressure-sensitive very small explosive. They won’t hurt much if you squeeze them in your fingers – but don’t try it, okay?

  1. I’ve done that before. Showed that prank to my nieces and nephews too, like a good uncle should. I buy a carton of Snap and Pops at the fireworks distributor I deal with every year to keep on hand for the kiddos to play with. Have a few boxes left I’ll trot out when the weather gets nice again and they can play outside.

  2. I was married to a woman who could do that witout the snappys…but she was Bi-Polar…yes, two bears in one…we didn’t last….

  3. Muahahaha! Legend. Worth it to chuckle as you try to sleep on the couch with one eye open for the next few lunar cycles. Check your towels for Deep Heet and similar shenanigans. Handcuff her for a longer while unless your name is Claud Bawlz.

  4. You only need two, just put them under the cushion between the seat and the toilet itself, then put the seat down veeeeeeeery slowly.
    Saves on ammunition. See me for other fun tricks with pop rocks.

    • I did that with a couple of those ampules of rotten egg/ sulfur smell oil. Hilarious when she came out of the restroom. BTW this was at a local watering hole with small restrooms.

  5. An alternative is a mild contact explosive consisting of iodine crystals and near 100% ammonia. Mix the two and it’s stable as long as wet but the precipitate pops at the first vibration when dry. Great source of fun when a drunk puts his key in a door lock. Works well under toilet seats as well.
