I GOT IN ANYWAY AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA
YOU COULD HAVE PREVENTED THIS

Silentbob

Just had a o.O moment.   

I had put a bottle of soda in the freezer to cool it down quick.   I forgot about it, and ran to the freezer to take it out.   Looking at it while it still was in the freezer, I saw that the contents had not frozen.    I took the bottle out, and in room temperature, the contents froze over instantly.   There is probably a fancy name for that reaction tho.

It's called Pressure, my friend.

The higher the pressure of a liquid (or any substance, at that), the lower its boil/freeze temperatures. When you then open it and depressurize the soda, it freezes because the freezing point gets higher - passing the actual temperature of the soda.

I had a similar one some time ago, when we were storing soda outdoors (in -6C-ish or so) after yule - it foams a lot when you pour it, and when I poured it, the foam froze instantly. It was pretty cool, and quite tasty. ;3

Well, the thing here is, it actually froze -before- I opened the cap.    I grabbed the bottle, and the second it hit warm ambient air, the contents just froze over in about 2-3 seconds. That is what made me go "o.O"

So today it's February 4th again - officially the worst day of the year for me :/ (you know the drama when a year ago my oh-so-nice prospective girlfriend dumped me via a F***ING TEXT MESSAGE).
But yeah, I'm over her and in some months I'll hopefully never see her again... yet after all this time it still stings a little, but I've long stopped blaming myself for the whole disaster.
Gonna whip out the guitar and play some nice, angry songs :S

That DEC looks teriffic o.o What's the exact model and the specs?
Seems you got a good catch here ^^

It's a Professional 350, has a 13.33mhz DCF-11 processor but I'm not sure what amount of RAM it has (though it has to be somewhere in the 256kb - 1mb range).

That really sucks. Getting dumped is bad enough but it was especially rude of her to not even do it face-to-face ...  : \

It's good you're not blaming yourself, though. If she didn't want to be with you, that's her loss; I think somebody as smart and creative as you would be quite a catch and some woman will realize that sooner or later. : )

I put another bottle in to see if I can replicate the event.   But I need to be quick with the camera lol.   It happened so fast. 

Chocofreak13

if your camera has a video setting, set it to record, then video the whole event, including taking the bottle out of the freezer.

@Paul: I kind of know what that's like, except for me it's late September-early October, or if I hear the Iron Maiden song, Judas Be My Guide (A song permanently banned from my mix for the bad, almost suicide-inducing memories forever tied to that song)

@Silentbob: That sounds cool, for lack of a better way to describe it :3

Silentbob

Bah, the other bottle isn't freezing the same way.  The soda seems to be freezing slowly, creating ice crystals inside the bottle and when I take it out, nothing happens.   Oh well.

Paul

@Bells: wow, that DEC is ANCIENT!!! :3
And thanks for the kind words, though I don't think I'm really smart or creative (just a wannabe in most cases actually xD)
Sooner or later is good... hopefully sooner ^^ I've been wanting a relationship for quite some time now and am kind of desperate lately.
And yeah, it took me quite a long time to get over it (almost half a year) but now I'm at the point where I'm actually glad that I don't have to see her ever again after this final school year is over. I've come to the conclusion that I think she isn't really a nice person, but rather just hiding under an all-to-cute and bubbly façade.

@Kari: I don't really think that love stinks... it's just that rejection can hurt you in some of the worst ways, I guess

@Pentium: Thankfully there's no particular song I associate with her, though I wrote some songs dealing with the whole situation...
