Shopper Drinks Mouthwash, Spits it Back And Returns To Shelf

Jumping aboard a disgusting viral challenge, a shopper has filmed themselves gargling Listerine mouthwash before spitting it back in the bottle and returning it to the shelf. The grim challenge reportedly took place in an unnamed American branch of Walmart, and is believed to have been inspired...

Root for the meteor.

Shit’s getting too weird.

Or maybe root for a magic device that destroys social media forever.

 

[DESTROYA]

If caught everyone of these idiots should be fined by authorities and banned from social media.

Ice cream girl is facing 20. This seems like more.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Waiting for the person to repackage in used toilet paper.

 

[Juke Joint Jezebel]

At least she bought it afterwards.

 

[EviLore]

I hope that's an alcohol-based mouthwash for the sake of the person who bought it.

 

[Pagusas]

Didn’t they find the ice cream licker and aren’t pressing charges because she’s a minor?

 

[Ol'Scratch]

Didn’t they find the ice cream licker and aren’t pressing charges because she’s a minor?

Yes and no. She will not be tried as an adult but still may face charges and some kind of time or something but because she is a minor it will not be publicized. Her boyfriend with her however was an adult and they are considering charges against him also.

 

[Punished Miku]

Has no one heard of plastic? Get the mouthwash that has a sealed plastic wrap around the lid.

 

[Petrae]

This is why Ice Cream Licker (and her accomplices) deserves a harsh sentence. She’s set off a bunch of copycat assholes now. She can cool her jets in jail for a few years and no tears would be shed, and maybe Blue Bell can file civil litigation.

Or maybe root for a magic device that destroys social media forever.

If only... social media is playing a major role in the collapse of humanity.

If caught everyone of these idiots should be fined by authorities and banned from social media.

$10,000 fine, and enforced permanent bans from social media (with jail time as a result for any perpetrator who tries to skirt the ban). That would be a good start.

What in the Fuckity Fuck McFuckins is wrong with you people? Who gives a shit what gender it is that has nothing to do with the story or anything surrounding it. What is your damage?

Yep. I pretty much never buy food, mouthwash etc. that isn't sealed. Produce aside and I wash that shit well.

 

[Ol'Scratch]

I feel that this is going to become more of a thing with everyone trying to get that social media minute. Like people have said they need to come down hard

 

[SLoWMoTIoN]

I mean trashy ass people and teens have been doing this for the last 40 years though.

 

[davepoobond]

ruin store products challenge is the newest cool challenge since that vacuum yourself in a garbage bag challenge

 

[DeepEnigma]

No, no mental instabilities detected.

Thought you were going to talk about that other vacuum challenge for a moment there. Totally did not work by the way.

 

[Birdo]

Remove likes from all social media and the karma whoring will stop.

 

[Mista]

Ice cream girl facing 20 isn’t a good example? Fucking disgusting

 

[DiscoJer]

Listerine is alcohol based. It's also sealed, so it's unlikely anyone would buy it.

 

[abstract alien]

Did people do shit like this regularly back in the day, or is it done more now because of the stupidity that is social media? I'm definitely leaning towards the latter, but is that objectively true?

 

[eddie4]

 

[ipukespiders]

Everything consumable I've bought in the last decade has a seal of some sort on it.

 

[real1]

nasty fuck piece of trash

 

[Lanrutcon]

I think there are enough people now. Society should probably just be run through a strainer at this point.

 

[GingerNathan]

In the UK the bottle caps are child safe (can't just twist them off) and there's a plastic seal on new bottles, if that's the same in the US then the bottle has been prepared before hand.
I'd certainly never buy mouth wash where the seal has already been broken.

Anybody that does this kind of thing is an absolutely disgusting product of social media.

 

[Halo is Back]

This reminds me of the tide pod challenge, truly a disgusting species we are

 

[Texas Pride]

I saw this and I believe it's staged. Point is if you wanna be a nasty motherfucker be a nasty motherfucker in your own nasty motherfucking space and not in public. I would as God is my witness smack the shit out of anyone I saw doing this in public. I think it's everyone's duty to confront idiocy and nasty ass people.

 

[Wimbledon]

No common sense, or decency for anyone else whose just trying to get by.

The last thing the average person needs in there life, is to pick up a serious disease from buying something.

This better not become some widespread trend.

 

[Falcs]

What is wrong with people?
That guy needs help.

 

[Shelbutt]

I see your POS, and raise you THIS POS!

 

[Brizzady]

I'm still waiting for the nickname before I know what that was. Mouthwash Girl? Mouthwash Guy? Yiiiiikes.

 

[quickwhips]

That’s a guy dressed as a chick right?

 

[Tesseract]

that is fucking disgusting

don't buy anything that ain't safety capped

 

[DESTROYA]

I'm still waiting for the nickname before I know what that was. Mouthwash Girl? Mouthwash Guy? Yiiiiikes.

I call him/her the spitter.

 

[SLoWMoTIoN]

I bet this shit doesn't happen in Target.

 

[JareBear: Remastered]

So it’s becoming a new viral challenge?

Wow.

 

[Petrae]

So it’s becoming a new viral challenge?

Wow.

There was no way that this wasn’t going to become the next “challenge”. Social media is all about copying viral trends and hoping to extract similar popularity spikes as a result.

The more this catches on, the more I’d like to see Ice Cream Licker here suffer severe penalties. She may have not technically been the first to pull this shit, but thanks to her, it’s becoming more common.

Hopefully law enforcement is reviewing social media as well and keeping tabs on who to investigate. I mean, people are doing it for public consumption, so they’re ripe for questioning at minimum and tampering charges at worst.

 

[Silent Duck]

Humanity was mistake.

 

[Petrae]

Humanity was mistake.

Social media was the mistake. It brought out the worst in humanity. I can’t help but to wonder what it would be like if social media had never existed, but it does— and humanity has devolved into a log of shit.

We've always been shit, it's just easier to spot and spread now.
Luckily, you can tell if mouthwash and soda have been opened, so hopefully no one takes it after them.

 

[Shelbutt]

Wow.

Yup. Saw a guy open a gallon of Arizona ice tea drink onegulp and put it back so. Yuck

Good lord I really hope that's not true. From what I read she's kind of young. I think some embarrassing community service is more appropriate. 20 years - do swatters even get 20 years?

It's 2 to 20 years but since she is a minor she won't get any, probably just community service and a fine.

There was another one this year or last year I can't remember and now I can't seem to find it. Was some white girl tampering with food as well, can't remember if it was a pickle jar or what. Search isn't coming up with anything.

 

[Petrae]

20 years maximum, which is a less than 1% chance of happening— especially for a minor.

There’s an argument to be made for a (far) shorter sentence, though. Serving a few months up to a year, either in juvenile detention or house arrest with her legal guardians or parents, will hopefully be discussed prior to sentencing.

 

[stickkidsam]

That's fuckin out of left field and down the rabbit hole.

If they bought it afterwards though then no harm no foul.

 

[Fbh]

These people should be fined and banned from the store (not just that particular branch) for several years.
If they are minors the ban should apply anyway and they should get a crapton of community service.

Fuck all these degenerates. Looks like I'm sticking with cans for drinks.
