Fun:Spit-take

A spittake is a semi-involuntary reaction that occurs when you move to suppress a sudden explosion of air while you have a fluid in your mouth. The sudden burst of air can arise from a wide range of reasons, such as reading a hysterical joke, a hiccup (not as dramatic), or reading Conservapedia in general.

How to perform a correct spittake[edit]

  1. Sit at a computer
  2. Place plastic foil over the mowse, keyboard, and screen. This will protect your computer.
  3. Flip to Fundies Say The Darndest Things, Conservapedia, or anything that will cause involuntary: Laughter, screams, or other bursts of air.
  4. Drink a beverage while reading. For the purpose of this exercise, you can use water, although the author of this article recommends Mountain Dew (after all, your computer is covered).
  5. Read away until you lose voluntary control and expel the contents of your mouth onto the computer.
