So, after an intense DDR workout I decide it’s time to hit up the usual vending machine on the way home.
I wanted to drink a Coke, is all. Something like this:
So after slamming in my 150 yen and carrying the cool, sweet can back to the car, nothing struck me as odd. Feels cold, yep, feels heavy, like usual. I can’t wait to down this in one go.
Wonder why it says “Happy Kan” on the side in weird kataka- oh well whatever, Japan is weird like that.
So I am about to get stuck in whennnn it won’t open.
Yeah.
The ring pull is welded to the top of the can. Then I notice there’s a little opening near the top, so I twist the, uh, lid, and then… this comes out:
Uh, a pair of headphones and, wait, are those weights?
Yeah! They totally are! Giant, red, plastic weights. Why? Oh, just to make it feel like a real can of Coke of course!
The little note inside reads in Japanese: “Congratulations on your special can of Coke!” …the hell?
MORE LIKE CONGRATS ON SOME SHITTY HEADPHONES AND SOME WEIGHTS.
So here I am, cokeless and thirsty. Trolled by Coke, trolled by Japan.
Damnit.
Do they sell RC Cola in Japan? I’d love to visit Japan but the thought of no RC whilst I’m there gives me the shakes
What’s RC Cola? D:
*Googles*

This isn’t sold here. Just Coke, Coke Zero, Pepsi, Pepsi Nex.
That’s the stuff.
Damn. I like it better than Coke or Pepsi :/
Coke Zero is my fave. NO CALORIES.
