I'd Like To Buy the World an Ancient, Fetid Coke


The only question more frightening than "Who would buy such a thing?" is "Who would sell such a thing?" This half-evaporated bottle of antique ooze had a price tag of $8. Someone found this rancid old thing in a garage and, instead of pitching it into the garbage in horror, stuck a price tag on it.

"Eight dollars," they thought. "That's what someone would pay for this vile ichor."

That encrustation on the bottom of the bottle is what scientists call "fucking gross ass shit," and is a tell-tale sign that this item should have been incinerated by the CDC.

A useful tip for all of you would-be antiquarians out there: Sometimes age increases an object's value. More often, age renders an object into noxious slime that serves no useful purpose to anyone anywhere.
