Seriously, don’t drink a chocolate milk and orange juice cocktail.

Ha! Ha! I actually have an exam on the scientific method today, so I consider reading your post as a good luck charm! :)
-
Good luck! If you need to get out of it… you know what to drink!
-
-
Great work! Love this stuff!!
-
Thanks!
-
-
Awesome post! I tried this once when I was little… No bueno!
-
It is the worst drink I have ever tasted.
-
I tried this too! along with putting the thermometer up to the light bulb so my mom would think I had a fever… that one didn’t work as well…
-
-
-
Moaning under the covers didn’t work?
-
Mom knew all the secrets, having been an expert class-skipper herself. If you wanted to skip in our house, you had better be committed.
-
-
That’s some dedication to school-skipping. I would have just poured the stuff on the floor and pretended it was puke. She had real follow-through.
-
My mom is a very clever lady. She would not have fallen for that :)
-
-
Chrissy is the funniest person in the whole world, and I don’t think she realizes it.
-
True
-
-
hahaha! sounds like a terrible concoction.
-
I drank it once. Never, never, never again.
-
-
I agree with that last frame. School is the best!
-
Seriously. I love school.
-
-
I used to do this too! Fever or puking were the only two ways to get out of school in our house.
-
You guys who say you used to do it, too, are making my day.
-
-
This is even more brilliant than when Elliott put his thermometer against a
Iightbulb on the movie E.T. Or maybe not because this way the person actually gets sick.The other day I almost mixed up for my daughter a purple cow, which I thought to be grape juice and milk…perhaps I need to revisit that recipe first.
May I reblog this? I’ve been wanting to promote your blog on my site for some time now but wasn’t sure how — aside from requesting you to do a guest post, which, with your time-intensive work, would be like asking you to build my kids a treehouse.
-
Thanks! You can re-blog at will :) I’ve never heard of a purple cow. Sounds dangerous.
-
A purple cow is grape pop with vanilla ice cream in it, like a float.
-
-
Booo, I was hoping for a nice and gentle comic strip that would enable me to understand E=mc2.
Good detail on the rucksack here when the perspective changes.
-
Sorry to disappoint! Maybe next project I’ll team up with my scientist husband to develop a comic that explains scientific principles… and it will be the least popular comic of all time :D
-
-
I did do this once, by accident, at breakfast – then I had to sit in the boot of a car while we went sightseeing with my folks in cornwall. That was unpleasant.
-
Ugh, my stomach turns at the mere thought…
-
-
Hello again! I wandered over from Angie’s blog to see what all the ruckus was about. Now I see this place is eminently ruckus-worthy.
I was kind of expecting vomit executed in confetti at the end. Thanks for not taking us there.
-
Yay! Thank you! If you don’t like vomit, I’d suggest skipping over the one entitled “…And a Happy New Year!”
-
-
There was a girl in my kindergarden class that could make herself puke at will (without sticking her finger down her throut). Not sure if she had an undiagnosed medical condition or something like that, but let me tell you she was the center of admiration and secret envy ;)
-
Wow. I hope she stopped eventually. I’m concerned for her teeth.
-
-
Reblogged this on A Geek of 20/20 vision.
-
She was almost as resourceful as Ferris Bueller! Much more dedicated, though.
-
I wish I knew what Chrissy did on her day off. One day I’ll have to pick her brain.
-
I was going to ask you that! Danke Schoen for thinking of it first ;)
-
-
-
Hahaha I dunno if you remember that classic 80’s movie Heathers, but Winona Ryder specifically cites “milk and orange juice” as a barf-worthy concoction. Of course, Christian Slater switches that concoction with liquid drain-o instead… which just kills their victim instead. But I digress…
-
Hahaha, I didn’t remember that!
-
-
This is the best blog ever. Thank you for taking the time to continue creating it. Each new entry totally makes my day.
-
Thank you, you are too kind :)
-
-
I love the creativity of your blog. The stories always make me laugh.
-
Thank you, I’m glad I can make people laugh!
-
-
Well now I know that milk and oj is NOT the recipe for an orange and cream-flavored anything. Sounds horrible.
-
Yeah, I think there’s a little more to the goodness that is orange-and-cream.
-
-
I’m one of four sisters, and this reminds me of several times when we played games and the loser had to drink a mystery concoction, created by the winner. Definitely milk and OJ as the base, and possibly some hot sauce for good measure. Cruel!
-
Very!

Reblogged this on Childhood Relived and commented:
I read in WordPress’ news update that reblogging is back. And since I don’t eat pork, I thought this was way more exciting than hearing news that McRib is back. Though slightly less exciting than when I heard that disco is back. (Turns out the last one was a false alarm. Fortunately, I can still do the Hustle alone at home to my Bee Gees albums. Unfortunately, I can’t return the frosted teal eye shadow.)I’ve been wanting to promote The Middlest Sister on my blog for some time now. Amazing, talent up the ying-yang and laugh-out-loud-funny. Plus, if you don’t have the time to read blogs, this one practically reads itself (if that even means anything). Although, don’t hustle through it too quickly (for one, the Hustle is not back). Because the tiny details in her work are the best part. And you need to linger a bit to catch those.
I thought about asking Nicki to do a guest post on my blog. But if you knew how long she spends on just a single frame of a single post, you would know that this would be like me asking her to give me a kidney or something.
I urge you to not only check out this newest post but subscribe to her blog. It’s like getting a little dose of happy in your inbox every week. Sometimes twice a week. The frequency really all depends on whether Nicki’s scissor elbow is acting up.
Important to note, Nicki (the blog creator) is not the middlest sister. She’s the oldest sister. Chrissy, the blonde, is the middlest and apparently the one whose antics made her most worthy of being the featured attraction. You can see for yourself why. She reminds me so much of a certain bratass kid I knew once. Yes, that’s right. Me.
Enjoy.
-
Holy cow, Nicki — I didn’t realize this whoooooole thing would appear on your blog. Sorry for cluttering up your comment page.
-
Are you kidding? I love it.
-

This had me in tears. Reminded me of what my brothers pulled once. They told me they were making me a “special” chocolate shake and I believed them. I slurped it down and at the bottom was a lovely concoction of tabasco sauce, pepper and ketchup.
-
Ohh wicked!
-
-
I am a dude. Yet I am here because Angie sent me. Very cool blog concept!
-
It’s okay. 40% of my readers are dudes. Probably.
-
-
Thank you for an idea the next time I need to avoid work.
-
At the same time I apologize for writing the clunkiest sentence in the history of written language.
-
It’s so horrible, it should be used in only the most dire situations. I still gag just thinking about it.
-
-
-
I love this!!
I’ve always liked having a good piece of chocolate with a drink of orange juice though…the orange brings out the sweetness of the chocolate, and the chocolate brings out the sharpness of the orange juice.
does this make me weird?-
Oh, not at all. I LOVE orange and chocolate together.
-
-
That sounds like a game my sister and I would play. We’d mix what we found in the fridge and pantry, and the other had to drink it. The only rule – no poison. Fun times.
-
haha, luckily, we never played that game. I have a very weak stomach.
-
-
Scientific Question: did you mix this cocktail before the writeup to see what the color of the mixture was?
Thank you for Chrissy’s puke noise. I discovered this week that Aunt Charlotte does the same one.
-
Hah, no, that was based on memory. It makes me very happy to know that that puke noise runs in the family.
-
-
I love your blog! Very creative. This one reminds me of something I’ve always found puzzling…why did anybody ever go to Orange Julius? Orange juice + dairy products = bad news.
-
I LOVE orange juliuses… julii?… I’ve only ever had homemade ones, though. Ohh, I want one now.
-
-
This is hilarious! My middlest sister could practically puke on command as a kid, and I’m afraid my daughter might have inherited the same puking gene. So glad to have found your blog!
-
Thanks! I can practically puke on command, since I get nauseous if I shake my head “no” too quickly :P
-
-
LOL, If I only I thought of that tactic as a kid :) But, I loved school when I was a kid and by the time I wanted to play hooky, I was in college and living in a dorm so I’d have self-declared holidays instead ; )
Love, love your blog and I nominated you for the Versatile Blogger Award :)
http://polkadotribbeaux.wordpress.com/2012/02/07/the-versatile-blogger-award/-
Thank you! :D
-
-
LOL! So THAT’S how you spell the sound you make when you puke.
-
Have heard such stories from my father’s childhood, though I never dared to try any of them. This was really interesting. Great work!
-
This should be tagged as a public service announcement. I was seriously sitting down at the computer with a tall glass of chocolate milk and orange juice when I read this.
-
hahhahaa… love it… just hopped over from Childhood Relived… wonderful work!
That last frame is me – i love school ;)
