I was walking yesterday afternoon in a fairly busy suburban commercial area. I took a turn by a car stopped at a stop sign. When I was about five or 10 feet away, suddenly I heard a noise it sounded like rattatatta like a machine gun, though not loud like firearms. I was struck in the back with several somethings very lightly… Just enough to feel it, not enough to remotely hurt at all or even sting. Didn’t mark my clothes. I looked down on the ground and didn’t see whatever the projectiles were. I looked at the car and didn’t see anyone, just an open back window. Then they took off from the stop sign.

Does anyone know what they were using?

why is this not one way or the other?

addendum: wow, thanks everyone. I truly never knew it was a British vs. American spelling thing.

I don't really like it, so I didn't buy any.

Got them at Costco 2 months ago. So far I’ve eaten 6 cans. I’ve found a couple stems, but it’s okay overall (thanks Del Monte).

It was alright. I wore my special boots today because I thought I had to go to court, but I didn't. So I came home and walked to the liquor store. I bought a fifth of Svedka in a plastic bottle and have been drinking it with club soda.

This video has it all, too. Breakdancing, firespinning, karate, dancing on a piano, inappropriate sexual suggestions.
