...and I hear this woman on her phone behind me, but it's not her talking that catches my attention... it's the maraca-like, rythmic rattling of the sugar packets.

After three or four shakes, I had to turn around and see what the heck was going on.

Three or four more after that, I had to break out the camera and see if I could capture some of this magic...

    Holy sh@t.


    She must have had over 30 packs. But I think it was Splenda. I use Splenda and thats their color.

    But even so, waaaay too much

    That will be a viral video if you want it to be. Better go slap up some Adsense real quick LOL

      I was totally minding my own business until this lady invaded my ear space (and I was wearing headphones) with her phone yammering and her Splenda cha-cha. This was going on for a good two minutes before I started filming.

      Don't hate so easy. It's not healthy.

        Sweet yammering maracas, that is a weirdly disturbing video.

      Wow, "hate" ? Kind of strong don't you think.

      I thought it was humorous. There are a lot more intrusive videos than this on the Internet

        Yes I admit hate was rather too strong. Ok, annoying would be more appropriate.

      I'm lost. You wasted your time how? By watching the video that was basically exactly as described? Or were you somehow misled somehow by the description?

      I don't get it.

        Yea, you're lost.

        Go to the park and think about it for a few hours.

    Why do garden gnomes smell so bad?
    So that blind people can hate them as well.

      You are referring to me, yes?

      You find nothing peculiar or humorous about a woman pouring 50+ packets of Splenda into her coffee? Let alone having an iphone plastered to her face by way of her headphones?

    Did she drink the coffee after doing this? That would be the most interesting bit?
