A huge honeydew melon exploded on the dining room table last night.

[HopeHoops]

This was one of the largest melons I've ever bought. I only got it a couple days ago so I was a little shocked. My wife and kids were eating icecream and I went to pick up the melon to move it and BOOM! It blew a hole out one side and spewed seeds and liquid all over the table - flooded it and dripped onto the floor. It was not a pleasant cleanup. I've had them melt down before, but I've never had one explode before!

Sorry.

11. Sounds like it might have been fermenting inside. Hmm. Wonder what it tasted like ....

12. You'll have to ask the compost bin about that.

It had an express ticket.

[Moondog]

13. Yeah. Don't blame you for that. But you may have made some earthworms happy ....
