This weekend is Chicago’s big gay pride parade and festival. Dieter has “befriended” a 10 year old boy that lives on the same floor as him in his apartment complex. Dieter says the boy is overweight, so he told him he should make himself vomit after eating because his mother feeds him all junk food (he told the boy this in front of his mom). The boy also told Dieter that his father is gay (the parents are divorced) and that he is taking him to the gay pride parade this weekend. Dieter is now on a mission to make sure the dad does not take him to the parade. Several callers and Jenna the Virgin Intern (who was on a float last year) said that there is a lot of groping and simulated sex that goes on.

Rover told a story this morning about seeing a man being beaten up. Rover verbally told the assailant to stop. A friend of the assailant told Rover he would beat him up if he tried to jump in. Rover watched as the man was beaten and the assailant and friend ran away. The man who was beaten then chastized Rover for not helping him. Dieter and Duji both said Rover should have done something. I’m sure if Dieter was in the same situation he would have jumped in, he is much bigger than Rover.

Today was Jenna the Virgin Intern’s last day on the show. She is starting her new marketing job on Monday. She got gifts for everyone on the show and also sang a special song she wrote. At the end of the song she said she is ready to give up her virginity. Maybe she will get a chance to meet Anton Apollo Ono with the new job. I’m sure she will do well.

There have been a lot of videos on the internet lately of people putting Mentos into Diet Coke. This creates a chemical reaction and the soda shoots like a geiser into the air. People also turn the bottles upside down and shoot the Diet Coke bottles like rockets after putting the Mentos in.

Dieter started out by mixing the Mentos and Diet Coke in his mouth a couple times. You could hear the pressure as the Diet Coke would shoot out of his mouth. Dieter then shook up a bottle of Diet Coke for some reason and sprayed it all over the new studio. I’m sure Drewpolian will be thrilled about that.

Dieter then chewed up and ate seven mentos and then swallowed several more whole. He then chugged some Diet Coke. Almost immediately he began to burp like crazy. He then downed a few more mentos. He continued burping and was burping up foam. He started to complain about the pain in his stomach and do his usual groan. As the burping and pain increased, he actually attempted to give himself the Heimlich Maneuver over the bakc of the chair. He was unable to get himself to vomit and eventually just took up his usual fetal position on the floor of the studio.
