I will not link to the video (you can find it with google) as it is far too revolting, but you can watch a “2 Girls 1 Cup reaction video” above – reaction videos have become a meme of their own; they feature video of people’s reactions when watching the original 2 girls 1 cup.

You should know this fad, you drop a mentos into a bottle of Diet Coke and a chemical reaction occurs causing a fountain effect.
