Ah, burples... my one true love! Let me tell you all a story... It was the night of my wedding, and I was a very nervous man! My friend, he was the best man, came in to check on me. I told him I was so nervous I couldn't even move from the chair I was sitting in! He ran to his bag and took out a container that looked very odd. He ran to the sink, stretched the container, and added water. At this point, I became very confused. He passed the container to me and I gave him a puzzled look. He told me to drink it, so I took a sip. By then, I was hooked. I drank the rest of the container and demanded to know what it was called. My friend, Kianu, said they were called Burples. So I grabbed him by the collar and screamed in his face "WE GOTTA GET MORE BURPLES!" So Kianu and I jumped in his car and raced off to the supermarket. Meanwhile, the priest was waiting to start the ceremony. I missed the wedding, all because I needed more Burples, and I never saw my dear fiance, Evi, again. Now, I live in an apartment building, where fourteen boxes of Burples are delivered per day. I should have never signed that paper...

Hello Angus, Evi, Flarten... I'm not sure what went on here, but Angus asked me to update him on my life... First of all, my children are all fine, all 2385934201823439020594309543 of them! I remarried my ex-wife about 3 days ago and all of those children belong to us! We adopted most, but we had triplets together! We were dating for 35 years, and we just got married 3 days ago! I was dating her when you and Evi were supposed to get married! I lied to you the whole time! But she and I and our 2385934201823439020594309543 kids are all well!

You guys are going to get me fired from my job. I'm trying not to crack up over here. Seriously, you have problems...

Well I have an actual burple story not a soap opera story. To be one of the popular kids, you HAD to have a burple. I remember them mainly in orange and in purple.

In my youth, I also tread Indiana soil. Riding home from little league, I dumped my Grape-flavored Burple out the window of the family car, as I'd added too much water. Then I saw a dead dog in the middle of the road.

My most vivid memory of these? My brother and I partially filling the empty container with water and flinging it at each other in the swimming pool. It made a rather impressive splash... and hurt like hell if it hit you!

Yes!! When you were done drinking them, the containers were great for storing your diarrhea.

I was being serious. Where else would you store it, especially when your parakeet won't even eat it!

You people must be from the suburbs. In the city we had "quarter drinks" and they were the best tasting fruit drinks ever!

I would love to find someone with some for sale. Even old just to have for memory sake. Loved the purple.
Emily - December 15, 2015 - Report this comment
For many years, I thought I just imagined this as no one remembered what I was talking about. LOL.

My brother and I would drink enough, then line them up in our garage, grab a wiffle ball and we created "Burple Bowling"
