OK, now think for a moment.
How many cans have been featured on Lost?
First there’s the repeated refrain, “Don’t tell me what I CAN’t do!”
Then there are CANS that the Dharma Initiative training movies are stored in.
Most the the Dharma food that is air-dropped on the Island comes in CANS.
Paolo hides $8 million in diamonds in the Pearl Station CAN.
The Losties eat lots of fruit, and a common fruit is CANtalope.
The first thing that Kate eats when she finds the larder in the Swan Station is a CANdy bar.
Due to the writers’ strike, the series was almost CANcelled.
The freighter’s crew is reduced to eating nothing but CANned lima beans.
Much of the plot is plagiarized from CANterbury Tales (ok this last one is a joke but I’m dead, Lostdead, about the rest)…
Anybody see a pattern here?
If so, please tell me! I CAN’t take any more!!!

I need to go to the toilet (CAN).
you have just opened up a can of worms lol
That you can do.
This whole theory is uncanny.
Hmm. A CAN of worms?
Or maybe a CAN of wormHOLES???
Hmmmm!
Before I forget: The Dharma beer that Hugo, Sun, Sawyer, and “Skeletor” drank came in CANS.
And then after every one of Hurley’s witticisms, there’s that darn CANned laugh track… lifted of course from “That 70’s Show”…
;-)
I think CANned laughter is your only hope my friend.
the whupass that Sawyer put on Ben came from a CAN
CAN is CON with an A instead of an O…
Locke’s dad pulls his last con job pretending he’s an electronics entrepreneur from CANada.
LOST fans regard any information in the show as CANon.
Getting kinda spooky!
Reminds me of that scene at the gas station in “The Jerk”…
(cans begin to pop on the display Navin is standing next to)
Navin: Hey Harry, look at this! What’s the matter with these cans?
Madman: Die milk face!
(more cans pop)
Navin: These cans are defective - they’re springing leaks! Come over here and look at this!
Harry: Listen, you better run for cover or you’re going to spring a leak!
Navin: Huh?
Harry: We don’t have defective cans, we have a defective person out there!
Navin: He hates these cans! Stay away from the cans!
Madman: Die gas pumper!
all I got is, Rose had CANcer, and Marvin CANdle is your Swan Station (not hatch, thanks AC)cruise director.
I CAN’t think of any good ones, but I CAN give you a +1 for the fun of it!!
Well,if you CAN +1 then I CAN +1..CANny Annie ;)
CAN it you two.
Sorry, that sounded a bit CANtankerous to be perfectly CANdid.
We CAN’t forget the Dharma beer CANs.
I CAN’t!
I CAN!
CANnonball!!!
The island is volCANic.
I wonder if Jin has caught a coeloCANth…
Juliet has some nice CANtaloupes. :-P~ <– drool
Ben displayed uncommon CANdor in the meeting with Locke’s camp members.
Im sure Hurly smokes CANnibis
When Naomi was delerious after crash-parachuting onto the Island, she mumbled something in every foreign language, except for CANtonese!
Explain THAT, you CANspiracy theorists!!!
Remember the tailie who was from CANada? I wonder how long it will take for them all to turn to CANnibals? Oh yeah, and are the mobisodes CANon or what?
