A 20 liter (5.3 gallon), handled can meant for transporting gas and other liquids, formerly constructed of pressed steel.
Jerry cans were developed in Germany in the 1930s and were widely used by American troops in WWII. Troops would Jerry-rig up to five of these cans to their vehicles, enabling them to carry gasoline, diesel fuel, kerosene, and/or water.
The term "Jerry" is a slang for the word "German".

Get the can shooter mug.When someone has a raunchy ass fart (preferably warm and must be odor filled), cups their hand over their ass, and catchs this bundle of joy. Your next move takes precise timing as you only have seconds to deliver this devastating smell by cupping your hand over the victims nose and/or mouth while stating "Can of Poop!"
