What The?.....


I was in Brisvegas a few weekends ago for our 20 Year School reunion ( Can you believe it???), which I haven't posted about yet, cause I'm not sure where to start with that one....but anyway, on the Sunday Marnz & I were in the video shop picking out a couple of movies to chill to cause it had been a very long weekend, and well, that's just what you do when you want to recover isn't it?. So we had picked a couple of movies & while we were standing at the counter I happened to look down & see a packet that said Milk Duds. I mumble under my breath, What the?, while looking very puzzled at the packet. Marni who was busy paying asked me what I said, and so I pointed to the packet & said Milk Duds, what the hell are milk duds. Well that was the end of our apparently normal socially acceptable behaviour in the video shop. We went into absolute hysterics. No, I mean, serious, uncontrollable, tear jerking, pant wetting hysterics!. The poor young girl at the checkout didn't quite know what to do, and at one stage I saw her give us a look of , Ok now I think these guys are complete loonies!. I did manage to squeal out the comment of, Do they mean Milk Buds?, which just made us laugh even harder. It was then that she couldn't hold back also & I saw her have a little giggle......we know laughter is infectious no matter how ridiculous the subject matter!. So eventually we laughed our way out of the shop trying to see through our tears, Oh, and with the packet of milk duds, which I somehow managed to put into the whole transaction. So when we got home I gave the packet to Juan thinking that for sure he would get a real kick out of them and he just said thanks with a puzzling look because we were standing there waiting for his reaction!. I say, check it out, it says Milk DUDS, and he says yeah, there's White DUDS too you know!. This ridiculous little episode has kept me laughing for the past few weeks. Every now & then while I'm washing up or doing some other mundane chore around the house, this little episode pops into my head & I find myself having a right little chuckle. Ah, good times.......Hope you are also laughing at some funny little memories too........
P.S Are these for real, because I have never seen them before.....and we didn't open them in the end, so I have no idea wether or not they really just are Milk Buds, and what is it that makes them a milk DUD....ok I should really stop now..........!
