A point of clarification

[faithellen]

Regarding this entry:

The winner is 3fingeredsalute, for the word in question was "heat."

Not even *I* am desperate enough to eat pee-infused Duds.

(The complete transcription is: "Happiness is playing *all* weekend at the renaissance festival with my friends. Sadness is discovering that my bag of Milk Duds was exposed to heat, and it's a bag of Milk Dud.")

I was wondering how the Dog managed to pee on your candy from Germany!

"Pee Infused Duds" ... sounds like a new goth clothing company ... or maybe one that specializes in clothing re-sales for incontinent folks ...

[faithellen]

I bet you could do a brisk business on eBay with that last one.

Now knowing that this was the word, why oh why did you throw it away? Oh -- this was the time for you to use your creative skills and adaptive abilities to use a fork and a hammer to reduce the "Milk Dud" into ice-cream crumbles (if not a tiny but true reproduction of Michelangelo's "David").

Might have been good in a blender as a kind of DairyQueen "Blizzard", too!

Life is full of second chances, although I'm truly glad the rumors were not true that it met with some sort of horrific Martha Stewart urinal cake incident.

Dude, who says I threw it away? I wrested little bits from it to power me for the 3 hour drive home! :)

and it's a bag of Milk Dud.

Doh! I still had "end of bag of Milk Duds" in my head. Glad to see it wasn't a lost item.

I eat Skittles for primarily that reason -- they have a higher melting point. Of course, I have been known to carry them in my pocket, and sooner or later at body-temperature, it is possible (probable?) it turns to "Skittle", but even that is as bendy and eatable as one of those big "Air Heads" candy-sticks, although a little crunchier.

Dammit... and it's not even time for lunch yet!

"...although I'm truly glad the rumors were not true that it met with some sort of horrific Martha Stewart urinal cake incident."

didn't she feaure "Urinal Cakes" as part of her "Party Hosting in Jail" series?

[faithellen]

I don't know about that, but she did serve stale cupcakes at her reality show's wrap party.

*LOL* nice icon, too.

it's a real life application of the "telephone" game. i liked "end of bag of milk duds" too.

(still laughing)

LOL, I didn't think you'd eat them. I had a mental image of you going to a closet and going *sniff sniff* wtf did the dog do to my CHOCOLATE?!?!

And tossing them...

Glad to hear it was just a melting point issue, and they weren't wasted!

Ah! That makes much more sense, and sounds much more appetizing :-)

Though challenging to get the bits off (if it's cooled down too much), even a block of stuck together Milk Duds is quite edible if you want the chocolate/caramel fix.
