Lesson learned
When one is in a Yoghurt Mountain store, surrounded by hordes of Social Justice Weenie mothers and their noisy brats children, and one comes across a yoghurt flavor labeled 'Tiger's Blood', one should not refer to it, loudly, as 'Cecil's blood'.
That is all.

(P.S.: It's a delicious flavor, despite its name!)
I have done similer...A few years ago we were at F.A.O Schwartz in New York, I was in the stuffed animals, the spousal unit was a bit away from me....I saw a stuffed baby seal...Well I pick it up..held it above my head and commented a bit loud "Hey Sweetie!! I used to club these things in the early 80's....." Man the looks I got from the wife and the people was priceless:)
Should have answered the howls of protest with "Okay, how about we have some baby's blood instead? Would that be better?" (Planned Parenthood reference) :-P
Reminds me of the time I was eating lunch with a church group. The Reverend was talking about how her father provided shelter for the deer on his land, and how cute she thought they were and I replied with, "I can understand why he did that. Venison is really tasty."
I'm surrounded by them http://yogurtmountain.com/locations/ and darned thankful to whatever reason has kept them away. At least the denizens of Starboinks tend to leave their spawn at home or locked in the car so that I can get a slice of banana-nut bread while only having to deal with those over 5 feet tall.
Hahaha! You are a bad, bad man! :-D

I am quite frankly shocked and disgusted, sir! How dare you engage in such heartless, thoughtless, and generally mean-spirited activities.
ReplyDeleteWithout filming them for our amusement, I mean. ;-)
Seriously, I'd have paid good money to see that!
