I don’t know what that is, but I agree with him.

I’m with Scooter on this one, those things are addictive.

From Not Always Right :

(I’m in a store I don’t technically work for, but I am counting their inventory. I’m near the candy aisle. Customers love to think that I actually work for the store, and since I know certain aspects well, I will generally help them out.)

Customer: “You guys don’t have malted milk balls here?”

Me: “If you look, there’s either Maltesers or Whoppers in this aisle.” thinking: they are essentially malted milk balls, just with brand names

Customer: is not having what I just suggested “Nope, nope. You guys don’t have malted milk balls, and they are so good.”

(Well, you can’t help everyone.)

At least this is not one of those Klondike bar commercials.

For doing that? I would give her another malted milk ball. And maybe take her to amateur night at some strip club. I bet she wins first prize.

“How about a scotch — single or double malt is fine by me,” Rusty blurts unexpectedly.

Not one? How about two then?

I’d use the “no chocolate for dogs” excuse for keeping all the malted milk balls for myself.

DON’T FEED YOUR DOG CHOCOLATE! Duh.

Unusually well pressed trousers today.

“Bark!” (“Well then, how ’bout a Milk, Dud?”)

A pole dancing hound ?

Good morning Balladeers!

That last one must have been a Whopper!!

Setting boundaries, yeah that’ll work.

Did he get some edibles from the Korova Milkbar?

he actually wants some malted beer balls…

My mom loved malted milk balls. I didn’t appreciate them until later in life. I like Malted Milk bars too.
