The Grocery List

infinite monkey · 03-22-2013, 09:16 AM

Last summer I went to my friend's house and she showed me a grocery list she had made a day or two earlier. She couldn't figure out everything she wrote on it. She was really drunk at the time.

We took it to meet up with friends at a bar one summer afternoon, and it was hilarious asking people what they thought it said.

Knowing the answers, they all seem easy to me now. But there were two in particular that took some time to figure out. So I told her I'd post it online and I just found it in my purse a couple days ago.

So, can you name everything on my friend's grocery list? It might not be as mysterious as I remember.

Bonus question: from whom did she get that paper and where did whom get it?

The only one I'm a little unsure about is third from the bottom. My instinct would be cocoa, but in that case it's misspelled--so I'm thinking it could also be Coca-Cola, since she also abbreviated "dressing" as "Dr." higher up. But with the milk, butter, vanilla, and sucralose also on there, I'm betting it's cocoa.

You're right...that one's cocoa.

I can't figure out that cocaine one, or the bath mat one, or the succotash one. The rest I got.

Hahhahaaaaa!

Well, that was fun.

So ends the newest craze in game shows: The Grocery List.

(wahhhh wahhhhh wahhhhhhhhhh) <----Pacman loser sound.

glatt · 03-22-2013, 09:24 AM

But that's not really a bath mat and succotash, is it?

infinite monkey · 03-22-2013, 09:25 AM

Yeah, it really is!

glatt · 03-22-2013, 09:25 AM

I mean, who actually buys succotash? It just comes on your tray in the school cafeteria.

Clodfobble · 03-22-2013, 09:27 AM

Well hang on then, I was wrong--I thought "succotash" was "sucralose."

I assumed that having "bath mat" on there just meant she shopped for groceries at a WalMart.

I think it was an Aldi trip. My friend wouldn't know from 'sucralose.'

This is my buddy who uses the wrong words a LOT. I write them down. Yes, she knows about it. We have quite the laugh when I pull out my old notes. Maybe we're just acting juvial. But she made out like a banshee on free beers at our grocery list session. Don't forget, to slander someone is ethnically wrong. She has a short extensions span, cannot diaphragm a sentence, and has one of those fans that ovulates.

But I love her. She is really funny.
