There are none so blind as those that cannot see

Today's MMCD award goes to...

Lady: *walks into the store, peruses the wine rack, places a hand on the Carlo Rossi*
Lady: "Meron ba kayong Carlo Rossi?" (Do you have any Carlo Rossi?)
Lady's Husband: "Yung hinahawakan mo, o." (You're already holding it.)
Lady: *turns to us* "Ito ba yung grapes?" (Is this the grape one?)

Well, in the same way that I could hold up a cake and tell you it's a sack of flour, yes, it's the grape one.

So many ways to go here:

1. Oh no, we just ran out of the grape ones...

2. No, that one is made with raisins...

3. Yes, that is the grape one, but I highly recommend the pineapple one too...

4. Give her the silent, "I just don't know how to respond to that" stare and then start complaining of stomach cramps and run away quickly.

I think you should have a special "double whammy" MMCD award since this woman obviously deserved such a distinction...

and my parting shot: "There are none so ignorant as those who simply clueless."
