Lactose!
Bought some soy milk from 'Not Quite Right' (the clearance supermarket) and, having added some chocolate and malt powder, drank a glass of the stuff. I got sick! This ought not to happen. The reason I drink soy milk and not cow milk is because I am lactose intolerant. Yep, my body is a regular Joseph Stalin when it comes to lactose. (If only it would be that way about other kinds of fat that I find so delectable...) Anyway, I drank the stuff and, lo and behold, I started feeling that familiar dizziness and nausea caused by lactose. It seems that what is 'not quite right' about these cartons of soy milk is that somehow they contain lactose. Oh, well, that's all part of the gamble that is shopping at 'Not Quite Right' - a gamble that usually pays nice dividends.
Kind of like this blog, actually. Often the posts are worthwhile (well, in my own very special, self-delusional way I like to think that they are so to some degree, anyway - to someone out there) but occasionally you get a nauseatingly dull one like this. Just have a lie down and the horrible feeling should pass soon enough.
Ahhh, that’s the way!

EEEEK...
Lactose intolerant... Means you can't have ice-cream. Or sour cream. Or cheese made from cows milk of any sort. :(
Not fun.
Not good for having your photo taken either. Gosh. Poor joke. If no-one gets it, it has something to do with what you say when someone asks you to smile for the camera. Gee, that doesn't help, the joke still remains poorly.
Rups :)
DN: Actually, I can and I think most lactose intolerant people can eat most cow milk cheese and sour cream. I can eat ice-cream, too, but I think more severely lactose intolerant people cannot. I'm not highly l.i. but certainly enough that a glass of cow milk will knock me on mi arse. I can live with that. :-)
R: Your bad punning is like a whiff of really pungent limberger! :-)
N1F: I wish I had have been privy to this incident of beautiful laughter from you.
