Many years ago, my roommates and I got into a thing where we were making up blues songs about trivial things. Of course, all lyrics were preceded and/or followed by "nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh", as all blues must be. This went on for several weeks.

One night, we were sitting around watching TV, and a commercial came on TV for Warheads, one of the first really incredibly sour candies that hit the market. We had been sampling them from time to time, and so were familiar with them. Rick, my roomie and buddy since we were teens, looks over at Carrie and I and says, "I gave my parents a Warhead...", and out of the clear blue, we both went "nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh."

It was funny then. You had to be there. Really. See, he wasn't expecting it, and neither of us knew the other would do it, and...

Okay, maybe it wasn't that funny.
