Durian Durian - Hungry Like a Wolf
(Paramore - That's What You Get)

I love durian. It's an exotic fruit that smells pungent but has a buttery sweet taste to it. The great thing about Asia is that it's readily available almost anywhere and in many different forms. The bad thing is, even some Asian people can't stand the smell.

Today after lunch I bought some durian mochis and brought them into the client office. Within 2 minutes I had sent half the office scrambling around to find out where the smell was. When they saw me eating the mochis, they looked at me and started to laugh.

I didn't care though. I have no shame.

Since last week I've had the following durian products...

durian mochis, durian ice cream and durian cake...

I wonder if they sell durian body lotion. My skin gets really dry in the winter.

How about some durian chewing gum? We had a few packs of that lying around when I was a kid.

I suppose 'fresh breath' won't be party of their commercial slogan.

Dude! The client should've put up this sign in the office:

The client didn't mind...they were just wondering who brought it in...haha...they were amused by it.
