Once upon a time, in a kingdom not so far away (since we're doing local fruits)
where fruits rule the land, two weavers from Rambutan were brainstorming on the brief
they just received from the King & Queen to style a party for the annual royal ball:
"Lat's du sumting about the Rockal Floot..."
"You mean local fruits?"
"You mean local fruits?"
"Rockal Floot!"
"Rocker Fruits?"
"Watdewer."
"Any ideas?"
"Wi kan make a cop porn with floot favor."
"You mean pop corn with fruit flavor."
"Dats wat I sait wat."
"Should we have studs & spikes?"
"U min on da cop porn?"
"No, on the Rocker floots, I mean fruits. I don't think corn is consider as a fruit."
"hokaye~"
And so they went ahead & present the idea to the Queen &
got squashed as mocktails for the ball.
