The Murano Joke

I like shopping in Greenhills for accesories - swarowski crystals, murano, beads, fancy stones,
etc. You know those small tranparent crystals with colored crystals carved inside it - i like them the
first time I saw them, but I actually dont know how is it called. I only remembered somebody mentioned a sound like 'nano'. I passed by a stall and asked a sales lady, blurted out 'miss ano nga ulit tawag dito, almurano ba'

The lady said, 'maam, murano po ang tawag'.. and then she turned her back and suddenly she kept on giggling on her own. She was turning red in laughter. That was the time I realized I made a boo-boo. I said to myself, parang may sounds-like na term ang 'almurano' na disease pero hndi ko sure. I just walked away very fast hehe.

That night, I ym-ed my close friend whom I'm comfortable to ask all the most sane and insane
questions in this world.

'uy tama ba may sakit na tawag ay almoranas',

'anong sakit yun', (no replies)..

'bilis, asan ka ba'
(buzzed)

Finally after a minute, i saw this message popped in my screen.

'Sorry po, wala si kuya, kapatid nya to, hinatid nya kasi si mama''

'Sabihan ko na lng cya pag balik nya, gamit ko kasi PC nya ngyon :)'

HOLY COW!

As expected, the next time we got to talk in ym, my friend kept on teasing me. I had already made 'research' and knew that almoranas means hemorrhoids.

He typed, 'Ano ba yan, may almoranas ka ba, kawawa ka naman'

I retorted back 'hindi noh, kapal mo wala ako nun.. and started telling the story about the saleslady.

Okay, the incident was already worthy of being the silliest thing, gatungan pa nung ym message - grand slam shocker. :p
