Krispy Kremes

I was walking through the grocery store and passed by the doughnut section. A little girl was spying the Krispy Kremes.

"No," her mother said, "I've had Krispy Kremes and they suck."

I froze mid-step. Did I just hear what I thought I heard? I couldn't possibly have heard what that woman said. That's not even possible.

But then it hit me; a sudden realization of the very real certainty that at some point earlier today I had stepped into an alternate universe where opposites were somehow true. That was the only possible explanation for the mother's behavior. The only explanation!
