I’m not real sure what “unopened, organic MDS milk”is, but anyone who ends a question with a ! deserves to lose it all. Besides-It was fucking delicious! There you have it.

“Can” implies a question if the person is able to do so…I’m sure the person who stole it is…but will (s)he ?
That is a new issue though.

If it has been stolen, how can it be replaced with same ? It can only be replaced with a different, yet equivalent facsimile of what was taken. He asks too much!

Maybe it isn’t stolen. It could just be misplaced…they didn’t witness the theft did they ?
Maybe it grew legs and walked away…like the microwave a few post’s back. Obviously it was being neglected if it wasn’t opened yet.

If she found her milk she would have realized that the “Dish ran away with the spoon”…….No cereal either!

Is it just me or is something funny? The last milk was past its sell by date and had curdled….now this. First someone can’t get rid of the milk, then here they can’t find it>

M&S is Marks and Spencer, quite the tony milk.
Unless it’s “MA’S milk”, ‘cuz she stored some freshly expressed breast milk in the office fridge…but I doubt she’s truly an organic mother.

This note seems to imply that if the milk had been opened, it could be stolen. But because it was unopened, heads must roll, dammit!

Maybe its a little bit of Greek lettering (??S)? “Mu Delta S” Milk?

I love that there’s loads of debate over the name, even though most British will tell you it stands for Marks and Spencer (M&S) milk.

So what I have learned so far
Trader Joe’s Sushi and M&S milk are STRICTLY off limits.
Here is the thing, the only “Organic M&S” milk worth stealing IS unopened. Once opened your chemical free, unpasteurized milk will turn quickly to sludge and then YOU (much like Ashley in Chicago) will be getting the PA notes.
Also are WE sure that Donika is a name? Perhaps it is a tragically misspelled attempt at being cosmopolitan with the traditional PA closing of “Thanks.” Could it not have been intended to be “Danka?”

Marks and Spencer?? Dammit- the whole time I was hoping it was an abbreviation for Muscle Milk.
Donika is the perfect androgynous gym rat name.

My Donnie lies over the ocean.
(Is Donnie a he or a she?)
My Donnie cries, over the ocean,
“Oh bring back my milky to me!
Bring back, bring back,
Oh bring back my milky to me, to me!
Bring back, bring back,
My Marks and Sparks milky to me!”

Excuse me for not getting the significance of these highly dangerous milk stealing bandits. Maybe it was an emergency and they needed some for their cereal? Maybe they didn’t think it was such a big deal to drink your milk because milk (normal milk anyway) costs, what, 2 bucks? And maybe you’ve eaten some of their stuff in the past, so they think you’re about even steven in the food pilfering department?
I dunno. Never really had roommates so I don’t identify so much with all these pennypinching psychotic episodes surrounding people consuming other people’s food/beverages.
I’d be more of the mindset of, “let the guy drink the milk, he was hungry.” instead of going all “Revenge is mine!” on his ass.

Ok, seriously i see nothing wrong w/wanting people to replace shit that they stole. Clearly this person doesn’t have a lot of money, she has roommates, therefore when she buys something she probably wants to be the one to use/enjoy it. I think everyone feels this way. If not, i’m coming over and taking everything. Thanks!

What if the milk-stealer replaces it with Gustafson’s Milk?
I’ll bet Gustafson’s beats M & S hands down.
(just like the NBC Office beats the BBC Office)

Could this be the missing milk?

If so, I TOTALLY understand Donika’s fury. Not only is it chocolate, it’s in a loverly keepsake shoe, and it’s got booze! And, at £9.50 it is definitely worth whining about.
Hmmmm.. it’s not organic, though.

It seems to me this “milk-thing” is going global, and I, for one, and very worried…. From Ashley in Chicago to …. ? Danny Kaye? across the Pond, I think we have something to fear.
Just went to check my Organic Soy Lowfat Opened Container (which must be consumed within 7 days or it, too, will turn to sludge) only to find it present and accounted for.
Whooo. Crisis Averted.

Sure, c’mon over to my swingin’ bachelor pad and enjoy some free milk on me!
Or rather, not ON me, um, ’cause I’m not into that kind of thing, really. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. If you are.

It freaks me out about milk lately: All the crap they put in those cows including anitbiotics and growth hormones and chemicals plus all sorts of possible hoof & mouth diseases to boot.
I think she should be grateful someone stole her milk, even organic milk….who can trust it? Drink soy milk or rice milk instead…..and chain it to the fridge.

@23.1: So…. it is ok to steal from others… so long as it is something expensive or they have money to spend on something nice in one area of their life?

The name Donika leads me to one conclusion:
these are the painkiller rantings of a post-op tranny, previously known as Don.
