Description
Just in case you’re confused: Trixie was eating that pony’s crackers the whole time. She didn’t notice that she had forgotten to take out her own packet.

Yeah, Reader’s Digest needs more pony. :P
I’m not complaining but merely stating an observation.
Gee, I wonder what it is.
Victory Chocolate?
I for one know I have done things similair to this, thought someone stole something of mine only to find it was a duplicate.
The only time I can think of though right off the top of my head was when I was in college and I thought someone moved my snow gloves from “my spot” at a table and could have caused them to get lost so I shoved them in my back pack. Later someone was going all around that room looking for their gloves, I looked in my back pack and found both pairs.
It is also a very VERY old urban story. The identity of the “perpetrator” is adjusted depending on the era and the location - it may be a bum, a black guy, a punk, etc. That does not mean it could not happen to Adams too - I’m sure it did - but the story itself goes back way longer.
I prefer the original radio show
It’s true. Read The Salmon of Doubt (a posthumous compilation of Douglas’s essays and final works). He talks about it in detail there.
is that true? that makes that funnier
Douglas Adams wrote that scene based on something that actually happened to him once, involving a package of biscuits (US: “cookies”). His biscuits were under his newspaper but he didn’t realize it, and so kept eating the biscuits in front of him, which actually belonged to the random stranger sitting across from him. It was only after the stranger left that he saw what had happened, and immediately decided to immortalize it in So Long & Thanks for All the Fish.
Perhaps you can still get his number?
Your lack of proper observation has thwarted you.
HAHA!
(ninja’d)
HA!
