One day in 1994, just prior to the release of Nirvana's "In Utero", our Seattle alt station KNDD played the record in it's entirety in the early evening. I sat my parents down in the living room, and we listened (some of us reluctanty) to it on the crummy Panasonic all-in-one system I think they still have (Note to our kids: someday you'll thank us for that Earth-wrecker in the living room). Following one particularly noisy song, my dad said "That was silly - that song could've been about anything. They might as well have called it 'Milk Bottles'". The song ended, and Marco Collins back announced "You just heard 'Milk It'.." and I looked over at Duane, who grinning smugly and gently giggling.
He got his a few years later when he said "Kurt Mobain" within earshot of my mom, who still teases him to this day.
