Muddy and XXX Rum.....in detail!

I think Harish missed out on certain very important aspects
of Muddy's rum story.
It started with us sending Muddy out to get rum for himself.
Muddy, being the innocent ignorant idiot, wanted our advice.
He was clearly told to buy "Khoday's XXX Rum".
Muddy returns with a bottle of rum.On unwrapping, we saw that
the idiot had got some unheard of obscure stuff labelled
"Amruth XXX Rum". Well, a lot of jaws dropped thanks to Muddy's discovery
of a new brand of rum. Somehow, all of us were in a generous mood and attributed
it to the shopkeeper misguiding poor innocent Muddy!
But guess what muddy's story was?
Muddy: "No man, that guy suggested Khoday's rum itself"
Us: "Then why the f*** did you get this stuff?"
Muddy: "Well, it said XXX Rum, so I asked him about it"
Us: "And?"
Muddy: "This cost 40 bucks, and that Khoday's stuff you guys suggested cost 45 bucks"

All I'll say is, no one drank a drop of "Amruth XXX Rum" that night.
