Oh Xenia!

Brown ice cubes are never good.

Joel was horrified to find trays of brown cubes in his freezer trays while making himself a late-night dick shake. He questioned his chimp servant Chad Yarborough about it, and it didn't know anything and continued to play The Smurfs on Colecovision.

After checking the tap- which was clean– Joel examined the refrigerator connections and plumbing in the basement. Everything checked out, so he just threw the cubes away and chalked it up as a fluke.

The next day, the ice cubes were brown again! Joel is utterly baffled at this point. If you have any information about why Joel's cubes are brown, call 1-877-BROWN-ICE and tell them your theory. Joel is almost certain this is not dick-related, however.
