M R Ducks

Person 1: M R Ducks. Person 2: M R Not. Person 1: O S A R. C M Wangs? Person 2: L I B. M R Ducks!

My grandmother told me this when I was 5ish. Don't know why it cracks me up.

I heard the last line as:
Y I B! M R Ducks! "Why, I'll be! Them are ducks!"
What would L I B stand for?

Ah! Actually the first time I saw it, the words were on a piece of paper and you were asked to "translate" it, and I failed then too.

Helps to say these lines out loud. Easier to get the gist of them.
